Aluminum Frame Gates Easy To Move
Duralume of Linwood, Ontario, specializes in lightweight aluminum farm gates. Aluminum construction eliminates rust issues while maintaining a lightweight frame, allowing users to handle and move alone. This makes each piece easy to move and eliminates sagging posts while still offering a strength advantage.
Five gate styles are currently available: standard, mesh, puckboard, spindle, and spiral. Standard gates offer premium strength for general-purpose uses. They work well as bull, cattle, and equine gates, though they really shine as dairy barn gates. The standard height is 48 in. (though others can be custom-ordered), and lengths range from 4 to 20 ft.
The mesh gates are better suited for sheep, goats, and other small livestock. They’re constructed from 1 1/4-in. by 1 1/4-in. T5 aluminum tubing with a 2-ft. high aluminum mesh skirt. Custom sizes are available, as well as horizontal sleeves.
Puckboard gates are also well-suited for smaller animals and make an excellent dog kennel gate. Each contains a 2-ft. high puckboard skirt (high-density polyethylene)—a soft plastic known for its impact resistance and durability.
Duralume’s spindle gates feature the brand’s trademark lightweight construction with vertical spindles. The gates work well for sheep, goats, and other small animals. Unlike the other options, the standard height is 39 in.
Finally, the spiral gates add a subtle flare with spiraled spindles. They come at a standard 48-in. height (other sizes can be custom-ordered) and are best suited for small livestock. Horizontal sleeves are an option. It’s an understated way to add some elegance to your setup.
Duralume also produces lightweight, maneuverable travel corrals. Each section can easily be loaded onto a horse trailer for setup at any location within minutes. Choose from a 6-bar (60 in.) or 7-bar (77 in.) height.
Likewise, the Duralume calf hutch system offers all the necessary components for group calf housing within one maneuverable solution. Group calf hutches make for high-quality intermediate calf housing and confinement without tying the calves. The trademark lightweight aluminum construction provides strength and reliability. Standard sizing is 12 ft. by 9 ft.
Pricing per fence piece depends on the style, sizing, and shipping location. Contact Duralume directly for a custom quote.
