[Just_Build_It]

Hydro's were just a thought.

Opening and closing isn't an issue. But once the lifting and lowering action is executed there will be slack on the lines once its open and lifting at the same time thus causing the gate to tilt up and the bottom end to be pulled up causing the the vehicle to roll off backwards.

Two hacked servos working in unison would be the way to go for lifting horizontally allowing the vehicle to drive onto the deck. Then once the gate is at the second deck, servo #2 would be able drop the bottom end then servo #1 can pull the gate up to the closed position.

Thank you, Frizzen your input is really helping me to come up with a solution and give me fresh ideas.
