Screenlet
A screenlet comprising a frame; a flexible flap secured on one edge thereof to the frame; and an arrangement for securing the frame over an aperture in a screen or window. In a specific embodiment, the flap is made of a flexible material (e.g. rubber) designed to cover the aperture when the screenlet is in use. The aperture allows for a power cord or hose to be passed through the screen when the screenlet is in an open position and for the screen to be secured against insects and other pests when the screenlet is in use or closed. Several arrangements are disclosed for securing the flap to the frame including fastener, hook and loop, magnetic and adhesive embodiments.
Safety gate apparatus and method
A safety gate apparatus is provided which couples as a cost efficient and reliable gate for preventing falls and injury as well as a gate that can easily be opened by existing equipment such as a fork lift. The invention comprises a vertical sliding gate configured to move in a path of motion having at least a closed position and an open position. The vertical sliding gate remains in a closed, default position by an applied counter force created by one more elastic means. The sliding gate slides down to an open position by a downward force created by a fork lift or other machinery. The gate will automatically return to the default position when the downward force is removed.

WILDLIFE ACCESS FENCE AND GATE DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS
A wildlife access fence or gate may include at least one pass-through section having a guard attached thereto. The pass-through section may be a jump-through section and a jump guard attached thereto that defines a jump height and jump span that selectively allows wildlife to leap over and/or through the fence while preventing cattle from crossing the fence. The fence or gate may include a crawl-through section and a crawl guard that selectively allows wildlife to crawl under and/or through the fence while preventing cattle from crossing the fence.
