We would prefer that neighbor grand kids, or utility service people not be able to open that gate without us.
My first thought was to get a lock. But, that kind of sucks because if we lock it on the inside, and are trying to get in, we can't reach it, and if we lock it on the outside, and are trying to take the dogs for a walk, we can't reach it.
We frequently go out without our keys and count on being able to get back in through that gate.
Suggestions?

We went through this as well! The solution that worked well for us, albeit we have a corner unit so we don’t share our gate. Installed a mag lock with a exit button on the inside a the outside works on our remotes. Amazon sells the whole kit for $125.
Really easy to install and you could even run on a small solar cell if desired.
