A side panel is a stationary fence panel, commonly installed next to a pedestrian or driveway gate. Coordinate the slat pattern with your gate or use it to finish a short fence run.
Every kit includes two two-channel aluminum posts, four matching snap covers, two matching post caps, the scheduled slats, assembly screws, and spacer packs where required by the style. See each product’s parts table for the exact quantities supplied at each height.
In-Ground
Set the extended posts in suitable concrete footings. Stock posts are 6′ long for nominal 4′ panels and 8′ long for nominal 5′ and 6′ panels. Cut or embed to suit the planned installation.
Post Base
Includes two steel post bases and two aluminum base covers. Anchor the bases to a suitable structural surface, sleeve the posts over the steel inserts and cut the posts to the required height. Seal the base contact and penetrations with silicone.
Concrete, site-specific anchors, sealant and tools are separate. A gate leaf, hinges and lock are not included. Coordinate any shared gate-bearing post with the gate’s support requirements.
See the Installation Before You Start
The same installation videos featured in our Fence Kits guide show the assembly principles used for an aluminum side panel. Follow the parts list, dimensions and mounting method for your selected kit.

See how the aluminum slats and post channels fit together. Use your side-panel parts list and shop drawing for the selected size.
Installing posts in the ground
Watch the in-ground post installation method. Plan the post positions and footings for the fixed panel beside your gate.
What Alumission Customers Say
G Google ReviewsCustomer experiences with Alumission’s fencing, gates and service.
“The aluminum fencing materials are amazing… light, yet sturdy and worlds above wood fencing that eventually rots and collapses.”
“I cannot imagine an easier way to order the materials to complete a masterful renovation of our back yard fence and gate.”
“We could not be happier with her service and the quality of the product and the pricing. It is the exact look we wanted.”
“The quality really stands out. It’s solid, super well-made, and has noticeably upgraded the overall look of our home.”
“Both gates open and close smoothly. We’re totally sold on Alumission, as is our contractor, who is now recommending it.”
Dimensioned shop drawing
Compare the two mounting methods and see the actual post, slat, base and cover dimensions. The drawing uses a 6′ Los Angeles panel as the assembly example. Each product gallery also includes its own proportional style layout.
Measure the full assembly: selected widths refer to slat-stock length. They are not the clear opening or outside-post width. Nominal kit heights depend on the slat stack, gaps, clearance, caps and mounting. Verify your opening and cut plan before installation.
Which style fits your project?
- Los Angeles: wide 5.5″ horizontal slats with 1/2″ spacing.
- Dallas: wide 5.5″ slats with a band of 1″ accent slats.
- Miami: a mixed-width pattern combining 5.5″ and 1″ slats.
- San Francisco: narrow 1″ slats with 1/2″ spacing.
- New York: closely stacked 5.5″ slats for maximum visual privacy.
Side panel questions
Yes. Every kit includes two two-channel posts, four snap covers and two matching caps. The product’s parts table lists the slats, spacers and hardware.
A fixed side panel can fill a space beside a gate. Match the style and finish, and verify the opening. Gate hinge and latch posts need suitable reinforcement for the gate loads.
Yes. Verify the channel engagement and actual dimensions before cutting aluminum with suitable equipment. Cut or modified material is not returnable.
No. The selected width is the scheduled slat-stock length. The shop drawing shows how post width and slat engagement affect the clear and overall dimensions.
The displayed size-and-color price is the same for either method. Post Base includes two steel bases and two base covers.
No. Wood is a finish on aluminum. The panel’s slats and posts remain aluminum.
Six colors: Black, Bronze, Dark Gray, Light Gray, White and Wood. Eighteen sizes: widths from 1′ through 6′ and nominal heights of 4′, 5′ and 6′.
Yes. These kits include free shipping. Applicable tax is calculated separately.
