In this video I unbox and review the Mighty Mule FM143 automatic gate lock. I have this installed on my 371W Gate and it does a great job at keeping the gate locked and nice and tight even when wind is high. I hope you enjoyed the video, thank you for your time and thank you for watching.

I would not bolt the latch on the post. Here in Florida with expansion and contraction you need that little bit of play when closing. I have not had any problems with its ability to stay locked. I have had a lock a long time on my system. Watched you video mainly to confirm how to wire the lock into the new 371W. Never had to use a jumper before. Thanks Great Video.

[@Kawabunga_Dude]

Followed your directions, worked like a charm. Pretended to know what I was doing the whole time😉. Thank you from someone who knows nothing about wiring!

[@governmentisslavery6910]

Huge shout-out to you, I am installing the Mighty Mule double gate and the wiring that you did in this video was the same for my application. Thank you for sharing.👍🙂👍

[@BourbonandAussies]

I don't think you want to thread and bolt that pin down. As I understand it, that is designed that way to have play so if the gate shifts or weather causes the gate to wobble while closing the pin has room to move around and secure itself in the latch and the gate doesn't bounce off the pin. I'm about to install this, this evening. Good overview and I like the way you attached it. I was contemplating the muffler clamps they recommended.

[@TipsNNTricks]

Great advice thank you, I hope your lock is working great:)

[@BourbonandAussies]

@@TipsNNTricks It is, we are very happy with it!

[@leopold9999]

Most likely true - however all that play causes the gate to rattle around in the wind.
Looking at the Viro Lock V96, has a different design that doesn't use a pin. Isn't cheap thou.

[@tylersmith293]

The pin is supposed to move.

[@michaeldinwiddie5754]

Thanks for the video! You made my install very easy.

[@heronthere]

Thanks. You made it look easy. Will be installing this weekend.

[@znismo1]

Thank you so much for this video. Helped me install mine, specifically your explanation of how to wire it on. People like you make RUclips GREAT!

[@mikeramsey2126]

Thank you!

[@carolguntle6005]

I installed gate lock. Sometimes it works fine but sometimes my gate bounces back of locking pin and stops outward. What needs to be adjusted to fix this problem?

[@Yabishp]

Hey brother mine isn’t closing all the way, it’s tapping the pin and not fully locking. Any thoughts?

[@sudsreserve5474]

Yeah, I would say the limit switch need adjustment

[@underrated9600]

is that the white wire that cane with the gate lock?

[@josejimenezcaceres5277]

Hello friend, I bought the same one, I assembled it today and it is extremely slow, you can barely see it moving, could you help me?

[@callapygian]

that pin needs to float. U bolts would have been far superior to your sloppy flange mount solution. Typical sloppy homeowner install….

[@dogriverbrewing]

Mighty Mule is Garbage! This lock sucks! Fails all the time...

[@moojester5263]

Had mine for years with no failure. The only issue I ever had was due to gate sag. Installed right, should last years.

[@valhallarescue]

What lock would you recommend for a mighty mule opener? Is there a better lock that will work?
