ALU 20 black slat pedestrian gate project
What’s included
A complete 6′ × 6′ gate package built around the Universal DIY frame.
The product listing combines the aluminum frame, gate stops, heavy-duty hinge support and sixteen black ALU20 slats into a coordinated pedestrian-gate package.
Universal aluminum gate frame
The pre-engineered 6′ × 6′ frame includes the wide lock side, top and bottom frame components needed to create the single-swing gate structure.
Wide lock side frame
The side frame is designed around common U.S.-size lock hardware so latch and handle planning can be integrated into the gate.
Gate T-stopper
A coordinated T-stopper is included as part of the gate package for the finished closing condition.
Receiver L-stopper side post
The receiver-side L-stopper component helps complete the wall-to-wall closing side of the pedestrian gate system.
5″ HD support hinge
One heavy-duty 5-inch support hinge is listed with the package. Self-closing applications require the appropriate spring or hydraulic hardware selection.
16 black ALU20 slats
Sixteen 2″ × 3/4″ × 6′ ALU20 aluminum slats create the horizontal infill with either 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch spacing.
Why this 6′ × 6′ configuration
More coverage and privacy while keeping the Universal DIY assembly approach.
At six feet wide and six feet high, this configuration creates a substantial pedestrian entry for front yards, side yards, courtyards and light-commercial access points. The horizontal ALU20 layout keeps the design modern while the selectable slat gap lets the project balance privacy, airflow and visual openness.
- 6′ × 6′ pedestrian format
- Single-swing operation
- 3/8″ or 1/2″ gap
- Black architectural finish
- 6063-T6 aluminum
- Non-combustible substrate
- DIY-oriented assembly
- Low routine maintenance

ALU20 profile details and installation reference
Use the profile drawings to understand the ALU20 geometry and component relationship. Final gate measurements, hinge placement and site conditions should be confirmed for the specific ordered configuration before assembly.
Applications
Built for pedestrian openings where privacy, width and modern curb appeal all matter.
The 6′ × 6′ format works across residential and light-commercial settings where a wide single-swing entry is appropriate and the mounting condition supports the Universal DIY wall-to-wall system.
Front pedestrian entries
Create a substantial modern entrance with six-foot height and a horizontal aluminum rhythm.
Side-yard gates
Use the wider six-foot format where equipment, bikes, bins or larger pedestrian access needs additional clearance.
Courtyards and garden access
Coordinate the black gate with contemporary landscape walls, fencing and exterior architecture.
Multi-unit properties
Use a low-maintenance aluminum pedestrian gate where clean appearance and regular access are priorities.
Light-commercial entries
A practical option for offices, storefront side access and other pedestrian-only openings with suitable mounting conditions.
Coastal and humid climates
Aluminum avoids iron-oxide rust and is well suited to environments where steel maintenance can become a recurring issue.

Durability and finish
Aluminum performance without the rust, rot and repainting cycle of many traditional gate materials.
The frame and slats use 6063-T6 architectural aluminum with an AAMA 2604 powder-coated finish. The black finish is intended for exterior exposure, while the aluminum substrate does not rust like iron-based metal and will not rot, swell or splinter like wood.
6063-T6 aluminum
A strong, workable architectural aluminum alloy used throughout the gate system.
AAMA 2604 finish
Architectural powder-coating performance for long-term exterior color and surface protection.
Non-combustible substrate
The aluminum itself does not ignite or sustain flame under normal fire exposure.
Assembly sequence & buying guide
A clear six-step path from measured opening to aligned single-swing gate.
DIY does not mean guesswork. Confirm the opening and mounting condition first, then keep the frame square throughout assembly and hardware installation.
Verify the opening
Measure the opening at the top, middle and bottom and confirm wall-to-wall mounting surfaces are plumb, solid and suitable for the selected hardware.
Assemble the frame
Lay out the universal frame components on a protected flat surface and assemble the structure while checking diagonals for square.
Install ALU20 slats
Place the horizontal slats consistently using the selected 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch spacing and secure them according to the gate system hardware.
Set hinge hardware
Position the heavy-duty hinge system for the required swing direction and verify that the mounting side can carry the assembled gate.
Set the receiver side
Install and align the receiver-side components, latch or lock hardware, T-stopper and L-stopper for clean closure.
Align and test
Check clearances, fasteners, latch engagement and smooth swing through the full arc before putting the gate into regular service.
Confirm the opening, gap, swing and hardware before the gate arrives.
The Universal DIY system simplifies fabrication, but a six-foot-wide pedestrian leaf still depends on good site measurements and correct hardware planning.
Measure wall to wall
Confirm the finished opening at multiple heights and account for hinge, latch and receiver-side clearances.
Select the gap
Choose 3/8-inch for a tighter visual rhythm or 1/2-inch for slightly more openness and airflow.
Confirm swing direction
Plan whether the gate swings in or out based on available clearance, traffic flow and local requirements.
Plan lock hardware
Confirm the latch or lock body, handle clearance and backset before final assembly of the wide side frame.
Check self-closing needs
If self-closing operation is required, select the compatible spring or hydraulic closer rather than assuming the standard hinge alone provides that function.
Confirm mounting condition
The standard configuration is wall-to-wall. Concrete-footing projects require the HD post upgrade and should be specified before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Answers before you assemble the 6′ × 6′ gate.
Common questions about the package, aluminum construction, installation, finish, gap options and ALU20 compatibility.
What is included in the ALU20 Universal DIY 6′ × 6′ kit?
The listing includes the pre-engineered aluminum gate frame, wide lock side, top and bottom frame, gate T-stopper, receiver L-stopper side component, one heavy-duty 5-inch support hinge and sixteen black ALU20 horizontal slats.
Is the aluminum gate rust-proof?
The 6063-T6 aluminum does not develop iron-oxide rust like steel. The architectural powder coating adds exterior surface protection. Routine cleaning is still recommended, especially in coastal environments.
Can I install the gate myself?
Yes. The system is designed for DIY assembly and is listed at an intermediate DIY skill level. Accurate measurement, frame squaring, drilling, fastening and hinge alignment are still important.
What is the difference between the 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch gap?
The 3/8-inch option creates a tighter slat rhythm with slightly more visual coverage. The 1/2-inch option creates a little more openness and airflow. Choose based on privacy and design preference.
How long will the powder-coated finish last?
The gate uses an AAMA 2604 architectural powder-coated finish intended for long-term exterior exposure. Actual appearance over time depends on climate, cleaning, physical wear and site conditions.
Does this gate match other ALU20 products?
Yes. The ALU20 horizontal slat language is designed to coordinate across compatible Aluglobus aluminum fence and gate systems for a consistent property-wide appearance.
Can this standard gate be installed with posts set in concrete?
The standard Universal DIY specification is wall-to-wall only. A concrete-footing condition requires the HD post upgrade and should be requested before ordering.
Can the gate be self-closing?
The listed heavy-duty hinge is self-closing capable when paired with the appropriate spring or hydraulic closing hardware. Confirm the required closer and site conditions before purchase.
