Description
The ALU40 Contractor Line 12′ × 6′ Double Swing Black gate kit is a heavy-duty aluminum system for wide residential, estate, driveway and light-commercial openings. It combines a 4-inch HD USA aluminum gate frame, 4-inch ALU40 horizontal slats, inner corner reinforcement, a channel kit, a 6-foot L-shape stopper, 5-inch two-way support hinge hardware, a basic cane bolt and listed assembly fasteners in a two-leaf swing configuration. Explore the actual black ALU40 Contractor Line media from the current product page, including the heavy-duty frame, horizontal slat layout, finish and gate-system details. 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, inner corner reinforcement, channel components, ALU40 infill, a center closing condition and two-way hinge support for professional installation. This black 12′ × 6′ configuration uses two swing leaves, a 4-inch heavy-duty USA aluminum frame and ALU40 4″ × 3/4″ × 6′ horizontal slats with a 3/8″ or 1/2″ gap option. The live product listing identifies the 24′ 4″ HD USA aluminum gate-frame stock, inner corner bracket, channel kit, 6′ L-shape gate stopper, heavy-duty 5″ two-way support hinge, basic cane bolt, listed screws, 2″ aluminum cap and black 6′ ALU40 slat profile used for 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 ALU40 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 black infill is the ALU40 6′ profile. The matching ALU40 product specification identifies a 4″ × 3/4″ × 6′ profile, and this gate is offered with a 3/8″ or 1/2″ gap. Optional additions on the live product listing include 3″ × 3″ HD support posts in 8′ and 12′ options, plus matching 3″ aluminum caps. Final support selection depends on the site, footing, exposure and operator plan. A basic cane bolt is listed with the gate kit for the double-swing closing and hold-open / hold-closed condition as appropriate to the installation. A 2-inch aluminum cap is included in the current gate-kit parts list. Custom gate colors, sizes and slat spacing are available for project-specific orders, with optional HD posts and caps selected separately. 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 wider 4-inch ALU40 profile gives the opening a stronger horizontal architectural rhythm. Use the additional views to inspect the aluminum system, horizontal slat language and exterior finish in more detail. Use the ALU40 profile reference to understand the 4-inch horizontal infill, then compare it with actual black Contractor Line product media. Final gate dimensions, post conditions, center meeting condition and hardware placement should be confirmed for the actual project. The product is designed as a heavy-duty Contractor Line 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. The live listing offers 3″ × 3″ HD post options in 8′ and 12′ lengths, with black and custom-color choices. Selection should match the actual opening, load, exposure, footing 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 be planned for 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. These items are shown as additional elements on the current page. Treat them as project options rather than assuming they are included with the base gate kit, and confirm compatibility before ordering. 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 wider 4-inch ALU40 horizontal 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 ALU40 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 product content identifies 6063-T6 aluminum and an architectural powder-coated exterior finish. The matching black ALU40 slat specification identifies AAMA 2604 super-durable powder coating. 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 4″ ALU40 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 4″ × 3/4″ × 6′ ALU40 slats consistently using the ordered 3/8″ or 1/2″ gap and secure the system with the specified channel and fastener components. 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 the optional 3″ × 3″ HD support-post configuration 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. Choose the listed 3/8″ or 1/2″ ALU40 gap based on the desired visual coverage and openness, then confirm that configuration before assembly. The black ALU40 slat specification identifies AAMA 2604 super-durable powder coating. Custom colors, sizes and slat spacing are available for project-specific orders.

Common questions about the 4″ HD frame, double-swing layout, 4″ ALU40 slats, 3/8″ or 1/2″ gap, 3″ HD posts, automation and black finish. 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′ black ALU40 double-swing gate built around a 4″ heavy-duty contractor frame.

Answers before you order or install the 12′ × 6′ black ALU40 Contractor Line gate.
What is the ALU40 Contractor Line 12′ × 6′ Double Swing Black gate?
It is a heavy-duty Contractor Line aluminum gate kit configured as a 12-foot-wide by 6-foot-high double swing system. It uses a 4-inch HD USA aluminum gate frame with black 4-inch ALU40 horizontal slats and the listed 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 live listing identifies 24′ of 4-inch HD USA aluminum gate-frame material, inner corner bracket, channel kit, 6′ L-shape gate stopper, heavy-duty 5-inch two-way support hinge, basic cane bolt, #10 × 1″, #12 × 2″ black and #10 × 3/4″ screws, a 2″ aluminum cap and black 6′ ALU40 slats.What gap options are listed for the ALU40 slats?
The product title lists a 3/8″ or 1/2″ gap. The tighter 3/8″ rhythm provides slightly more visual coverage, while 1/2″ creates a little more openness. Confirm the selected gap before assembly.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 live product options show 3″ × 3″ HD support posts in 8′ and 12′ lengths, plus 3″ aluminum caps. Black and custom-color post options are listed. The correct support condition still depends on footing, exposure, gate use and automation.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 gate develop iron-oxide rust like steel?
6063-T6 aluminum does not form iron-oxide rust like steel. The black ALU40 slat specification identifies AAMA 2604 super-durable powder coating for exterior 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 aluminum substrate is non-combustible and does not sustain flame like combustible materials. That material characteristic does not by itself certify the complete installed gate 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.
