Will it work with my existing remotes?

Often. Where the frequency matches, what you already carry gets re-programmed rather than replaced.

The operator type decides most of that. Hydraulic, screw-drive and rack-and-pinion units do not sound alike, which is worth knowing before one is fitted.

There is no room for a gate to swing.

Then it should not swing. A slide or a cantilever gets the same opening without needing an arc that is not there.

Will it overhang the sidewalk?

It should not, and that is a design constraint rather than a preference — whatever the gate does happens inside the property line.

Tamarac · Broward County

Most households end up wanting three ways in: a remote in the car, a code for the people who visit often, and a phone that works from anywhere. All three run off the same operator, and which one you reach for is a habit you settle in the first week.

A short frontage usually means a slide operator rather than a pair of arms, and the safety loop has to be cut into a driveway that was already short to begin with.

On a short frontage the gate, the operator and the access hardware are all competing for the same few feet.

Also inside the HVHZ

Broward falls inside the same High-Velocity Hurricane Zone as Miami-Dade, so the wind rating carries across the county line unchanged. What does not carry across is the paperwork: permitting is administered locally, and the sensible order is to ask what Tamarac expects before the steel is ordered rather than after.
