Great Tips to Help You Choose the Best Pool Fencing for You
Are you among the 2.7 million Australians who own a swimming pool? If so, you're aware that pool ownership involves both initial installation costs and ongoing maintenance. One crucial aspect of maintaining a pool is the pool fence, which is a legal requirement across all Australian states. Pool fencing regulations can vary, encompassing both national and local guidelines.
With a plethora of pool fencing options, from aluminium panels to innovative composite solutions, how do you select the best one for your needs? Here are three essential considerations:
Prioritise Pool Safety
Above all, your pool fence should prioritise safety, where pool accidents are a significant concern.
The primary purpose of a pool fence is to keep children safe by preventing unauthorised access to the pool area and reducing the risk of accidents. Here are some key safety considerations:
- Height and Gates: In most states, pool fencing must be a minimum of 1200 mm tall, with gates that are self-closing and self-latching.
- Material Strength: The fencing must be constructed from materials that cannot be easily breached or climbed by a child.
- Gap Size: Ensure that there are no gaps in the fence design that a child could squeeze through, including gaps at the bottom.
To stay informed about safety regulations, consult your installer and local council or visit the Swimming Pool & Spa Association Australia (SPASA) for guidelines on safety barriers for swimming pools.
Set a Budget for Durability
While safety is paramount, pool fencing is a significant investment. Therefore, it's essential to choose a durable option that will stand the test of time. Regardless of the material you choose, your pool fence must be sturdy and meet Australian Standards. Popular materials for pool fencing include:
- Glass: Glass fencing, available in frameless and semi-frameless options, provides an unobstructed view and a modern aesthetic. However, it can be costly, and the quality of glass panels can vary, so consider the warranty and maintenance requirements.
- Wrought Iron: This option offers intricate designs and longevity but demands consistent maintenance to prevent rust and corrosion.
- Aluminium: Ideal for coastal areas due to its rust-resistant properties, aluminum requires minimal maintenance but is not as strong as wrought iron.
- Timber: While natural and beautiful, timber fences require continuous upkeep, including sanding, sealing, painting, and protection against pests like white ants.
Your choice should align with your budget and willingness to commit to maintenance.
What is the best type of fence for a pool?
Decide on Your Fencing Type
Selecting the right pool fencing type depends on your specific requirements. Here are some popular options to consider:
- Glass Pool Fencing: Offers visibility and a spacious feel.
- Wrought Iron Fencing: Provides an elegant and long-lasting option but requires a little maintenance.
- Aluminium Pool Fencing: Resistant to rust and low maintenance, suitable for coastal areas.
- Timber Pool Fencing: Natural and aesthetically pleasing but demands ongoing re painting.
Your choice should reflect your individual preferences and priorities.
For residents in North Shore Sydney, Chatswood, Lindfield, Wahroonga, finding the best pool fencing that suits your needs is essential. Whether you prioritise safety, aesthetics, or durability, understanding these factors will help you make an informed decision when choosing the ideal pool fencing for your property.

Our modern tubular pool fences come in a variety of different colours and styles which can add a bit of colour and flair to your pool area. Our glass panel pool fences are also becoming more popular, with their minimalist looks which ooze style and allow the eye to be drawn to the sparkling pool itself, rather than the fence surrounding it.
All pool fencing included Frameless and Semi Frameless in Glass and Aluminium. All these are custom designed for you.
Did you know NSW has very strict pool fencing regulations? Most pools constructed after 1990 must be fenced (with a few exceptions) and ALL pools including inflatable pools built after 2010 now require a fence separating the pool from the residence. There are regulations attached to pool gates also. Pool gates must open outwards and have self-closing and self-latching features, for example. As of 29 April 2016, not only must pools be fenced, all properties which are leased or sold in NSW must have a certificate of compliance or a certificate of occupation and a certificate of registration. If you are buying, selling or leasing a property and your pool fence or pool gate does not meet the regulations in order to obtain a certificate of compliance, give our pool fencing contractors a call. We can supply, install or repair your pool fence in order to help you obtain a certificate of compliance.

Hired these guys on behalf of my elderly mother and they certainly know there trade. I wasn't there when they fixed my mothers broken gate, but the response from her made me call them myself. They've increased the property's value with a new entry gate and the fence repair looks incredible. Thanks again.

Absolute professional outfit, we had no issues whatsoever with their work, they got to our place on time, had our gate fitted up within a few hours, tidied up after themselves, nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended.
