Designed for demanding environments that require high security and smooth access, the Apollo 3.0m High x 4.5m Wide 868 Twin Mesh Single Leaf Gate Kit is a robust and versatile solution. With its extra-tall profile and wide single-leaf design, this gate is ideal for areas where both pedestrian and vehicle access must be safely managed without compromising perimeter protection or visual oversight.
The gate features 868 twin mesh—made from two 8mm horizontal wires sandwiching a 6mm vertical wire. This configuration offers superb rigidity, vandal resistance, and anti-climb capabilities. The tight mesh pattern makes it nearly impossible to scale or cut while still allowing high visibility across the boundary—an essential requirement for surveillance and safety in public and private settings.
Standing 3.0 metres tall, this gate provides a strong visual and physical deterrent. Its towering design is particularly effective in preventing unauthorised climbing or access, making it ideal for protecting high-risk areas such as logistics yards, service compounds, and critical infrastructure zones.
The generous 4.5m opening provides ample space for authorised vehicles, machinery, and pedestrian traffic. Despite its size, the single leaf is carefully engineered to open and close smoothly. This makes it ideal for routine operations involving delivery vans, ground maintenance equipment, or emergency access routes.
Every Apollo gate comes with a modular slider plate. This can be padlocked for basic security or upgraded to include a digital lock or quick-exit locking system. It’s ideal for sites that require controlled access for staff or rapid egress in emergencies. The adaptability ensures the gate meets both general and high-security needs.
Installation flexibility is built in. The gate can be configured as either left-hand or right-hand hung depending on site layout, ensuring seamless integration into existing perimeter systems without the need for additional modifications.
Our Apollo gates are engineered for superior safety and full compliance with the BS EN 12604 standard, featuring a robust three-hinge system. This design ensures that in the unlikely event one hinge was to fail, the gate leaf remains securely in place, preventing it from falling and causing potential injury or damage. This crucial third hinge provides the necessary redundancy to meet the stringent safety requirement that a gate should not collapse due to a single point of failure.
Constructed from pre-galvanised steel in accordance with BS EN 10346, and finished with a polyester powder coating to BS 13438, the Apollo gate is designed to resist corrosion, rust, and weathering over time. This ensures a long service life with minimal maintenance.
The Apollo gate integrates effortlessly with a variety of mesh fencing systems, making it a highly versatile choice for many installations. It is fully compatible with 868 Twin Mesh, 656 Twin Mesh, V Mesh, and Safe Top Mesh fencing. Whether you're extending an existing boundary or installing a completely new perimeter, this gate offers seamless alignment and a consistent, professional finish across your fencing system.
Choose between bolt down posts for solid surfaces like concrete, or dig in posts for soft ground installations. Both options offer a secure and stable foundation to support this heavy-duty gate.
