A gate arrangement to a fenced area for at least one animal includes a gate movably arranged between a closed position and open position in an opening to the fenced area, and a lock mechanism that locks the gate when the gate is in the closed position. The lock mechanism locks the gate in the closed position with an adjustable specific locking force such that the gate is opened by applying a larger force than the specific force on the gate, and the gate arrangement includes a force adjusting unit that sets the lock mechanism in an unlocked state and in at least two different locked states, in which the gate is locked by two different specific locking forces.
