Benefits: Why Homeowners and Contractors Choose It

The HD Double Gate NEW H-D ALU40 Slat Contractor Line 12×6 Double Swing Black is built for performance, convenience, and aesthetics. Every element — from the powder-coated finish to the reinforced welds — has been refined to meet the highest standards of modern construction.

Here’s why it stands out:

• True heavy-duty strength: ALU40 slats are thicker and more rigid than typical residential aluminum systems, delivering exceptional stability even in large 12-foot spans.

• Contractor-grade hardware: Engineered hinges and latch systems ensure long-term alignment and smooth, reliable swing motion.

• Weather-resistant coating: The black powder-coat finish meets AAMA standards for UV and corrosion resistance, so the gate stays beautiful for years.

• Modern, minimalist design: The horizontal slat layout complements today’s architectural styles — from contemporary homes to commercial buildings.

• Fast installation: Pre-engineered parts make it easier for installers and contractors to complete projects efficiently without compromising precision.

For homeowners, this means less maintenance and a gate that enhances property value instantly. For contractors, it means fewer callbacks, easier alignment, and a professional-looking product that installs right the first time.

Design & Durability: Materials, Finishes, Customization

At the heart of the HD Double Gate NEW H-D ALU40 Slat Contractor Line 12×6 Double Swing Black is precision-crafted aluminum. Each frame and slat is made from 6063-T6 architectural-grade aluminum, a material chosen for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to corrosion. Unlike steel or iron gates that can rust or warp, this gate’s structural integrity stays intact even in coastal or high-moisture environments.

The black powder-coated finish is baked at high temperature for deep adhesion, ensuring a long-lasting matte texture that resists UV fading, salt air, and scratches. Its horizontal slat configuration not only provides privacy but also complements the linear geometry of modern architecture.

Customization Options:
While the standard 12×6 double swing gate comes in elegant black, custom finishes, textures, and slat spacing can be made to order. Contractors can request special hardware configurations or automation compatibility for motorized gate systems. Homeowners can pair it with matching pedestrian gates or aluminum fencing for a seamless perimeter look.

Every detail is engineered for heavy use — internal reinforcements, precision welds, and adjustable hinges make this a long-term investment in your property’s appearance and functionality.
