Independently Verified Performance for Specification
Every SLEEKFENCE performance metric is based on recognized testing standards and documented data — supporting confident specification of architectural aluminum fence systems across a range of project conditions.
Key Performance Metrics
(system dependent)
1000 hours tested
E84 Class A
rated STC 25
Built on Structural Integrity and
Durable Finishes
The Substrate
Aluminum Alloy 6063-T6
The structural foundation of every SLEEKFENCE system. Aluminum 6063-T6 is non-combustible, corrosion-resistant, and dimensionally stable — maintaining long-term performance without the degradation associated with wood or steel.
• Non-combustible material
• Corrosion-resistant
• Structurally stable under load
• Suitable across a wide range of environmental conditions
The Finish
Powder-Coated Architectural Finish
Applied electrostatically and cured under heat, the powder-coated finish forms a durable, uniform layer bonded directly to the aluminum surface.
It supports long-term performance by resisting:
• UV exposure and fading
• Moisture penetration
• Surface wear and chipping
• Salt exposure in coastal environments
Tested Performance Ratings
Each performance category is supported by recognized testing standards and documented data.
Wind Ratings
(Modular Fence Systems)
SLEEKFENCE systems are engineered as complete assemblies — including panels, posts, and mounting methods — and can be designed to meet project-specific wind load requirements.
Performance is influenced by:
• Fence height
• Panel type (privacy vs. semi-privacy)
• Post spacing
• Installation method
For projects in high-wind regions, coastal zones, or elevated conditions, system selection and engineering review are critical to ensure alignment with local code requirements and site-specific loads.
Salt Resistance
ISO 9227 Salt Spray Tested | 1000 Hours
SLEEKFENCE systems are evaluated under ISO 9227 salt spray testing to measure corrosion resistance in high-salinity environments.
After 1000 hours of exposure, testing demonstrated controlled corrosion propagation — including limited infiltration from a scored surface — providing a measurable indicator of long-term durability.
This is particularly relevant for:
• Coastal and waterfront developments
• Urban environments exposed to de-icing salts
• Projects requiring long-term visual and material stability
Fire Performance
ASTM E84 Class A | Non-combustible
Aluminum is inherently non-combustible and does not contribute to flame spread or smoke development. SLEEKFENCE systems are evaluated under ASTM E84 standards, supporting use in fire-prone regions and code-sensitive applications.
This supports specification in:
• Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) zones
• Multi-family and commercial developments
• Projects with fire code, insurance, or risk mitigation requirements
Material selection plays a critical role in limiting fire spread and reducing overall building envelope risk.
Acousitc Performance
STC 25
Solid panel configurations provide measurable reduction of airborne sound, helping reduce direct noise transmission in outdoor environments.
Performance depends on:
• Fence height
• Continuity (no gaps)
• Proximity to the noise source
• Overall site conditions
When configured as a continuous barrier, systems can reduce perceived sound intensity and improve usability and comfort of exterior spaces.
