Cut to Your Gate
The supplied cable is 20 feet long and can be cut to the required diagonal run. Cable length does not specify the maximum gate width or weight.
This stainless steel gate anti-sag cable kit adds adjustable diagonal support to aluminum swing-gate frames. The gate support cable and connected turnbuckle help keep a properly constructed gate square and reduce latch-side sag.
The kit includes a 20-foot stainless steel cable with a stainless steel hook-and-eye turnbuckle already connected, two 3/8″ × 4″ 304 stainless steel eye bolts, and one 5/32″ aluminum double-barrel crimp sleeve. Cut the cable to the exact length required, form the final loop with the sleeve, and fine-tune support with the turnbuckle.
The supplied cable is 20 feet long and can be cut to fit the installation. This is the cable length, not a gate-width or load-capacity rating. Measure the required cable run and confirm the attachment points before ordering.
Compare Los Angeles style single-swing gates and double-swing driveway gates, or ask Alumission about your gate configuration before choosing support hardware.
A correctly fitted and tensioned gate support cable helps resist latch-side sag. Follow the gate's installation instructions for the attachment points and support the gate frame before making adjustments.
The supplied cable is 20 feet long and can be cut to the required diagonal run. Cable length does not specify the maximum gate width or weight.
Rotate the connected turnbuckle gradually after the gate frame has been aligned and squared.
Use one kit on a single swing gate or one kit on each double-gate leaf that needs support.
The diagonal cable supports the latch side of a properly constructed and hinged gate frame.
Every supplied component is stainless steel except the purpose-built aluminum crimp sleeve used to lock the cut cable loop.
Two 3/8″ × 4″ marine-grade 304 stainless steel eye bolts provide secure attachment points.
The stainless hook-and-eye turnbuckle arrives connected to the 20-foot cable.
The included 5/32″ double-barrel sleeve secures the cable at its finished length.
Inspect the cable and attachment points and make small tension corrections if the gate settles.
Included: One 20′ stainless steel cable with connected stainless steel hook-and-eye turnbuckle; two 3/8″ × 4″ 304 marine-grade stainless steel eye bolts with nuts and washers; and one 5/32″ aluminum double-barrel cable crimp sleeve.
Sold separately: Gate frame, posts, hinges, cable cutter, crimping tool, wrenches, and project-specific installation hardware.
Review the cable, eye-bolt, turnbuckle, and crimp-sleeve specifications before cutting or tensioning the cable.
Square and properly support the gate before adding cable tension. Tighten the turnbuckle gradually—excessive tension can pull the frame out of square or overload the hinges and attachment points.
Answers about compatibility, included components, cable sizing, installation, and adjustment.
It provides adjustable diagonal support that helps keep a swing-gate frame square and reduces downward sag at the latch side.
It is designed for framed aluminum single swing gates and double swing gate leaves, especially wide or long gates that benefit from diagonal support.
Use one kit for each gate leaf that requires support. A two-leaf gate may therefore require two kits.
Yes. Cut the 20-foot cable to the required length and use the included aluminum sleeve to form and secure the finished loop.
No. Damaged hinges, loose fasteners, weak posts, or frame damage must be corrected before the cable is tensioned.
No. Twenty feet is the supplied cable length, not a gate-width or load-capacity rating. Measure the diagonal cable run and confirm the gate frame, hinges and attachment points for your application.
One 20-foot stainless cable with connected turnbuckle, two 3/8″ × 4″ 304 stainless eye bolts with nuts and washers, and one 5/32″ aluminum double-barrel crimp sleeve.
The cable, turnbuckle, eye bolts, nuts, and washers are stainless steel. The cable crimp sleeve is aluminum.
Use the attachment points specified for your gate and cable assembly. Support and square the gate before fitting and tensioning the diagonal cable. Contact Alumission if the required attachment layout is unclear.
Square the gate first, then rotate the turnbuckle in small increments until the cable is firm. Do not overtighten.
Installation generally requires a drill and bits, wrenches, measuring tools, a wire-rope cable cutter, and a crimping or swaging tool suitable for the sleeve.
Yes. The supplied cable and primary hardware are stainless steel, and the crimp sleeve is aluminum. Inspect the assembly periodically.
