Aluminium alloy 6005 belongs to the 6000 series, with magnesium and silicon as key alloying elements. It is commonly used for structural components that require strength. Alufence uses Alloy 6005 for the load-bearing structural components of its gates and TIS-compliant Alloy 6063 for decorative profiles, matching each material to its role.

A quality aluminium gate is strong enough for residential use. Alufence specifies locks and hardware to Australian standards. Assemblies are screw-fixed with no welds, for a clean finish and long-term durability.

Aluminium gates suit many styles — modern, minimal, loft, tropical and formal — because form, colour and pattern can be varied. Alufence offers parallel battens, solid panels and distinctive Random Design so each frontage can feel unique.

Aluminium gates are simple to care for: wipe with clean water or a mild cleaner, with no need to repaint or treat for rust, and lubricate moving parts once or twice a year. Alufence products are designed for minimal maintenance over their service life.

Installation typically takes 1–3 days depending on size and complexity. Alufence’s specialist crew covers survey, design, fabrication and installation, with a handover inspection so the finished work meets standard and client expectations.

Quality aluminium railing is strong enough for balconies and walkways in tall buildings. Alufence imports Australian-standard systems in TIS-certified Alloy 6063 T5, screw-fixed with no welds, for strength and a clean appearance.

Aluminium railing is lighter, easier to install, does not rust, and offers more colour and design options. Stainless steel can be stronger but is heavier and costlier to maintain. Alufence has detailed comparison articles and consultants to help match material to the job and budget.

Yes. Aluminium railing can be designed with safety glass for open views and secure edges. Alufence Balcony Railing supports full-aluminium and glass-combined systems, suited to homes and condominiums that need a clear outlook.

Safety practice typically calls for at least 90–110 cm for homes and 110 cm for public buildings. Alufence designs and fabricates to the required size while following Thai and Australian safety standards.

Aluminium railing suits many building types: houses, condominiums, offices, hotels, resorts, restaurants and retail. Alufence has more than 15 years’ experience designing and installing aluminium railing across project types in Thailand.

Alloy 6063 T5 used for railing has tensile strength suitable for railing structures. Alufence systems follow Australian structural-strength practice. The engineering team can provide further technical data for project requirements.

Alufence’s Italian Powder Coat is highly resistant to UV and outdoor weather. Alufence provides a 10-year colour warranty against fading beyond ΔE CIELAB = 5.0 (test standard: ISO 7724/3) and peeling, helping exterior railings retain their appearance for longer.

Railing installation should be done by trained installers who understand the system, because it affects safety directly. Alufence’s crew is trained specifically on aluminium systems and installs to standard on every project.

Yes. Aluminium can be formed into many patterns — straight lines, battens, grids and custom designs. Alufence’s design team can create distinctive railing that fits the architecture and style of your home.

Maintenance is much lower than steel or timber: no repainting or rust treatment, just cleaning with a damp cloth and an annual check of bolts and screws. Alufence systems are designed for long service with minimal special care.

An aluminium façade (façade / batten) is aluminium battens or panels fixed to walls or structure for screening, sun and rain control, and architectural finish. Alufence offers light aluminium batten and façade systems for both exterior and interior work.

Yes. A façade on walls or roofs shades the building surface before sun hits it, reducing heat gain and helping interiors stay cooler — especially with well-designed batten spacing. Alufence consultants can balance appearance with shading performance.

Aluminium battens do not swell, shrink, rot or attract termites; they are lighter, easier to maintain and last much longer. Timber feels naturally warm but needs more care. Alufence also offers Wood Grain aluminium that looks close to timber with far greater durability.

Many profiles are available — round, square, rectangular, D-shaped and special sections — with adjustable size and spacing. Alufence stocks multiple batten sizes and can design custom profiles for the architecture.

Uses include front privacy screens, exterior feature walls, canopy roofs, window sunscreens, interior partitions and commercial façades. Alufence has installed aluminium façades for homes, hotels, shops and offices.

Care is simple: rinse with clean water or wipe with a damp cloth — no repainting or special chemicals. Alufence Powder Coat resists UV and weather with a 10-year colour warranty, so façades stay looking good with little special attention.

Aluminium is about three times lighter than steel, so façades add little structural load and typical house walls can support them. Alufence designs fixings and frames for each wall type; the crew surveys and recommends the safest install method.

Yes. A well-designed façade improves curb appeal and can support higher property value. Alufence designers help create façades that match the house style so the home looks more distinctive and refined.

Yes — horizontal, vertical and diagonal, depending on the design. Alufence supplies frames and fixings for each orientation, and the design team can plan a result that is both attractive and structurally sound.

Alufence Wood Grain finishes from Italy use printed patterns with texture and grain close to real timber, with aluminium durability — no rot or cracking — and a 10-year colour warranty. Ideal when you want the warmth of wood with long-term performance.

A security screen is mesh designed for high security: 0.9 mm stainless-steel 304 mesh in a reinforced aluminium frame. Ordinary insect mesh uses thinner aluminium wire and mainly keeps insects out. Alufence screens meet Australian standard AS5041-2003 for both insect and intrusion resistance.

Alufence security screens are built for intrusion resistance. 0.9 mm stainless 304 mesh is tested for impact, large-knife and metal-spear attack, and cutter cutting under AS5041-2003, making it far harder to pierce or cut than ordinary mesh.

Yes. Security screens provide intrusion resistance and also keep mosquitoes, insects and small crawlers out. Alufence stainless 304 mesh is fine enough to stop insects effectively while still allowing airflow.

Yes. Alufence security screens fit aluminium, timber and uPVC frames. Fixings are designed for a clean install without damaging existing frames. The crew surveys and recommends the right method for your doors and windows.

Stainless 304 screens are highly durable: they do not rust, sag or tear easily from pet scratching. Alufence warrants durability and quality, with after-sales support if issues arise after installation.

Stainless 304 mesh is finer and less visually heavy than typical insect mesh, so daytime views stay relatively clear while retaining some privacy. Alufence screens are designed to feel open and comfortable from inside.

Even on one storey, screens are useful because ground-floor openings are easier to reach. Alufence recommends fitting them on openings you want to ventilate — especially bedrooms, bathrooms and rear doors — so air can flow without compromising security.

For security-standard performance, installation should be done by a specialist who fixes the frame correctly. Alufence provides trained security-screen installers, with installation warranty and after-sales support.

Alufence screens use a US-made C-Groove multi-point lock that engages at several points at once, making forced entry far harder than a single-point lock and supporting household security.

Security screens suit any home that needs ventilation and security together — detached houses, townhomes, condominiums or commercial openings. Alufence offers multiple sizes and designs, with frame colours matched to existing doors and windows.
