Security Gate Operation
Farm Gate in Action
MJ Endeavors is a family-owned business in McCreary, Manitoba, addressing rural and agricultural access challenges. We know that manually opening and closing gates wastes time, money, and poses a potential risk of injury from the repetitive use of the tractor steps, especially during livestock feeding. To combat this frustration, we created solutions that save valuable time, prevent injuries, and greatly reduce these costs. We've since expanded from farm gates to offer security, laneway, commercial, and industrial access control. Every "Lift & Go" gate is proudly made in Canada and built to handle extreme cold weather, mud, snow drifts, high winds, heavy rain, and anything else Mother Nature can throw at it. From our manufacturing base, we proudly ship our gate systems across Canada and the United States. Because you're buying directly from the manufacturer, there's no middleman—ensuring you get the best possible price and direct support from the people who build your gate.
Never leave your vehicle to open a gate again. Streamline agricultural operations, accelerate deliveries, and enjoy effortless property access.
Cut fuel waste from idling, reduce engine wear, and lower labor costs. Our gates provide a rapid return on investment, often within a single season.
A leading cause of farm injuries is slips and falls from equipment steps. Our gates eliminate this risk by keeping you in your cab. This helps you avoid repetitive strain on your knees and back while you stay safe, warm, and dry—out of the mud, snow, rain, and bitter cold.
Secure your property with controlled, reliable access. A "Lift & Go" automatic gate is a powerful deterrent for rural property security, protecting your valuable assets and giving you peace of mind.
Traditional cattle guards, Texas gates, and swing gates are not just unreliable—they can be dangerous. They can fail to contain your herd, get blocked by snow, and even cause serious injury, leading to costly vet bills or the tragic loss of an animal. Our vertical lift gates provide a solid, physical barrier, ensuring the safety and security of your herd without these risks.
Unreliable Containment
A Serious Safety Risk
Vulnerable to Weather
Unlike typical swing gates and Texas Gates, our Lift & Go gate is not affected by mud or heavy snow. Our unique upwards-pivoting gates allows for unlimited access for snow-clearing equipment. Constructed with heavy-gauge steel and a powder-coated finish, our gates are built to last with minimal maintenance.
Our systems feature a 30 to 50 watt, fully adjustable solar panel and an intelligent charge controller. This maintains a 12V deep-cycle battery, ensuring dependable power year-round, even on overcast days.
Operate your gate from up to 150 feet away with standard remotes. We also offer long-range options, waterproof keypads, and a manual override switch inside the lockable secure base.
The 1700-pound concrete base provides a rock-solid foundation that protects all components, yet it is easily portable. Just lift the gate base with your equipment's forks and move it to your desired new location.
Various sensors can be added to the control, including buried magnetic sensors, beam sensors, additional switches, and timers. The gate automatically stops when fully upright or closed. Additionally, it can be set to automatically close after a certain amount of time has passed.
Our gates are designed for simple setup. No digging, concrete work, or welding required. Simply set the base on level ground, attach the gate panel, and connect the solar panel.
As you approach, press the button on your remote. No need to stop or get out.
The gate smoothly pivots upwards, clearing the path well before you reach it.
Once clear, press the button again. The gate closes securely behind you as you drive away.

"Had an amazing experience purchasing our gate from MJ Endeavors. He took his time explaining all the parts and how to maintain it for best results. It is very well-made and has been the talk of our neighbourhood since we installed it. Customer service was excellent. Super friendly, accommodating and great communication."

Our standard automatic gates are 16 feet in length. Extensions can be added to the gates for greater length. Also, two gates can be combined to cover an entrance up to 32 feet wide, making them suitable for large agricultural equipment. (see gallery) Another option is to use our "Lift & Go" gate in conjunction with a typical swing gate. When the occasional extra-wide equipment is needed to pass through the opening, both gates can be opened; otherwise, our gate is used alone. (This involves having a removable post inserted in a pipe buried flush with the ground in the middle of the two gates)
The solar-powered gate system is designed for the Canadian climate. The 12V deep-cycle battery, maintained by the intelligent charge controller and solar panel, ensures reliable access control even during extended overcast periods.
Our gates are engineered specifically for the Canadian climate and are built to handle extreme cold weather, snow drifts, and high winds. Because the gate pivots upwards, it is not affected by heavy snow or mud on the ground, which is a common problem for traditional swing gates. This design also allows for unlimited access for snow-clearing equipment.
