Description
The ALU40 6×6 2-Way Post Fence Kit combines sixteen 4-inch horizontal aluminum slats, consistent 1/2-inch spacing, a 2.75-inch 2-way line post, caps, brackets, bottom spacers and assembly fasteners in one coordinated matte-black system. It is designed for homeowners, contractors and builders who want modern semi-privacy without the maintenance cycle of wood. The ALU40 system is organized around slat alignment, repeatable spacing, line-post continuity, exterior finish and an installer-friendly assembly sequence. Thirty cover-post spacers help repeat the same semi-privacy gap across the panel instead of relying on visual guesswork. ALU40 uses wider horizontal extrusions for a stronger architectural rhythm and fewer visual interruptions across the 6 ft panel. The black aluminum system is designed for UV, moisture and corrosion exposure with a low-maintenance architectural finish. Slats, spacers, post, cap set, bottom spacers, L-brackets and standard assembly fasteners are organized around one 6×6 section. Aluminum does not ignite like wood or vinyl, making it a strong material direction for modern exterior and wildfire-conscious projects. The gallery highlights the actual fence system: the horizontal slat profile, spacing, finish, support details and installation context. The 4-inch ALU40 slats create a visually substantial screen, while the 1/2-inch gap keeps the fence from reading like a completely solid wall. The result is a modern semi-privacy system with airflow and filtered visibility. The quantities below match the product configuration so contractors and DIY installers can plan the section before concrete, cutting or assembly begins. 4″ × 6 ft extruded aluminum slats · 6063-T6 architectural-grade aluminum · matte-black powder coat. 2-way cover-post spacers used to maintain consistent horizontal gaps. Matte-black line post for straight runs. Standard length is 8 ft, with carrier-specific shipping variation where applicable. 2.75″ press cap plus matching cap or trim component for the post assembly. Bottom spacers sized for the 2.75″ post configuration. Brackets used as part of the standard fence assembly. Fence assembly screws and fasteners for the kit components. ALU40 combines architectural-grade aluminum slats, an exterior powder-coated finish, a true 6×6 panel format and a 2-way line-post configuration. The installation values below should be coordinated with the actual soil, wind exposure, fence layout and local requirements. The ALU40 slats use architectural-grade 6063-T6 aluminum with super-durable exterior powder coating. The material resists iron-oxide rust and does not require staining or sealing, while the non-combustible aluminum substrate does not ignite like combustible fence materials. The 2-way post makes this configuration especially useful for repeating straight runs. Corners, ends, gates and unusual grade conditions may require different posts or project-specific details. The 4-inch slats and 1/2-inch gaps create a strong semi-private boundary with a modern horizontal appearance. Use the consistent horizontal rhythm to define patios, courtyards and controlled outdoor spaces. The aluminum system can be used around pool areas when the complete barrier height, openings, gates and hardware meet local pool requirements. Aluminum avoids iron-oxide rust and is well suited to projects where moisture resistance is important. A clean architectural option for offices, multifamily common areas and other low-rise perimeter applications. Aluminum can support non-combustible exterior-material strategies, subject to the complete project design and local requirements. These additional visuals show the system in broader fence and fabrication context so the installer can evaluate proportion, finish and assembly before ordering. The system is DIY-friendly for installers with intermediate skills, but a clean horizontal fence depends on accurate layout. Set the 2-way post correctly first, then use the spacer system to build the panel with consistent gaps. Mark the fence line and identify where 2-way line posts, corners, ends and gates occur. Size the footing for soil, frost, wind exposure, fence height and local requirements rather than copying one depth to every property. Check both directions and establish the correct finished elevation before the concrete cures. Use the bottom spacers and a level reference so the first slat begins consistently across the run. Alternate the 4-inch slats with the supplied 1/2-inch spacing system while checking level and alignment. Secure the assembly with the included L-brackets and standard fence fasteners. Install the press-cap set after the fence is aligned and final post work is complete. Confirm the top line, gap consistency, post plumb and all connections before the section is placed into service. The fence media includes the ALU40 product video below, plus the requested Aluglobus YouTube video for additional system context. Review the system format, black finish and assembly context before installation. Watch additional product and fabrication context from Aluglobus Aluminum Systems. Both systems can create modern horizontal aluminum fencing. ALU40 uses a broader 4-inch slat profile, giving the 6×6 panel a bolder visual rhythm with fewer horizontal lines. The most important planning points are the straight-run post configuration, exact kit quantities, footing conditions and the distinction between supplied panel size and finished site installation. Choose the ALU40 6×6 2-Way Post Kit for a coordinated black horizontal fence section, or send Aluglobus the layout when you need help planning post types, section quantities, gates, corners or project-specific mounting.A complete horizontal ALU40 fence kit built for clean straight runs.

What is included in the ALU40 fence kit?
The kit includes sixteen 4-inch × 6 ft ALU40 aluminum slats, thirty 1/2-inch spacers, one 2.75-inch 2-way aluminum post, one press-cap set, two bottom spacers, two L-brackets and standard fence assembly fasteners.What is a 2-way post used for?
A 2-way post is designed for straight fence runs, allowing fence sections to continue on opposite sides of the post. Corners, ends and gate conditions may require different post or connection details.How much privacy does the 1/2-inch gap provide?
The 4-inch slats with 1/2-inch openings create semi-privacy. They block most direct sight lines while still allowing airflow and filtered light through the fence.Is this fence suitable for DIY installation?
Yes. The system is organized for straightforward assembly, but intermediate DIY skills, accurate layout, standard tools and proper concrete or structural mounting are recommended.Does this fence require maintenance?
Maintenance is low. Periodically rinse or clean the powder-coated aluminum with mild soap and water, and inspect fasteners, post alignment and any site-specific connections.Can this fence withstand coastal or humid conditions?
Aluminum does not develop iron-oxide rust, and the exterior powder coating is designed for moisture and UV exposure. Routine cleaning is still important where salt or environmental residue accumulates.Is the aluminum fence non-combustible?
Yes. The aluminum material is non-combustible and does not ignite like wood or vinyl. Project fire compliance depends on the complete assembly, location and applicable code requirements.How long is the included 2-way post?
The standard post is listed at 8 ft. Some carrier shipments may use a 6 ft post with a steel sleeve where that shipping configuration applies, so confirm the delivered post arrangement before installation.What footing size should I use?
Approximately 10–12 inches in diameter by 24–36 inches deep is a planning starting range, but footing size is not universal. Verify soil, frost line, wind exposure, fence height and local structural requirements.Can this kit be used around a pool?
It can be part of a pool-area fence layout, but the complete barrier must meet local requirements for height, openings, climbability, gates, latches and other safety provisions.Build the straight run around a repeatable 4-inch slat and 1/2-inch gap.
