Thumbs up gate for chain link fence

Hi

My first time here.

I would like to install a gate in my backyard chain link fence so I can park in the back. This would give my wife safer, quicker access to the house.

But I don't know where to start, other than just start cutting the fence. I would like to have a gate wide enough to drive through and one that could open with a control like a garage door. My local "box stores" don't really carry gates like this and thy referred me to contractors. But I would rathrer DIY and save a little.

Thanks - David
