ALU 40 black slat pedestrian gate project
Aluglobus Universal DIY Gate System
The ALU40 profile uses wider 4-inch horizontal aluminum slats for a stronger, more substantial appearance with fewer visual lines across the gate. Choose between a 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch gap to control the balance between airflow, privacy, and architectural appearance.
Why ALU40: the wider 4-inch slat profile creates a cleaner architectural look with fewer horizontal lines than narrower slat systems while maintaining the durability and low-maintenance benefits of aluminum.
The ALU40 Universal DIY system
Explore the Universal DIY frame concept, ALU40 slat compatibility, powder-coated finish, hinge support and aluminum construction used for this 4×6 gate.
Built for DIY
The Universal DIY system is designed around straightforward assembly, a fully engineered aluminum frame and exterior-grade components that can be coordinated with common U.S.-size gate lock hardware.
The frame is designed to assemble cleanly without field welding or fabrication.
The Universal DIY platform supports ALU40 gate layouts and common lock setups while maintaining a consistent architectural look.
6063-T6 aluminum and AAMA 2604 architectural powder coating create a rust-free, weather-ready material platform.
Product specifications
This SKU is a black, single-swing pedestrian gate measuring 4 feet high by 6 feet wide with selectable 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch horizontal slat gaps.
Important installation note: The standard Universal DIY configuration is designed for wall-to-wall installation. A concrete-footing application requires an HD post upgrade and should be specified before ordering.
Wall-to-wall application: this Universal DIY frame is intended for installation between appropriate structural mounting surfaces. Verify the finished opening, hinge orientation, mounting structure, lock hardware, slat spacing, clearances, and site conditions before assembly.
What’s included
This 4×6 configuration includes the core gate frame, hinge and slat components below. Posts and certain access hardware depend on the installation and can be selected separately.
Complete pre-engineered aluminum gate frame sized for the 4-foot-high by 6-foot-wide single-swing configuration.
The wide side profile is designed to coordinate with most U.S.-size lock hardware selected for the project.
Coordinated top and bottom frame components complete the fully DIY frame design.
The gate-side stopper component is included as part of the Universal DIY frame system.
The receiver-side L-stopper component helps finish the closing side of the gate opening.
One heavy-duty support hinge is listed with the kit. A hydraulic spring is sold separately when a true self-closing function is required.
Eight 4-inch × 6-foot ALU40 aluminum slats are included for the 4×6 configuration in super-durable powder-coated black.
The kit is designed around no-weld assembly, with the frame and components prepared for an intermediate DIY or contractor installation.
Not included: concrete footing, lock hardware, hydraulic self-closing spring and installation tools are not included in the standard kit.
Why ALU40 Universal DIY
Pre-engineered components eliminate the need to weld the gate frame in the field.
Four-inch aluminum slats create the clean horizontal rhythm associated with modern residential and light-commercial architecture.
Choose the specified 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch gap to balance visual screening, airflow and the desired architectural expression.
6063-T6 aluminum avoids the iron-oxide rust cycle associated with ferrous gate materials.
AAMA 2604 architectural powder coating is used for long-term exterior color and finish performance.
Aluglobus Aluminum Systems supplies the gate system directly and can help contractors or serious DIY customers confirm the correct project package.

Recommended applications
A clean single-swing access gate for side yards, courtyards and residential pedestrian openings.
ALU40 horizontal slats can coordinate the gate visually with modern aluminum fence systems.
The 6-foot-wide opening gives a broad pedestrian entry while the 4-foot height keeps the gate visually open.
Aluminum and architectural powder coating are well suited to humid and salt-air environments with appropriate routine cleaning.
The gate can serve controlled pedestrian openings where a clean, low-maintenance aluminum system is preferred.
The no-weld system can simplify projects where a contractor handles site anchoring and alignment while using factory-prepared gate components.
Material and finish
The ALU40 gate uses 6063-T6 aluminum with an architectural powder-coated finish. Aluminum does not develop iron-oxide rust, and the black finish is already applied before installation, so no field painting is required.
Strong, lightweight and corrosion-resistant for exterior gate applications.
Architectural powder-coating standard listed for this product.
The gate arrives powder coated, with custom colors available upon request.
The aluminum substrate is non-combustible. Project-specific code compliance depends on the complete installed assembly and local requirements.
Installation sequence
Organize all materials in a clean workspace to avoid damage or misplacement.
Connect the universal gate frame with stainless-steel screws, keeping all corners square and secure.
Cut and insert the ALU40 slats into the frame grooves, establish the selected spacing and secure each slat with the provided stainless-steel screws.
Attach the heavy-duty hinge hardware to the side post and frame, then verify alignment for smooth swing operation.
Attach the side posts and gap-cover components to finish the wall-to-wall opening cleanly.
Press flat caps onto the posts, inspect the connections, confirm clearances and clean the aluminum surfaces.
Measure the finished opening and confirm that this 4-foot-high by 6-foot-wide configuration matches the intended site.
The standard Universal DIY configuration is wall-to-wall only. Concrete footing requires an HD post upgrade requested in advance.
Select the slat spacing that gives the desired balance of privacy and openness before final assembly.
Lock hardware is not included. Confirm the selected latch or lock body and clearances for the wide lock-side frame.
The included support hinge is self-closing capable, but a true self-closing setup requires the separate hydraulic spring specified for the project.
Confirm the gate has unobstructed room to swing and that the mounting surfaces are aligned, rigid and suitable for the selected anchors.

Confirm the wall-to-wall opening, gap option, swing direction, mounting condition and lock requirements before ordering. For concrete-footing conditions or nonstandard projects, contact Aluglobus Aluminum Systems for the correct post and gate configuration.
Frequently asked questions
Review common questions about DIY assembly, gate sizing, finish, kit contents, mounting conditions and exterior use.
Yes. The kit is designed for DIY users. Components are pre-sized and engineered for straightforward assembly with no welding required.
The gate frame comes pre-sized for the 4×6 configuration, so the frame itself does not require cutting. Follow the supplied slat and assembly instructions for the infill.
One person can assemble the frame, but an extra helper is useful during leveling and mounting so the gate can be positioned more quickly and precisely.
No. The black finish is already powder coated for durability, corrosion resistance and long-term color performance.
This 4×6 configuration includes the Universal DIY frame, wide lock side, top and bottom frame, T-stopper, receiver L-stopper side post, one 5-inch HD support hinge and eight 4-inch × 6-foot ALU40 slats.
The standard specification is wall-to-wall only. The product page states that a concrete-footing installation requires an HD post upgrade that must be requested.
No. Lock hardware and the hydraulic self-closing spring are listed as not included. Select those parts based on the access-control and self-closing requirements of the project.
Yes. The product is specifically listed for coastal, humid and harsh climates. Routine cleaning is still recommended where salt or environmental deposits accumulate.
