Benefits: Why Homeowners and Contractors Choose It

The DIY Double Swing ALU50 T&G Universal 12×6 Gate Kit – Woodgrain isn’t just about looks—it’s engineered to save time, cost, and future maintenance. Every detail is optimized for performance, aesthetics, and longevity.

  • Architectural-grade aluminum: The ALU50 profile is part of our heavy-duty extrusion series, designed to stay straight and rigid even in wide double-swing formats.

  • Realistic woodgrain finish: Powder-coated to AAMA 2604 standards for long-term color stability, UV resistance, and outdoor performance.

  • DIY-friendly assembly: Pre-cut, pre-drilled, and designed for quick installation using basic tools.

  • Rust-proof and weather-resistant: No rotting, cracking, or peeling like wood or iron. Perfect for coastal climates or high-sun environments.

  • Universal compatibility: Works with most post systems, hinge hardware, and automation kits for swing gates.

For homeowners, it means a luxury-looking entrance without ongoing repairs or refinishing. For contractors, it means faster installation, fewer callbacks, and a gate system that customers can trust for years.

This DIY aluminum double swing gate kit also offers major curb appeal. The warm woodgrain tone pairs beautifully with modern architecture—complementing composite fencing, stucco walls, or aluminum frame driveways. It’s proof that strength and style can coexist effortlessly.

Applications: Where and How It’s Used

Versatile, durable, and visually striking, the DIY Double Swing ALU50 T&G Universal 12×6 Gate Kit – Woodgrain fits perfectly across residential, commercial, and multi-unit settings.

  • Driveway entry gates: Its 12-foot span makes it ideal for vehicle access while maintaining a refined appearance.

  • Garden and yard gates: Adds luxury to backyard enclosures or side-yard entries.

  • HOA and residential developments: Popular for communities seeking a modern, cohesive look with low maintenance costs.

  • Contractor projects: Perfect for builders and landscapers needing a standardized, high-end gate that installs efficiently and enhances property value.

This model’s double-swing design allows full clearance when opening, ideal for spaces that need wide access without compromising style. When closed, the tongue-and-groove boards create a clean, private façade that resembles fine carpentry—yet it’s made entirely of durable aluminum.

Design & Durability: Materials, Finishes, and Customization

Every DIY Double Swing ALU50 T&G Universal 12×6 Gate Kit – Woodgrain is crafted from 6063-T6 architectural aluminum, the same alloy used in high-rise façades and luxury outdoor systems. The internal T&G (tongue-and-groove) panels interlock tightly, forming a solid surface that resists flexing and provides consistent alignment.

The woodgrain finish is achieved through advanced powder-coat sublimation technology that embeds natural wood patterns—like Teak, Ipe, Red Oak, or Walnut—directly into the coating. The result: the visual warmth of wood with the structural integrity of aluminum.

Each kit is designed with universal compatibility in mind. The frame can integrate with:

  • 3″ or 4″ aluminum posts

  • Standard hinge and latch systems

  • Optional motorized gate openers or smart-home automation

This makes it easy to adapt the gate for both manual and automated setups. The powder-coated surface meets AAMA 2604 outdoor performance standards, meaning it withstands years of UV exposure, rain, and salt air without fading or chalking.

When it comes to durability, few materials compare—aluminum never rusts, doesn’t expand or contract like wood, and holds up in any climate from coastal California to humid Florida. It’s a lifetime gate solution that keeps its beauty and function intact.
