(Box) ALU 60 T&G 6×6 ft. DIY Pedestrian Gate Kit – Single Swing – No Gap

Full-width privacy in a 6×6 aluminum privacy gate kit

A 6 ft opening leaves plenty of room to move equipment through, but it also leaves a large view into your yard when the gate is gapped. This 6×6 aluminum privacy gate kit closes that view with ALU 60 tongue-and-groove slats that interlock edge to edge. It comes boxed with the 6′ x 6′ DIY frame kit, 11 slats cut to 62in. and the 7/8 plugs, ready for a single-swing pedestrian gate. Compare it with every other heavy-duty pedestrian privacy aluminum gate in our pedestrian gate range.

All parts are 6063-T6 aluminum with AAMA 2604 super-durable powder coating, so the gate keeps its color and shape without the sealing and repainting a wood privacy gate needs. See every maintenance-free customized-height privacy aluminum gate option, from pedestrian to sliding, in our aluminum gates range.

Box contents

The 6′ x 6′ frame kit is listed with a vertical gate frame, vertical gate frame cap, top and bottom horizontal gate frame, 2 heavy-duty hinges and a gate stopper, and is compatible with the Universal Slat Adapter.

Why choose tongue and groove for a wide gate

Each 6-inch ALU 60 T&G slat locks into the one below, so 11 slats fill the frame with no visible seams to see through. On a wide gate that makes a noticeable difference: the surface reads as one calm plane that matches T&G horizontal fencing. Typical uses include:

• Side-yard gates that hide bins, AC units or pool equipment
• Courtyard and patio entrances where privacy matters
• Replacing a worn wood privacy gate with a low-maintenance one

Because the slats arrive pre-cut to 62in. for the 6′ x 6′ frame, you skip measuring and cutting long profiles on site. The 0.047 wall slats and the 7/8 plugs come in the same finish as the frame, so the gate looks uniform once assembled. Compared with a wood privacy gate of the same size, there is no sealing schedule to keep, and the boards will not cup or split as seasons change.

Fencing the rest of the run? The aluminum fence range includes ALU 60 T&G fence kits in the same profile.

Choosing posts

Posts are sold separately. The five options listed for this kit are:

• Hinge Post + L-Side Post – wall-to-wall installation
• 3.15 Post – wall and concrete footing
• 2-way post – wall mount only
• 3in HD Post – concrete footing
• 4in HD Post – standalone post

A solid 6 ft gate is the most demanding case in this family, because a closed face takes more wind load than a gapped one. For wall-to-wall openings, use the 2x2in Hinge Post & L-Side Post Kit. For in-ground installs, compare the 3in HD post for concrete footing with the 4×4 in. HD square post for a standalone post, and confirm the right choice with our team if your site is exposed.

Colors and availability

This kit is available in Black, Bronze and White. For a warmer look, see the Alu 60 T&G wood-look 6×6 gate kit.

Before installation

Measure the finished opening and allow for your posts, check local code for gate requirements, and follow the included instructions during assembly. Leave room for the gate to swing: a 6 ft leaf sweeps a wide arc, so clear any steps, planters or slopes from its path. Latch hardware is not in the box, so choose it at the same time as your posts.

If your opening does not match the 6 ft x 6 ft kit size, or you are weighing one wide gate against two smaller ones, send your measurements to our team.
