Description
The Aluminum Gate Kit ALU20 SLAT Contractor Line 12′ × 6′ Horizontal Double Swing is a contractor-grade HD PAD Gate system for wide residential, estate and light-commercial openings. It combines a 4-inch heavy-duty USA aluminum gate frame, ALU20 horizontal slats, reinforced channel and corner components, 5-inch two-way support hinges and architectural powder-coated aluminum in a two-leaf swing configuration. Explore the heavy-duty frame, ALU20 horizontal profile, powder-coated finish and gate-system details from multiple views. Open any image for a larger look without leaving the product page. The heavy-duty Contractor Line is organized around a 4-inch HD aluminum gate frame, reinforced corner and channel components, ALU20 infill and two-way hinge support for professional or experienced installation. This model is the Contractor / Heavy-Duty HD PAD Gate configuration with two swing leaves, a 4-inch HD aluminum frame and ALU20 horizontal slats. The product listing identifies the heavy-duty frame, corner reinforcement, channel system, gate stopper, hinge support, screws and ALU20 slat profile used to build the double-swing assembly. The listing specifies 24′ of 4-inch heavy-duty USA aluminum gate-frame material for the Contractor Line assembly. Corner reinforcement helps maintain a square, rigid frame as the two gate leaves are assembled. The channel system supports the horizontal ALU20 infill and creates a controlled, finished relationship between slats and frame. The listed L-shape stopper is part of the closing and alignment hardware for the double-swing system. The heavy-duty hinge system is selected for contractor-grade swing support and proper leaf alignment. The product listing identifies #10 × 1″, #12 × 2″ black and #10 × 3/4″ screws for the gate assembly. The listed infill profile is ALU20 at 2″ × 3/4″ × 6′. Slat spacing should match the ordered configuration and project requirements. Compatible post options shown on the current listing include 2″, 2.75″ and 2″ × 3″. Final selection depends on site, footing and operator conditions. Custom colors and custom gate sizes are available, allowing the Contractor Line system to be specified beyond the standard 12′ × 6′ configuration. The 12-foot overall gate is configured as a double swing, creating two leaves that meet at the center. This format is suited to driveways and broad access points where there is enough clear swing area on the property. The 6-foot height provides substantial coverage, while the 4-inch HD frame is intended to maintain structural stability across frequent use and the narrower ALU20 horizontal profile keeps the design visually refined across the full opening. Use the additional views to inspect the aluminum system, horizontal slat language and exterior finish in more detail. Use the ALU20 profile drawings to understand the slat geometry and how the horizontal infill relates to the Contractor Line frame. Final gate dimensions, post conditions and hardware placement should be confirmed for the actual project. The product is designed as a heavy-duty kit, but the site still determines the correct support condition. Contractors should treat the post and footing selection as part of the gate system rather than an afterthought. This Contractor Line configuration uses a 4-inch heavy-duty gate-frame platform for the 12-foot double-swing opening. Heavy-duty two-way hinge hardware is listed for the gate. Alignment and structural attachment remain critical across both leaves. 2-inch, 2.75-inch and 2 × 3-inch post options are shown on the listing. Selection should match the actual opening, load, exposure and operator plan. Posts must be installed plumb and securely supported. Footing design and embedment depend on project conditions and applicable requirements. The gate can support compatible swing automation, but operator capacity, attachment location, safety devices and site geometry must be confirmed as a complete system. Both leaves must align correctly at the center, with the stopper, latch or access-control hardware planned before final adjustment. The 12′ × 6′ format is intended for wide residential and light-commercial openings with enough clear area for the double-swing arc and suitable structural support. Create a modern two-leaf driveway entrance with horizontal ALU20 lines and contractor-grade aluminum framing. The broad 12-foot format works well where the entrance needs architectural presence as well as vehicle access. Use the repeatable aluminum system where consistent appearance and durable gate construction matter across multiple access points. A practical option for office, mixed-use and light-commercial entries when the opening and use cycle suit a double-swing system. The horizontal aluminum system can be used at pool or perimeter access points when the complete installation, latch, clearance and local safety requirements are satisfied. The reinforced Contractor Line can serve appropriate light-industrial and mixed-use openings where the site conditions suit a double-swing gate. Coordinate the ALU20 horizontal language with compatible aluminum fence systems for a more continuous property design. Aluminum avoids iron-oxide rust and is well suited to environments where steel corrosion maintenance can become a recurring issue. The current listing specifies USA-made 6063-T6 aluminum, architectural powder coating and Cardinal Paint / TIGER powder systems. Aluminum does not develop iron-oxide rust like steel, and the metal substrate is non-combustible. Start with the site and support conditions, then assemble the two heavy-duty leaves square, install the ALU20 infill and complete hinge, stop and access-control alignment before regular use. Confirm the 12-foot overall opening, 6-foot gate height, grade, swing path and center meeting condition before setting support hardware. Select the appropriate post configuration for the site, then install structural supports plumb, aligned and adequately founded for the gate and any operator