Apollo® 1.8m High x 10.0m Wide 868 Twin Mesh Double Leaf Gate Kit

Apollo® 1.8m High x 10.0m Wide 868 Twin Mesh Double Leaf Gate Kit

The Apollo 1.8m High x 10.0m Wide 868 Twin Mesh Double Leaf Gate Kit is a high-performance, heavy-duty access solution designed for large-scale sites that require wide access points without compromising on strength, visibility, or security. With a total span of 10.0 metres (5.0 metres per gate leaf), this gate is perfectly suited to areas that require vehicle access for delivery trucks, plant machinery, service vehicles, or high foot traffic zones.

The gate is constructed using the robust 868 twin wire mesh system, featuring 6mm vertical wires that intersect with 8mm horizontal wires, forming a durable and vandal-resistant barrier. The tight mesh spacing makes climbing difficult while maintaining high visibility and airflow through the gate, which is ideal for surveillance, safety, and maintaining an open, non-intimidating appearance. This design is especially beneficial in public spaces or work environments where aesthetics and functionality need to work hand in hand.

With a height of 1.8 metres, this gate provides a physical and visual deterrent to intruders, helping protect your premises from unauthorised access. Its clean and modern design makes it suitable for use in locations such as schools, industrial parks, public facilities, and logistics yards, offering a secure yet welcoming entrance.

Each gate frame is manufactured from pre-galvanised steel to BS EN 10346 standards, ensuring a long-lasting barrier that is resistant to rust and corrosion. The frame and mesh panels are then powder-coated to BS 13438, giving the gate an additional protective layer and an attractive finish. A wide choice of RAL colours is available to ensure the gate matches your existing fencing, branding, or environmental setting.

For added strength, the Apollo gate is constructed with mitred corners that not only enhance the structural integrity but also deliver a neat, professional finish. These reinforced corners are particularly important on wider gates like this, ensuring reliable performance even in high-use environments.

Security features include a sliding latch that can be padlocked for standard access control, or upgraded with digital security locks or quick-exit devices for more demanding or regulated applications. Drop bolts are included to keep each gate leaf firmly in position when closed or secured open.

With a triple hinge design, these Apollo gates meet the standards set out by the DHF and BS EN 12604 in preventing a gate leaf from falling in the unlikely event of a single hinge failure

This gate kit offers installation flexibility, with the option of bolt-down posts for concrete surfaces or dig-in posts for soil or grassed areas. The gate is also fully compatible with 868 mesh fencing systems, as well as 656 mesh, V mesh, and many other industry-standard panels, making it easy to integrate into existing perimeter setups.

Applications

Common applications for this gate include distribution centres, commercial compounds, educational campuses, sports grounds, council-owned properties, and utility infrastructure sites. Wherever wide, secure, and low-maintenance access is required, the Apollo 1.8m x 10.0m gate delivers unmatched performance.
