Dc moto use gear to lock the gate been open. If u use abit strenght to pull the gate, it will crack the gear. For arm type, it use screw type concerpt to lcok the gate. Can u imaging how r u going to pull out bolt and nut. If u use strenght to pull the gate, normally motor wont spoil but the wall plug will been pull out or the welding point broken.

The center lock is called solenoid.

For conceal autogate is much easier to pull the gate hence they install the solenoid. I spoke to an autogate installer and he told me the arm are using screw type gear to open / close the gate hence it need more force to open up the gate.

The solenoid for the conceal autogate do have its disadvantage, Very easy to open too, just take metal bar lift the gate a bit, the solenoid will be unlock.

Want better safety, install EM lock on the gate. Sure can't open