loads. Lay out the heavy-duty frame sections, inner corner brackets and channel components on a protected flat surface and keep both leaves square during assembly. Install the 2″ × 3/4″ × 6′ ALU20 slats consistently according to the ordered spacing and secure them with the specified fasteners. Hang and align both leaves so they swing freely, maintain clearances and meet correctly at the center without forcing the frame. Complete the L-shape stopper, latch or access-control condition, then test both leaves. If automated, commission the operator and required safety devices as a complete gate system. The listed gate size gives you the overall target, but the installation succeeds only when the two leaves, supports and access hardware are planned around the real site. Measure width and height at multiple points and confirm the finished dimension that the installed gate must serve. Confirm both leaves have clear travel and will not conflict with vehicles, walls, landscaping, slope or required access paths. Choose among the listed post options based on actual structure, footing, exposure and gate-operator requirements rather than appearance alone. If a swing operator will be used, select it before final hardware layout so attachment points, power, safety equipment and travel geometry are coordinated. The ALU20 system can balance privacy and airflow through the ordered slat spacing. Confirm the actual configuration before assembly. AAMA 2604 architectural powder coating is standard to the system, with custom colors and custom gate sizes available for project-specific orders. Watch the gate-system videos for a closer look at Aluglobus aluminum profiles, frame construction and finished gate design. Both videos load only after the visitor clicks the poster, reducing unnecessary page-load work. Common questions about the HD frame, double-swing layout, ALU20 slats, posts, automation, finish and installation planning. For a standard manual installation, verify the finished opening, post condition and double-swing clearance. For automation or custom sizing, send the project information first so the gate, support and operator plan can be coordinated. Before ordering, make sure the gate configuration matches the opening, supports, swing geometry and access-control plan. For a standard 12′ × 6′ gate, verify the real opening and swing area. For custom sizes, custom colors, automation or difficult support conditions, send the project measurements and photos so the configuration can be reviewed first.A 12′ × 6′ horizontal aluminum double-swing gate built around a 4″ heavy-duty contractor frame.

Answers before you order or install the 12′ × 6′ ALU20 Contractor Line gate.
What is the ALU20 SLAT Contractor Line 12′ × 6′ Horizontal Double Swing Gate?
It is a contractor-grade aluminum HD PAD Gate kit configured as a 12-foot-wide by 6-foot-high double swing system. It uses a 4-inch heavy-duty aluminum gate frame with ALU20 horizontal slats and reinforced gate hardware.What size opening is this gate designed around?
The listed configuration is 12′ wide × 6′ high overall. Final installed clearances depend on the selected posts, hinges, center condition and project measurements, so the site opening should be verified before ordering.What components are specified with the gate kit?
The current listing identifies 24′ of 4-inch HD USA aluminum gate-frame material, inner corner brackets, a channel kit, a 6′ L-shape gate stopper, heavy-duty 5-inch two-way support hinges, listed assembly screws and ALU20 2″ × 3/4″ × 6′ slats.Are ALU20 horizontal slats suitable for privacy?
The horizontal ALU20 layout can provide partial to stronger visual privacy depending on the ordered spacing. Confirm the exact slat gap for the project rather than assuming one standard privacy level.Can the double-swing gate be automated?
The product description states that the gate can be configured to support swing-gate automation. The operator must be selected for the actual leaf size and weight, and the post, footing, attachment, power and safety-device requirements must be coordinated for the installation.What post sizes are shown for this Contractor Line gate?
The listing shows 2″, 2.75″ and 2″ × 3″ post options. The correct selection depends on the site conditions, exposure, footing design, gate use and any automation plan.Is it suitable for residential and commercial projects?
Yes. The current page positions this gate for residential driveways, estate entrances, gated communities, commercial properties and other wide access points where the double-swing layout is appropriate.Does the aluminum rust?
6063-T6 aluminum does not form iron-oxide rust like steel. The AAMA 2604 architectural powder coating adds exterior surface protection. Routine cleaning is still recommended, especially in coastal or high-salt environments.How long does an aluminum horizontal swing gate last?
The current listing does not publish a fixed service-life number. Long-term performance depends on correct structural installation, hinge and operator setup, exposure, use cycle and maintenance. Aluminum avoids the rust and rot mechanisms that commonly shorten the life of steel and wood gates.Can I order a custom color or custom size?
Yes. The product listing states that custom colors and custom sizes are available. Confirm the required opening, finish and hardware conditions with Aluglobus before ordering a nonstandard configuration.Is the aluminum non-combustible?
The product lists the aluminum substrate as non-combustible, with no normal ignition behavior and zero smoke development for the metal. That material characteristic does not by itself certify a complete gate installation for every fire-code or defensible-space requirement, so project-specific compliance should still be confirmed.Confirm the 12′ × 6′ opening, supports and swing plan before the kit arrives.
A 12-foot double swing is a system decision, not just a gate-size decision.
Send the opening before you commit to posts, hinges or an operator.
