Abstract

See full text

A bidirectional, spring-biased gate assembly includes a pair of side frames, an elongated hinge extending therebetween, and a gate extending vertically from the hinge. In a resting position, the gate extends vertically across an open interior between the pair of side frames, providing a movable barrier suitable for deterring and/or blocking animals from passing therethrough. The gate is able to transition between the resting position, a first lowered position perpendicular to the resting position, and a second lowered position perpendicular to the resting position in the opposite direction of the first lowered position. The gate assembly further comprises a plurality of springs extending between one of the side frames and the gate and are adapted to return the gate to the resting position from either the first lowered position or the second lowered position.
