Heavy-Duty Performance and Modern Aesthetic
One of the defining characteristics of the ALU40 Contractor Line 6×6 Gate Kit HD Pad Gate is its combination of heavy-duty engineering and refined design. Unlike traditional steel gates that may rust or become difficult to operate over time, aluminum delivers long-term performance without corrosion or weight-related strain. The HD pad construction adds extra structural support, making the gate ideal for high-traffic environments and large residential openings.
This product integrates the clean vertical-slat aesthetic popular among modern homeowners and contractors. Vertical aluminum fencing and gates elevate curb appeal, creating a taller, more contemporary visual line. For properties that demand both privacy and style, this gate kit provides a polished architectural accent while still functioning as a secure entrance point.
Built for Reliable Residential and Contractor Installations
The ALU40 Contractor Line 6×6 Gate Kit HD Pad Gate is specifically designed to meet the needs of homeowners who want a reliable, long-lasting gate system as well as contractors who require a durable, easy-to-install product. Because aluminum is significantly lighter than steel while maintaining impressive strength, installation is easier, quicker, and more efficient—saving time and labor costs in professional settings.
The gate kit is resistant to rust, fading, moisture exposure, and temperature fluctuations. Unlike wood gates that warp or steel structures that corrode, the ALU40 Contractor Line 6×6 Gate Kit HD Pad Gate maintains its clean lines and smooth operation year after year. This makes it a popular choice in coastal regions, humid areas, and climates with seasonal temperature extremes.
Easy Operation and Minimal Maintenance
Another major advantage of the ALU40 Contractor Line 6×6 Gate Kit HD Pad Gate is the ease of daily use. Aluminum opens and closes smoothly without the heavy drag of steel or the swelling and sticking of wood. Whether used as a side-yard gate, driveway entry, or private-access barrier, the gate maintains consistent functionality without requiring constant upkeep.
Maintenance needs are minimal. A quick rinse with water is typically all that’s required to keep the gate looking fresh. No sanding, painting, or sealing is needed—making aluminum one of the most cost-effective long-term materials for outdoor gate systems. For busy homeowners or contractors managing multiple installs, this low-maintenance benefit is a major selling point.
Strength, Security, and Long-Term Value
A major reason homeowners and contractors choose the ALU40 Contractor Line 6×6 Gate Kit HD Pad Gate is its ability to deliver long-term value. The reinforced pad design offers additional structural security, making the gate resistant to impact, warping, and operational wear. For properties that prioritize both appearance and safety, this gate serves as a dependable and attractive upgrade.

Before beginning installation, ensure all components of the Profile40 contractor line 6′ x 6′ GATE KIT (HD PAD GATE) are present and undamaged. Lay out the gate frame sections, Profile20 slats, hardware, hinges, and accessories on a clean, flat surface to prevent scratching or misplacement.
Confirm the gate opening width and height, ensuring posts are securely installed, plumb, and properly spaced to support a 12 ft double swing configuration. Verify that ground conditions allow full swing clearance and that local building codes and setback requirements are met before installation.
Prepare the required tools, including a level, tape measure, drill, socket set, and safety equipment, to ensure accurate alignment, smooth hinge operation, and a professional-grade installation.
Assemble the top, bottom, and side frame components on a flat surface. Ensure all corners are square before fastening.
Secure frame pieces using the supplied hardware, tightening fasteners evenly to maintain proper alignment. Double-check measurements and squareness before fully tightening all connections.

Maintain the pre-designed between each slat to ensure consistent spacing and a clean, uniform appearance. Ensure slats are fully seated and aligned before installing the next piece.
Continue until all slats are installed, then confirm the panel remains square and level.
