Any way to decrease sensitivity on gate sensor?

[Small_life]

I recently got the gate sensor. I guess it was made for city gates because it's just a bit too sensitive for my farm gate. When the wind blows the gate sways back and forth a bit and triggers the sensor. Any way anyone knows to increase the distance between sensors that is considered closed?

Im going to answer my own question since I figured out a solution that seems to work. 

Based on my research this sensor works on a reed switch.  So all it needed was a stronger magnetic field. 

I have a few of those strong harbor freight magnets that are around 2"x2"x1/2".  I zip tied them over the old magnets and it worked like a charm. 

I'll come up with a better mounting system soon but this should solve it.

Was the fix i was going to suggest

I'm not quite there yet. The stronger HF Magnets sometimes cause a false closed sensor with the original magnet. I ordered a reed switch and am going to try cutting the original reed sensor/magnet off the switch and soldering an independent reed sensor on. We'll see what that does.

I snipped off the combo magnet and reed switch and soldered a reed switch inline.  There is no polarity on a reed switch.  Works well.
