Product Description
Catalyst Montauk Board-on-Board Vinyl Gate — 6' Tall x 4' & 5' Wide, White
- Matching Montauk shadowbox style — Built in the same board-on-board, semi-private shadowbox pattern as Montauk fence panels for a seamless system look.
- Two gate widths — Available in 6' tall x 4' nominal width (46" actual) and 6' tall x 5' nominal width (58" actual) for walk and wider access gates.
- Board-on-board construction — Uses 1/2" x 6" boards in a staggered, alternating layout on both sides of the rails for a true vinyl shadowbox gate.
- 2" x 6" rail design — Heavy 2" x 6" rails (top and bottom) match the Montauk panel frame for consistent lines and long-term rigidity.
- Semi-private airflow and screening — The shadowbox pattern softens sightlines while still allowing light and breezes to pass through the gate opening.
- Smooth white vinyl finish — Supplied in smooth White to coordinate with Montauk board-on-board fence panels and posts.
- Hardware sold separately — Gate posts, reinforcement inserts, and all hardware — including hinges and latches — are sold separately so you can choose components that meet your needs and local codes.
The Catalyst Montauk Board-on-Board Vinyl Gate is the dedicated gate for the Montauk semi-private shadowbox fence system. Built using the same 2" x 6" rails and 1/2" x 6" board-on-board pickets as the Montauk 6' x 8' panels, this gate delivers a consistent shadowbox appearance at your access points. Choose the 6' x 4' gate (about 46" actual leaf width) for standard walkways or the 6' x 5' gate (about 58" actual) where you need extra clearance or want to pair two leaves as a double gate. The semi-private, neighbor-friendly design looks finished on both sides while balancing privacy with airflow. Gates are provided in smooth White vinyl, and posts, caps, inserts, hinges, and latches are all sold separately.
Why Choose This
- Perfect match for Montauk panels — Uses the same board-on-board configuration as the Montauk shadowbox fence panel, so the gate blends visually into the run.
- Neighbor-friendly shadowbox design — Alternating boards on both sides of the rails present a finished look to you and your neighbors.
- Flexible access options — Two standard widths make it easy to configure walk gates, garden gates, and wider service or equipment openings.
- White semi-private vinyl gate — Clean white vinyl coordinates with Montauk panels, posts, and gates while resisting rot, peeling, and flaking.
- Consistent 2" x 6" rail frame — Heavy 2" x 6" rails match the panel frame design for strength and straight, level rail lines.
- Custom hardware choices — Because hinges and latches are sold separately, you can pick hardware that fits your specific security, pool, or driveway requirements.

Installation
Install the Montauk Board-on-Board Vinyl Gate between 5" x 5" vinyl gate posts set in concrete. Use appropriate burial depth based on local frost lines and soil conditions, and reinforce hinge posts with compatible post inserts where required. Align the 2" x 6" gate rails with the rails in the adjacent Montauk board-on-board panels so the shadowbox boards line up from panel to gate. Mount heavy-duty, vinyl-compatible hinges and a latch rated for the gate width and intended use (yard entry, pool area, or drive), ensuring smooth operation and secure closure. Hardware, including hinges and latches, is not included with the gate and must be purchased separately.
Buying Guide
- Pick the right width — Use the 4' gate (about 46" actual) for standard walkways and narrow side yards; step up to the 5' gate (about 58" actual) for mower or equipment access or when pairing two leaves for a double gate.
- Match your Montauk panels — This gate is designed to pair with Montauk 6' x 8' board-on-board shadowbox fence panels for a unified look.
- Choose compatible posts — Plan on 5" x 5" x 108" gate posts from the Hudson/Montauk system, with inserts at the hinge side for added strength.
- Order hardware with the gate — Hinges and latches are sold separately; select hardware that is rated for vinyl gates and meets any pool or safety codes in your area.
- Plan single vs. double gates — Decide whether you need a single walk gate or a pair of gates for a wider double opening before you set posts and pour concrete.
