ALU 40 Slat 6 ft. - WG - Yellow Oak

Wood look aluminum fence slats in Yellow Oak

These wood look aluminum fence slats 6 ft long give you the warm tone of oak on an aluminum profile. Each piece is an Alu 40 slat with a Yellow Oak wood-grain finish over 6063-T6 aluminum, so you get the look of timber without the rot, splitting or refinishing cycle that real boards bring.

Specifications

Uses

• 6 ft wide fence sections with a natural look
• Pedestrian gates and sliding gates
• Wall toppers that soften a block or stucco wall
• Pergola infill over a patio
• Screens around bins, AC units or seating areas

The 6 ft length is a direct fit for 6 ft wide sections and gate frames, and short enough to handle and cut easily. For a gate, start with a frame from our aluminum gates range.

Building a full wood-look fence

The price list includes an Alu 40 wood-look 6 ft x 6 ft fence kit with 16 slats, a 2-way post kit and a pack of 32 quarter-inch spacers, with a minimum gap of 1/4″. If you are sourcing parts yourself, add a 2-way post kit and 1/4″ 2-way post spacers. You can also compare the existing Alu40 woodgrain 6×6 fence kit.

Timber look, aluminum upkeep

Wood look aluminum fence slats 6 ft long solve a familiar problem. Wood fences look warm when new but need regular staining or sealing to stay that way, and boards can cup, split or rot over time. A wood-grain aluminum slat keeps the oak tone without that cycle: there is nothing to seal, and routine care is a rinse to remove dust and pollen. Yellow Oak works well against black, bronze or white posts and frames, and it softens hard landscaping such as concrete, block walls and pavers.

Choosing length

Pick 6 ft for standard sections and gates. For wide openings or long wall toppers, the 18 ft Yellow Oak slat reduces joins and lets you cut custom pieces. Order all slats for one project together so the wood-grain tone matches from section to section, and keep a spare or two for future repairs.
