ALU20 system at a glance
The 1/2-inch spacing is the visual signature of this kit. It creates partial privacy while preserving airflow and filtered light, giving the fence a lighter architectural presence than a fully closed panel.
1/2″ gap design: provides partial visibility and airflow while maintaining a clean, modern horizontal fence appearance.
Fence-focused system features
01 · Efficient installation
The kit format is designed to simplify layout and assembly for professional installers and experienced DIY users. Confirm the exact selected package, post requirements and hardware before installation.
02 · Semi-privacy geometry
The horizontal spacing balances privacy with airflow and light instead of creating the wind exposure and visual weight of a fully closed fence panel.
03 · Material system
USA-made 6063-T6 aluminum, architectural powder coating and a non-combustible aluminum substrate create a strong low-maintenance exterior material package.
What the 1/2-inch gap changes
The 1/2-inch opening is intentionally visible. It interrupts direct sight lines while still allowing air and daylight through the fence, making it useful when the project wants privacy and separation without a fully closed surface.
The closely spaced horizontal slats reduce visibility through the fence, especially from normal viewing angles, while remaining a semi-privacy system.
Open spacing gives wind a path through the fence instead of presenting the same continuous surface area as a solid panel.
The repeated black horizontal lines visually widen a yard, side passage, patio or property boundary.
Technical specifications
The product specification identifies a 6 ft wide by 6 ft tall horizontal ALU20 fence kit in black with a 1/2-inch gap, 6063-T6 aluminum, architectural powder coating and AAMA 2604 finish details.
Kit planning: the product is sold as a complete fence kit, but the page does not publish a detailed component quantity table. Confirm the exact posts, brackets, fasteners and selected package components before installation.
Use the technical profile drawing to understand the extrusion geometry and how the ALU20 system creates a repeatable horizontal fence surface.
The exploded render gives contractors and DIY users a clearer view of how the aluminum fence components relate before layout and assembly.
Material & fire characteristics
The ALU20 product lists lightweight construction, excellent corrosion resistance, non-combustible aluminum and an architectural powder-coated finish. Those properties are especially useful where the project wants a modern fence without wood rot, insect damage or routine staining.
Zone Zero and code planning: non-combustible aluminum can support wildfire-conscious material selection, but whether a specific fence layout satisfies Zone Zero, pool barrier, setback or other local requirements depends on the complete installation and jurisdiction.
Designed for modern living
Unlike wood fencing that can warp, rot or demand repeated staining, aluminum is designed for long-term exterior service. The ALU20 1/2-inch gap creates a balanced combination of privacy, light and airflow while maintaining straight horizontal lines across the fence run.
Horizontal black slats create a contemporary architectural line that works with minimalist, luxury and modern exterior design.
Aluminum avoids wood rot and insect damage, while powder coating removes the recurring staining cycle associated with wood fencing.
The 1/2-inch gap reduces direct visibility while allowing air and light through the fence.
Aluminum and architectural powder coating are well suited to exterior environments, including humid and coastal conditions when properly installed and maintained.
Applications
The system works as a standalone fence panel or as part of a larger layout, with common uses ranging from backyards and side yards to patios, pool areas and light-commercial perimeter design.
Backyard
Define property lines and outdoor rooms with a modern semi-private horizontal surface.
Side yard
Create clean screening along narrow side passages without the visual weight of a solid wall.
Pool area
The black aluminum look works naturally around modern pools. Confirm all local pool-barrier height, opening and hardware requirements for the complete installation.
Patio
Use the 1/2-inch spacing to define a patio or entertaining area while preserving airflow.
Front yard
Horizontal slats create a clean front elevation that complements contemporary homes and landscape design.
Commercial
Suitable for office, multi-family and other light-commercial environments where the design and local requirements fit the system.
Installation planning
The kit is installer-friendly, but straight horizontal lines make small layout errors visible. Measure the fence run, confirm post and support requirements, plan the 1/2-inch spacing, and verify the complete mounting condition before assembly.
Before digging or fastening: confirm utilities, property lines, setbacks, finished elevations, post spacing, soil or substrate, gate transitions, pool requirements and any local permit or wildfire rules that apply.
Confirm total length, finished height and grade changes before calculating panel and post quantities.
Verify which posts, brackets and fasteners belong with the selected kit and substrate before installation begins.
Mark each support location and verify plumb, level and finished elevation across the complete run.
Organize the slats and connecting components so the 1/2-inch gap remains consistent from panel to panel.
Follow the supplied system instructions and continuously check the horizontal lines before final tightening.
Check alignment, fasteners, finish condition, post stability and all transitions before the project is turned over.

Frequently asked questions
The most important decisions are the 6×6 panel size, semi-privacy gap, support layout, installation method and local project requirements.
The product lists USA-made 6063-T6 aluminum with a black architectural powder-coated finish and AAMA 2604 coating details.
Yes. Common residential applications include backyards, front yards, side yards, patios and pool-area designs when the complete installation meets applicable local requirements.
It is a semi-privacy design. The 1/2-inch spacing reduces direct visibility while still allowing airflow and filtered light through the fence.
Routine care is minimal. Clean the powder-coated aluminum with water and mild soap as needed, especially where salt, dust or environmental residue can build up.
Experienced DIY homeowners can install aluminum fence systems when they are comfortable with layout, posts, concrete or structural mounting, cutting and alignment. Professional installation can be useful for long runs, grade changes, pool barriers and projects with gates.
The product lists an architectural powder-coated finish with AAMA 2604 coating details and describes the black finish as UV-stable. Normal service life still depends on exposure, cleaning and finish care.
Yes, it can be used in suitable light-commercial applications such as office, multi-family and perimeter projects when the structural layout and local requirements fit the system.
Aluminum offers excellent corrosion resistance and does not form iron-oxide rust like steel. Proper coating care, post design, fasteners and installation remain important in coastal, humid, windy and high-exposure environments.
Yes. The product identifies the aluminum material as non-combustible. Whether a complete fence installation satisfies a specific Zone Zero, wildfire, pool or local code requirement depends on the full assembly and jurisdiction.
The product is sold as a complete fence kit, but a detailed component quantity table is not published on the product page. Confirm the selected package, posts, brackets, fasteners and other required components before installation.
