Design & Durability: Materials, Finishes, Customization
The DIY PAD GATE ALU50 Woodgrain Universal DIY 4×6 Gate Kit is part of our ALU50 series — known for clean design, reinforced strength, and modular flexibility. Each gate is built with 6063-T6 architectural aluminum, powder-coated to AAMA 2604 specifications, ensuring long-term resistance to corrosion, salt air, and UV fading.
The woodgrain finish is achieved through a sublimation process that embeds authentic wood patterns directly into the aluminum surface. Options often include popular tones such as IPE, Teak, Walnut, White Oak, and Dark Ash — giving customers the ability to match their fence or home style perfectly.
This gate’s construction features:
Hidden internal corner bracing for added rigidity.
Smooth-swing adjustable hinges and a latch system ready for padlock or key-lock installation.
Clean weld-free assembly for a polished architectural appearance.
Customization options are available upon request, including alternative dimensions, double-door configurations, or custom powder-coat colors. Contractors can also order in bulk for consistent job-site supply and branding alignment.
Durability is non-negotiable — aluminum won’t rot, rust, or warp. The powder-coat protects from UV rays, while the internal structure remains solid even under constant use. It’s a gate built to outlast any traditional wood or steel equivalent.

FAQs
What makes the ALU50 Woodgrain Gate better than a real wood gate?
Unlike wood, aluminum won’t rot, swell, or fade. The woodgrain finish recreates the natural look while eliminating maintenance — no staining, no termites, no splitting boards.
Can I install the gate myself?
Yes! It’s specifically designed for DIY installation. Everything is pre-cut and pre-drilled, requiring only standard tools like a drill, level, and wrench.
Is the gate weatherproof?
Absolutely. The aluminum is powder-coated to withstand rain, UV rays, and coastal air. The woodgrain finish is baked into the surface, so it won’t peel or bubble under the sun.
Does the kit include posts and hinges?
The gate kit includes hinges and latch hardware. Posts are sold separately so you can match your specific fence layout.
Can I order custom sizes or double gates?
Yes. Custom dimensions and dual-swing configurations are available for larger openings or driveways. Contact our team to get a quote for your project.
