The away side offered little throughout the first half, but they could have found a way back into the match through Lee Elam and Anthony Danlyk, but Rayner in the Crawley goal was rather a spectator in this one-sided affair.
The home side extended their lead after half an hour through Jamie Cook, after Malcolm again sent in a teasing cross towards the back post and Cook stole a march on his marker to volley in from close range.
Alty’s problems went from bad to worse on the stroke of half-time as the impressive Pinault grabbed Crawley’s third with a thunderous shot arriving in the box after good work again by Cook.
A comfortable performance from the home side saw them grab their fourth of the match in the closing stages through Jon-Paul Pittman. The striker had been brought down inside the area in injury time and despite having the resulting penalty saved, he made amends seconds later as he powered home a header from an Isaiah Rankin cross.
