Dual-Pattern Two-Section Vertical Slat Sliding Gate | Fabrication Drawings
Parametric vertical-slat sliding gate with a horizontal cross-rail dividing two slatted sections that each carry their own independent slat options. The lower section (between cross-rail and bottom rail) supports an independently-raked bottom rail; its slats taper to follow the rake. The upper section (between cross-rail and top rail) is always a true rectangle. Each section sets its own slat profile, distribution, spacing/count, and edge offset, so the two patterns need not align (e.g. dense privacy slats below, wide airy slats above). Supports an optional gate tail, L-piece top rail, and the standard sliding-gate accessory toggles.

Frequently Asked Questions
What opening widths does the Dual-Pattern Two-Section Vertical Slat Sliding Gate support?
The Dual-Pattern Two-Section Vertical Slat Sliding Gate accepts opening widths from 1,000 mm to 12,000 mm. Enter your exact site measurement and the engine recomputes all frame members, battens or slats, and dimension lines to match.
What do I get in the drawing pack?
Each drawing pack is an A4 PDF with orthographic views (front elevation, side elevation, top view, and isometric), full dimension lines, extension lines, and a professional title block. You also get a live 3D preview in the browser and optional STEP file export for CAD software.
Can I use this drawing for fabrication?
Yes. Dimensions are computed to sub-millimetre precision from a true 3D solid model, not approximated from a template. Print the PDF at actual size, hand it to your fabricator, and build from it. Change any input and the entire drawing regenerates in about 60 seconds.
How long does it take to generate a Dual-Pattern Two-Section Vertical Slat Sliding Gate drawing?
Around 60 seconds end-to-end. Geometry computation runs server-side in a CadQuery process with a 30-second per-request timeout; PDF rendering and download account for the rest. If you change a dimension, regeneration takes the same ~60 seconds — there is no manual redrafting step.
Can I save and reload my dimensions for the Dual-Pattern Two-Section Vertical Slat Sliding Gate?
Yes, on the Fabricator and Fleet tiers. Saved jobs store every input you entered and reload the configurator in one click, so you can revise a quote, regenerate a clean PDF, or branch a design for a similar customer without re-typing dimensions. The free Explorer tier doesn't persist jobs, but you can still copy your inputs out manually.
