I made my own using a few pulleys, small cable and a two outlet garden waterer timer. At night a plastic gallon jug slowly fills and pulls the gate closed to be latched by a garden gate latch. The water slowly drains out of the plastic jug through a tiny hole in the bottom. In the morning another jug fills and releases the gate latch and the gate is pulled open by a screen door spring. This jug then slowly drains and it's ready for the next cycle. I had to throttle down the water to just a trickle filling the jugs because the shortest time the timer can be set is one minute. It works like a charm and I have the cost of the timer (about $35) and a few hours of spare time invested. I hope this helps. TDF
