How is she Ark of the Covenant or Gate of Heaven?

Mary is Ark of the Covenant because Jesus is the New Covenant. She carried the New Covenant in her womb for nine months.

She is Gate of Heaven because, by her consent to give birth to the Son of God, she helped open heaven up to all of us. Of course, Jesus functioned as the key to open the gates, but Mary, by her giving birth to Him, put the key in the lock and turned it.
