The opinions expressed here are my own.

Colour should not be an issue when it comes to opening or closing a gate. Obviously the colour does matter, especially if it is a vehicle entrance/exit gate. The gate needs to be visible. So does the extent of the width (and the height) of the open entrance.

Colour also matters when you are reading text. Generally there should be sufficient contrast between the colour used for the text, and the colour used for the background. Road signs serve as a good example.

The MyComb app I have just installed on my cell phone serves as an excellent example (my opinion) of exceedingly poor use of foreground and background colours for text. The two images included below attest to that.

You probably cannot read this. No problem!
