Alu 60 T&G - 8ft x 6ft H 2way post Fence Kit - GAP 1/2"

A tongue and groove aluminum fence kit for full privacy

This tongue and groove aluminum fence kit 8×6 builds one 8 ft wide by 6 ft high section of Alu 60 T&G privacy fence. The 6-inch slats interlock edge to edge, so the finished panel reads as a solid, seamless wall of aluminum rather than a set of separate boards. It is the kit to choose when screening a patio, pool area or neighboring window matters more than airflow.

Everything for the section comes as three boxed items: the slats, a 2.75 2-way post kit, and a matching 8 ft top rail. Pick Black, Bronze or White and every component arrives in the same AAMA 2604 super-durable powder coating.

What’s in the box

Inside the 2-way post kit:

• 1 pc – 2-way post
• 1 pc – 2-way post press cap
• 14 pcs – L-brackets for securing slats and rails
• 4 pcs – 1″ or 2″ bottom spacers with screw bush
• 8 pcs – #12 x 2″ black self-tapping screws for the bottom spacers

The post kit is listed as made in USA. No separate spacer pack appears in this kit’s inclusions; if a specific gap between slats matters for your design, confirm it with our team before ordering.

How the Alu 60 T&G slat performs

Alu 60 T&G is a 6-inch aluminum slat with a 0.047″ wall and a tongue-and-groove edge. Because each slat locks into the next, the stack stays aligned along the full 8 ft length and there are no sight lines between boards. The profile is extruded from 6063-T6 aluminum, so it will not rot, warp or need sealing, and the powder-coated surface only needs occasional washing.

• Privacy: interlocking edges close the view completely.
• Finished top: the included 0.059″ top rail caps the stack for a clean edge.
• Consistency: every section uses the same slat count and components, so long runs stay uniform.

Choose a color to suit the house: Black gives a crisp, contemporary outline, Bronze warms up brick and natural stone, and White keeps a bright, clean look against light siding.

Planning posts, ends and mounting

One kit equals one 8 ft section with one post. A run of sections needs one additional post to close the line, and each end, corner or gate opening needs its own post. For terminating a run, the 2.75 2-way End Post Kit adds a cover strip for the blank side of the post.

• Measure the run and split it into 8 ft sections.
• Count ends, corners and gates to get your extra post total.
• Choose in-ground posts or surface mounting with the 2.75 2-way post baseplate, following the included instructions and local code.
• Solid privacy panels catch more wind than open slat designs; share exposure details with our team if your site is open or elevated.

Matching gates and spare parts

For an entry in the same style, the Alu 60 T&G 4×6 DIY pedestrian gate kit uses the same tongue-and-groove slat, so fence and gate line up visually. Loose Alu 60 T&G slats and 8 ft top rails are also available if you need a spare for a repair or a short section, and the aluminum fence category lists posts and accessories in matching finishes.

A practical choice for homeowners and installers

Ordering a tongue and groove aluminum fence kit 8×6 per section cuts down on ordering mistakes: you count sections, add end posts, and every panel arrives with the same parts. Homeowners get a predictable DIY project, and installers get repeatable components that stage easily on site. If you are unsure whether this or the more open Alu 40 slat kit suits your yard, our team can talk through privacy, light and wind before you order.
