Pool Fence FAQs

We will be able to provide you with an estimate of how much fencing is needed, leveraging modern technology like Google Earth, which will allow us to provide you with a virtual estimate.

Our pool fences come in different heights. The suggested height for a safety fence is 4 feet (48 inches) and the space between it and ground should be less than 2″. We offer three different types: 48″ (4 feet), 54″ (41/2 feet), & 60″ (5 feet) tall.

We stopped using fiberglass poles, our poles are now made of 6063-T6 aircraft grade aluminum. Pool poles made from fiberglass are poorly suited for pool fences, which operate on tension. When the fence sways due to the fiberglass’ flexibility, cracks and splinters begin to form, which can eventually tear the pole apart. Fiberglass pool poles are also more difficult to install than other types of pool poles, and they are not as strong or durable as other materials like 6063-T6 aircraft grade aluminum.

Yes! Your family is important. You need to protect them with the best safety features available! Our company is proud of its extensive line-up that includes self-closing and self-latching pool gates, which have been recommended by many authorities on pool fences including The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) as well as other organizations such National Drowning Prevention Alliance(NDPA).

The ideal surface is a concrete pool deck, but we can also safely install a pool fence into almost any surface, including sand-set pavers, grass/dirt, and turf.

Yes, the fence needs to anchor into the ground at each pole in order to serve as a quality barrier.

It is very rare for us to hit buried lines. We try to be mindful of the location of drain lines and surface level water features around the pool when laying out the fence before installation. In the event that we do damage any buried utilities, we will take care of the repairs.

We can tie into existing barriers by attaching an eye for the safety latch on the side of your fence or house. However, if you are using your house or boundary fence as part of your barrier, be conscious of potential openings such as windows or gates. We will help craft a safe, practical, cost-effective plan for you when we speak.

We provide free, no risk written estimates for the project once we have a preliminary length for the fence. We can often provide a virtual estimate or an in person estimate to make the process as easy on you as possible.
