Wow SOLUTIONS. I expect like most things someone or something makes money repairing the gates, Our gate, perhaps, a newer version, simply snaps back into the actuator. You can bet whoever gets PAID for this does not mention how simple it is.
They, it is fairly regulatory knocked down, have someone put up a stop sign then send out a truck to snap it back in.

In the end no matter what people will complain rather than having solutions to offer.
