01Universal aluminum gate frameThe pre-engineered 6′ × 6′ frame includes the wide lock side, top and bottom frame components needed to create the single-swing gate structure.
02Wide lock side frameThe side frame is designed around common U.S.-size lock hardware so latch and handle planning can be integrated into the gate.
03Gate T-stopperA coordinated T-stopper is included as part of the gate package for the finished closing condition.
04Receiver L-stopper side postThe receiver-side L-stopper component helps complete the wall-to-wall closing side of the pedestrian gate system.
055″ HD support hingeOne heavy-duty 5-inch support hinge is listed with the package. Self-closing applications require the appropriate spring or hydraulic hardware selection.
0616 black ALU20 slatsSixteen 2″ × 3/4″ × 6′ ALU20 aluminum slats create the horizontal infill with either 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch spacing.
Front pedestrian entriesCreate a substantial modern entrance with six-foot height and a horizontal aluminum rhythm.
Side-yard gatesUse the wider six-foot format where equipment, bikes, bins or larger pedestrian access needs additional clearance.
Courtyards and garden accessCoordinate the black gate with contemporary landscape walls, fencing and exterior architecture.
Multi-unit propertiesUse a low-maintenance aluminum pedestrian gate where clean appearance and regular access are priorities.
Light-commercial entriesA practical option for offices, storefront side access and other pedestrian-only openings with suitable mounting conditions.
Coastal and humid climatesAluminum avoids iron-oxide rust and is well suited to environments where steel maintenance can become a recurring issue.
01Verify the openingMeasure the opening at the top, middle and bottom and confirm wall-to-wall mounting surfaces are plumb, solid and suitable for the selected hardware.
02Assemble the frameLay out the universal frame components on a protected flat surface and assemble the structure while checking diagonals for square.
03Install ALU20 slatsPlace the horizontal slats consistently using the selected 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch spacing and secure them according to the gate system hardware.
04Set hinge hardwarePosition the heavy-duty hinge system for the required swing direction and verify that the mounting side can carry the assembled gate.
05Set the receiver sideInstall and align the receiver-side components, latch or lock hardware, T-stopper and L-stopper for clean closure.
06Align and testCheck clearances, fasteners, latch engagement and smooth swing through the full arc before putting the gate into regular service.
01Measure wall to wallConfirm the finished opening at multiple heights and account for hinge, latch and receiver-side clearances.
02Select the gapChoose 3/8-inch for a tighter visual rhythm or 1/2-inch for slightly more openness and airflow.
03Confirm swing directionPlan whether the gate swings in or out based on available clearance, traffic flow and local requirements.
04Plan lock hardwareConfirm the latch or lock body, handle clearance and backset before final assembly of the wide side frame.
05Check self-closing needsIf self-closing operation is required, select the compatible spring or hydraulic closer rather than assuming the standard hinge alone provides that function.
06Confirm mounting conditionThe standard configuration is wall-to-wall. Concrete-footing projects require the HD post upgrade and should be specified before ordering.
