Steel-Framed Aluminium Privacy Gate System – Wicklow

We built and installed this privacy gate system in Wicklow using a heavy-duty steel frame fitted with vertical aluminium wood-effect slats. Each slat was mounted over an aluminium backing plate engineered to provide complete visual and physical privacy across the gate. This layered construction combines the rigidity of the steel framework with the corrosion resistance and weight efficiency of aluminium.

The gate was fitted with a central handle and latch mechanism, providing a practical operating and closing point between the gate sections. The heavy-duty steel framework forms the primary structural support, while the lightweight aluminium components help control the overall gate weight. This combination enables the structure to manage its wide span without sagging while maintaining consistent alignment. The backing plate is integrated directly behind the vertical slats, preventing gaps through the gate and strengthening the privacy barrier without introducing unnecessarily heavy infill materials.

The completed project is a durable, full-privacy entrance system designed, built and installed by our team for the Wicklow property.
