    Automatic gate is one of the most preferable domestic intended to provide easy access to gated home. There are three types of automatic gate mechanism, such as sliding, screw drive piston and swing cubic underground. Designs available today are limited only to the three types mentioned. Products available in the market are quite expensive. Most of the products available in our country are imported from foreign country. The objectives of this project is to study, analyze, and develop a circuit that concern with the cost reduction and the mechanism produce should be safe and reliable as well by using a microcontroller. For this project, Arduino microcontroller was used to develop a proper automatic gate mechanism. Analysis by a simulation are also helps in order to select proper electronic component specification or sizes for the product development. Therefore, the durability assessment results are significant to reduced the cost and improve the product reliability so as to gain customer confidence. In order to improve the designed circuit, the output simulation must be obtain to make the gate mechanism function properly
