The frame-only starting point for a heavy-duty 4' x 6' gate: a 2x4 in. x 20ft. HD frame with big and small L-corner brackets, channel kits, an integrated L-stopper and one pair of double-support hinges.
4x6 heavy duty aluminum gate frame kit
If you already know what infill you want – a particular slat, a panel that matches existing fencing, or a mix of profiles – start with the frame. This 4×6 heavy duty aluminum gate frame kit supplies the heavy-duty frame and hardware for a 4' x 6' pedestrian gate and leaves the infill choice to you. It is finished in powder-coated black and accepts ¾" or 1" infill profiles.
What's included
| Frame | 2×4 in. x 20ft. HD Frame |
|---|---|
| Corner brackets | Big and small L-corner brackets |
| Channel | Channel kits |
| Stopper | L-stopper integrated on gate frame |
| Hinges | One pair of heavy-duty double-support hinges |
| Finish | Powder-coated black |
Infill, posts and latch are not part of the kit. The individual 2×4 in. x 20ft. HD aluminum gate frame profile is also listed on its own, and it is specified in 6063-T6 aluminum with AAMA 2604 powder coating.
Why build on an HD frame
The 2×4 in. frame section, the L-corner brackets that tie the corners together and the integrated L-stopper make this a stiffer base than a light DIY frame. That matters when your chosen infill is heavy or the gate sees daily use. Double-support hinges carry the leaf on the post side; if you want extra, HD double support hinges are sold by the piece.
Post options
Posts are ordered separately. The price list lists these options for HD gate frame kits:
- 2in. – 1st option
- 3.15 Post – wall and concrete footing
- 2-way – wall mount only
- 3 HD – concrete footing
Choose based on how the gate will be fixed – to a wall, in a concrete footing, or both – and confirm with our team if you are unsure. Check your local code for gate requirements and follow the included instructions.
Who the frame-only kit suits
Contractors who stock their own infill, homeowners matching a gate to an existing fence, and anyone replacing a worn gate leaf while keeping sound posts will get the most from a frame-only kit. If you would rather receive frame and slats together, a boxed DIY pedestrian gate kit is the simpler route.
Sizing
Measure your finished opening and allow for the posts. If a 4' x 6' frame is too small, compare the 6' x 6' HD gate frame kit, which adds a third hinge. For more options, browse all aluminum gates.
