Crafted to enhance security and optimise access control in diverse environments, the Apollo® 868 Twin Mesh Double Leaf Gate Kit offers a robust and reliable solution. It is perfectly suited for industrial and commercial sites, educational institutions, residential neighbourhoods, businesses managing substantial inventory, and power stations, and it creates the perfect entrance and exit to your Twin Mesh fencing system.

Features and Benefits

With a height of 1.2 metres and widths ranging from 2.0 to 10.0 metres, this gate kit accommodates both pedestrian and vehicle access and is adaptable to your site's specific needs. The dual-leaf design grants full access control, empowering you to operate either one or both leaves as needed. These gates boast a unique 868 Twin Mesh composition, comprising 8mm horizontal and 6mm vertical wires, striking a balance between visibility and security. This construction allows observation through the gate while discouraging unauthorised entry and blocking the passage of large items through the mesh gaps. Additionally, the mesh structure ensures durability and safety, making it suitable for environments where children frequent, such as schools or recreational areas.

Constructed from pre-galvanised steel, the gates are resistant to rust formation. For enhanced protection against corrosion and damage, you have the option to select an additional layer of polyester powder coating, providing a vibrant and durable finish. The gates also feature smooth and flush mitred corners for a polished appearance.

A Fully Modular System

The Apollo® 868 Twin Mesh Gate offers a modular design tailored for quick hardware adjustments, ensuring effortless and prompt installation. Universally handed, these gates feature centrally welded mesh, removing the need for fixed left or right-hand leaves. This grants flexibility during installation, allowing you to select the orientation on-site without specific right or left-hand specifications. Each gate is pre-drilled with holes for hassle-free hardware installation, with plastic plugs provided to cover any unused holes.

The Apollo® 868 Twin Mesh Gate is incredibly adaptable and can accommodate various ground conditions. For solid surfaces like concrete, we suggest the bolt-down option, whereas for softer ground like soil or turf, the dig-in format is preferable. It's important to note that opting for the dig-in style will necessitate adding Post Mix to your order, while selecting the bolt-down format will require four M16 x 125mm Ground Anchor Bolts per post.

The gate range adheres to BS 12604 safety standards. It comes with pre-drilled holes for effortless installation of a Safety Tether, available as an optional addition to your order. By installing the tether, the gate aligns with DHF (Door and Hardware Federation) recommendations, maintaining its position within 300mm of its vertical axis in the event of top hinge failure. Moreover, you can opt to include a locking drop bolt with your order, which is especially recommended for the double leaf gate.

Each kit comes with hinge posts, gate leaves, adjustable gate eyes, and ribbed inserts for the posts.

For security, add a First Fence Slider Kit, which complements all single leaf gates within the range. This kit includes a lasered surround, slam plate, retainer, slide bolt, guide plate, and other essential fixings. Or you can choose a Latch Deadlock Kit, Quick Exit Keylatch Kit (left or right hand), Quick Exit Digital Kit (left or right hand), Digital Single or Double Sided Kit, or a Deadbolt Kit. Add a Locking Plate which will make the gate more difficult to climb by minimising footholds, and a lockable drop bolt to keep your gate securely in the closed position. An Apollo® IFAM E-70 Padlock will add additional site security, fitting around the latch bolt helping to prevent unauthorised access.

The Apollo® Gates can be used with the 868 and 358 twin mesh ranges from First Fence.
