Apollo® 1.8m High x 4.0m Wide 868 Twin Mesh Single Leaf Gate Kit
Product Description
Apollo® 1.8m High x 4.0m Wide 868 Twin Mesh Single Leaf Gate Kit
The Apollo® 1.8m x 4.0m Single Leaf Gate is a strong, safe and secure gate system, designed for dependable access for both pedestrians and vehicles. With a 4.0m width, this gate is perfectly suited to locations where large equipment, maintenance vehicles, or high volumes of users need frequent access—such as schools, industrial compounds, warehouses, and recreational facilities.
Key Features
868 Twin Mesh Infill
This gate features a robust 868 mesh panel, comprised of twin 8mm horizontal steel wires with a 6mm vertical wire in between them. This sturdy configuration makes the mesh extremely resistant to cutting, prying, or forced entry while still maintaining excellent visibility—ideal for monitored zones using CCTV or other surveillance systems.
The narrow mesh spacing also serves as an effective anti-climb barrier, providing safety without compromising line of sight.
High Quality Steel Frame with Professional Finish
Manufactured from strong, pre-galvanised steel and finished with a durable Polyester Powder Coating (PPC), this gate offers long-term resistance to corrosion and environmental wear. Available in a selection of colours, the finish not only protects but also enhances visual appeal, whether you’re blending into existing fencing or creating a clearly marked access point.
All corners of the gate leaf are neatly mitred to eliminate sharp edges, improving safety for staff, visitors, and passers-by while maintaining a tidy, professional appearance.
Locking Drop Bolt Included
Included with the gate kit is a locking drop bolt, a key component for managing gate positioning and security:
- Secure Closure: Hold the gate firmly closed when not in use, reducing vulnerability to tampering.
- Safe Open Positioning: Keep the gate held open during deliveries, high foot traffic, or maintenance access.
A locking drop bolt is a must-have for wide gates like this; these bolts ensure greater control and stability during day-to-day use.
Modular & Easy to Install
This Apollo® gate has been designed for fast installation and on-site adaptability, making it easy to integrate into a range of fencing systems:
- Universal Handing: Decide left- or right-hand opening during installation; no need to pre-select.
- Pre-Drilled Components: For straightforward fitting of hardware and accessories.
- Plastic Caps & Inserts: Protect internal post and frame sections from water ingress and debris while preserving a clean finish.
Fully compatible with 868, 656, and 358 mesh fencing systems, allowing for seamless perimeter integration.
Install on a Range of Ground Types
This gate can be installed on multiple surface types depending on your site’s conditions:
- Bolt-Down Posts: Ideal for concrete or paved ground. Requires 4x M16 x 125mm ground anchor bolts per post.
- Dig-In Posts: Suitable for turf, soil, or other soft ground. Requires post mix (Please see the recommended quantities when ordering).
Triple Hinge Design for Increased Safety
To ensure safe operation of the wider gate leaf, this model includes a triple hinge setup:
- Weight Distribution: Supports the gate’s added width and mass, preventing sagging.
- Fail-Safe Function: In the unlikely event of a hinge failure, two hinges remain to hold the gate securely, greatly reducing the risk of accidents by preventing the gate leaf from falling to the ground.

- 1 x Gate Leaf (868 Mesh Infill) – 1.8m high x 4.0m wide
