The Hi-Tech Framed series is built for a modern exterior. Narrow horizontal profiles sit inside a clean traditional frame, giving you greater security and privacy without completely obscuring your home. You keep visibility from the inside looking out, while the view in is screened.

The Hi-Tech Frameless series drops the visible frame. Narrow horizontal profiles are braced from behind so the panel appears to float, for the most minimal, architectural read of the three. It holds the same inside-out visibility while raising privacy from the outside.

The Hi-Tech 45° series angles its horizontal elements downward at 45 degrees. That angle lets air move through while bringing greater privacy, so you keep visibility from the inside out and the view in stays screened. The most private profile in the Hi-Tech family.

'Profile 24' refers to the 24mm depth of each slat. Simple horizontal or vertical profiles in varying widths and gap sizes make it our most versatile series, suitable for almost any home or business, and engineered to accommodate hilly terrain.

Mixed 24 runs vertical and horizontal slats together in the same panel, so one gate carries both directions. It breaks up a long run and gives the entry a focal point without changing the material or the finish anywhere else on the property.

Mixed with Glass sets laminated glass panels among the 24mm slats. The glass brings light and reflection into the entry while the slats hold the structure and keep the screening where you want it.

Black laminated glass set in a fully welded aluminium frame. From outside it reads as a solid, reflective plane and gives you complete privacy; from inside you keep the daylight and the view. Every panel is laminated for safety and security, and the frame is powder-coated inside and out.

White laminated glass in the same welded aluminium frame. It diffuses light rather than reflecting it, so the gate reads bright and soft against a light-coloured house instead of as a dark plane. Maximum glass panel size is 3'×4', and larger openings are made up as a grid of panels within the frame.

The core Solid build: a closed aluminium panel with no gaps at all, in four profile widths — 120, 160, 180 and 220mm. The wider the profile, the fewer lines across the panel and the heavier it reads from the street. It is the only Solid sub-series offered running vertically as well as horizontally, so the same panel can be turned to suit the elevation.

The Solid panel broken into a traditional design: two rows, three rows or four-plus rows of panelling, or a shaped face in X, hexagon or square. It carries the privacy of a solid gate with the detail of a panelled front door, which is what suits an older or more formal frontage.

The frameless take on Solid: the panel is built from one to six sheets with no surrounding frame, so the face reads as a single plane. Fewer sheets means a cleaner, larger surface; more sheets break the height into bands. The sheet material can limit the choice on a taller gate, so the height is decided with you.

A solid horizontal panel with glass sections set into it, so the gate keeps its privacy at eye level while letting light through elsewhere. It is the one Solid sub-series that is not offered as an overhead door.

A mid-tone oak grain, warmer and lighter than walnut. It is the pattern that sits most easily against the widest range of houses, which is why it is the one most often specified.

A dark walnut grain on aluminium. It reads as the richest and most traditional of the three patterns and holds its own against stone, brick and dark stucco. None of wood's rot, splitting, cracking or degradation.

A light golden cedar grain, the closest of the three to freshly cut timber. It keeps that colour permanently, which real cedar does not — cedar greys within a season or two outdoors.

A single profile width running the whole panel, with the tongue-and-groove joint closing each seam. The most restrained of the Tongue & Groove profiles: it reads as one continuous surface from any distance.

A solid tongue-and-groove panel with a band of Hi-Tech louvres set into it, so one gate gives you full privacy across most of its height and airflow and light where the louvres run.
