The Apollo 2.4m High x 7.0m Wide 868 Twin Mesh Double Leaf Gate Kit is a high-performance entry solution designed for sites that require secure and reliable access control. Manufactured from pre-galvanised steel and finished with a hard-wearing polyester powder coating, this gate is built to withstand tough conditions while maintaining a clean, professional appearance. Its 2.4-metre height makes it ideal for use in areas where enhanced perimeter security is a priority, while the generous 7.0-metre width offers ample space for large vehicles, plant machinery, and service equipment to pass through.
The gate features a robust 868 twin mesh design, consisting of two horizontal 8mm wires and one vertical 6mm wire, welded together to create a strong, rigid panel. This structure is known for its resistance to cutting and deformation, making it particularly effective for applications where vandalism or unauthorised entry may be a concern. Despite its strength, the open mesh design allows for good visibility, which is especially useful in environments where surveillance is important.
For ease of use, the gate is supplied with adjustable hinges, a secure sliding latch and drop bolts to hold each leaf in place when open or closed. The gate leaves also feature mitred corners, offering additional strength and a refined finish. The system is compatible with a variety of access control options, such as traditional padlocks or more advanced digital locking mechanisms, allowing it to be tailored to the security requirements of your site.
This gate is suitable for a wide range of applications. It is commonly used around schools, colleges, and sports facilities, where it provides safe and secure access while blending into the surrounding environment. In commercial and industrial settings, it serves as an excellent solution for controlling access to service yards, warehouses, and loading bays. It is also well-suited to infrastructure sites and public spaces, including car parks, playgrounds and utility compounds.
The Apollo 2.4m High x 7.0m Wide Double Leaf Gate is fully compatible with a broad range of mesh fencing systems. It can be integrated with 868 twin mesh, 656 twin mesh, V mesh, safe top mesh, and other rigid mesh fencing of similar specification. This compatibility makes it easy to create a unified perimeter fence that looks professional and performs reliably.
Featuring a triple hinge design, the Apollo® 2.4m x 7.0m double leaf gates meet the standards set out by BS EN 12604, as well as the DHF recommendations for preventing potential injuries that may occur from a gate leaf falling in the unlikely event of a single hinge failure.
Designed to be simple to install, this gate is available with either bolt-down or dig-in post options depending on your site requirements. All essential fixings are included in the kit, with the exception of post mix or anchor bolts. Whether installed by a professional contractor or an experienced DIY user, the Apollo Twin Mesh Gate offers a reliable, long-term solution for access control and perimeter security.
