Nuh-uh.  The easiest way to get through the gate is to go into a fighting
stance and WALK up to it, then high kick.  If the gate doesn't come down,
take ONE STEP closer and high kick again.  Repeat until the gate slams shut.
Then stand up and wait until the bottom of the gate is level with your head
and run through.  Perfectly safe, if you're patient.
