Abstract: An automated gate for robotic mowers may include at least two doors that are sized to receive a robotic mower, and it can be installed in any fence to enable the mower to move between the yards on its own. The at least two doors of an automated gate may provide optional capability to lock when not used by the mower and unlock automatically when the mower gets close. By default, the at least two doors may remain unlocked, yet closed, thereby providing a cost-effective solution for customers who do not have to worry about pets. An add-on module may be provided that may add a locking mechanism and triggering mechanism, thereby providing end users with the ability to lock the automated gate completely.
