Top Materials Used For Swimming Pool Fencing Installations
Researching swimming pool fences and pool fencing options becomes mandatory if you have a swimming pool on your property. It is also essential to know the safety standards and regulations related to pool fencing installation. Without complying with these standards, laws and regulations, your swimming pool fencing will not get a ‘no objection certificate’, and as a result, you will have to get it redesigned and renovated multiple times until the laws are followed. Understanding these laws and standards is better to ensure that you face no problem during pool inspections done by the local councils.
What Are The Standards Of Swimming Pool Fencing Installations?
There are specific and set standards to consider regarding pool fencing in Australia. The most common rule is that the minimum height of any security pool fencing should be 1.2 m. This height is determined after researching that children cannot climb over this height if there are no supports present. In addition to the height, no vertical gaps between the fences should exceed 100 mm in width. The minimum recommended height for chain link pool fencing installations is 1.8 m, and the openings should not be more than 100 millimetres wide.
What Options Are Available In Terms Of Pool Fencing Installations?
No standards or specifications related to the material used in these security pool fencing are found in these law books. This means you can use any material discussed while adhering to the government standards.
Steel Pool Fencing
This is an intelligent option for several reasons: it is durable and budget-friendly and offers robust safety around the pool. You can get it custom-made and ensure that it adds more to your backyard’s beauty.
Aluminium Fencing
Another material used in pool fencing installations is aluminium, and it is often called aluminium slat fencing. It is cost-effective and durable, and with various colour options, it mimics the look of timber fencing closely.
The top advantage of aluminium pool fencing installations is that they are cheaper and available in various forms like tubular fencing, picket fencing and panel fencing. Other benefits of aluminium fencing are –
Resistant to rust and corrosion
Resistant to fire
Easy to install
Low maintenance
Glass Pool Fencing
This is the most popular old fencing option available in Australia and the most demanded one. It is very robust despite its fragile look, as the experts use 12 to 18-millimetre glass panels in these pool fencing installations. The options are endless in customisation, regardless of whether you opt for frameless pool fencing or semi-frameless pool fencing.

Comparing Aluminium and Glass Fencing Side By Side
Most homeowners find it really tough to choose the suitable swimming pool fencing for their poolside. The problem is that this installation is mandatory as per Australian laws, and getting it installed becomes a necessity for this reason and for kids' safety. Several options are there, but the most impressive is the glass fencing. However, it is getting tough competition from aluminium fencing that is entirely different from the former. Both have their strengths and weaknesses, and it becomes even more challenging for homeowners to make the right choice. We have come up with an article comparing these options on different factors to conclude the best option ultimately. Let us start this comparison beginning with the cost factor.
ALUMINIUM VERSUS GLASS FENCING IN SYDNEY
There is no doubt that glass fencing is more expensive compared to aluminium or other fencing types. It is available in two forms, namely – frameless and semi-frameless glass fencing. The semi-frameless version is somewhat within the budget of middle-class homeowners, but frameless glass fence panels are the most expensive. This version can cost around $275/meter, but the style and design are worth $275. On the other hand, aluminium pool fencing is an affordable option with a cost of $90 to $120/meter. It is a robust installation that can keep your poolside area completely safe even if you have budget-related restrictions.
DURABILITY FACTOR BETWEEN ALUMINIUM AND GLASS FENCING
Strength and durability are two primary considerations when choosing swimming pool fencing. People often doubt that glass fence panels are fragile and can easily crack. But this is not true, and in fact, glass fencing is impressive in terms of durability and strength. This is mainly due to the powder-coated aluminium frames that hold 12-millimetres wide toughened glass fence panels very strongly. The best feature of glass fence panels is that when the glass cracks, it changes into tiny, weightless pieces rather than heavy, huge, broken pieces that can injure anyone.
On the other hand, aluminium is lightweight but an extraordinarily durable and long-lasting material. Since this material is powder-coated, you will find it utterly immune from weather conditions and issues like rusting, coating, etc.
AESTHETICS AND OVERALL LOOKS
Undoubtedly, glass fencing in Sydney is unbeatable in terms of aesthetics and overall looks. Frameless glass fencing, in particular, adds sophistication to the overall looks of the poolside, and it also offers uninterrupted views of the area and makes it look more open and spacious. If you want your pool fencing to be a design element, glass fencing in Sydney is the best.
Aluminium fencing also provides a classic appearance and complements any landscape very quickly. The only issue is the aluminium vertical tubes that can become a barrier or even block the views of the swimming poolside area. The good thing is that aluminium pool fencing is powder coated as per your choice to match your poolside area.
MAINTENANCE-RELATED ISSUES
Both these versions require regular maintenance and cleaning. But glass fencing is easier to clean than other pool fences, as you must wipe the glass panels with a clean cloth and the standard dishwashing agent. The only drawback is that cleaning will be needed frequently to prevent dirt, dust and debris build-up.
How often should you clean glass fencing in Sydney?
This mainly depends on the swimming pool traffic, environmental conditions and how much attention you pay to the cleaning process. Aluminium swimming pool fencing is virtually maintenance-free and ideal for people who don't want to waste time in cleaning. They are available in powder-coated aluminium pipes and are completely rust and fade-resistant. You will also not require too frequent cleaning with aluminium fencing.
HOW SAFE THESE FENCES ARE FOR KIDS
Glass fencing in Sydney is considered the best, particularly the frameless glass fencing, as there are no support systems available that kids can use to climb up the slippery glass panels. The only way to access the swimming pool is the glass gate that has features like self-latching and self-closing. These glass gates are extremely strong and made to match the strength, qualities and features of glass fencing in Sydney.
Kids' safety is always a significant concern with aluminium pool fencing due to design. Vertical circular bars can be used as potential footholds that kids can use to climb up and access risky areas.

Wow, this is 1931 home in Winnetka, Wisconsin is impressive. 9bds, 9ba, $8.9M.
Wow, look at the carved wood walls. There's an original tile floor in the foyer, too, and a leaded glass inner door.
You know, I like the white carpet on the stairs. I wouldn't want to clean it, but it looks beautiful. This home has those bas relief ceilings, too.
Is it the way they're photographing the room to get the ceiling in, or are the ceilings low? The large sitting room has wood paneled walls to match the entrance hall, plus the same ceiling and a beautiful fireplace.
Very classy guest powder room. Black marble floor with white veining, and the marble counter on top of an antique dresser has a sink ringed in gold. The gold wallpaper ties it all in.
Comfy home office. The rounded desk looks art deco and is nestled perfectly in a triad of framed windows.
The library shelving is gorgeous. Oblong octagonal cutouts in carved shelves, and that gorgeous fireplace in the middle has a pediment with a pineapple and a black & white marble surround.
I like this light dining room. Cream and pale blue bas relief ceiling is so soft and stunning.
These cheery bright dining spaces are so pleasing. This is a breakfast room in creamy white and it gets a lot of sun from the windows to the garden.
The kitchen is a professional chef's kitchen. It begins with a large pantry done in the same cream color with large glass paned doors on the cabinets so you can see the dishware. The kitchen cabinetry looks maple and has a cute corner fireplace, black countertops and copper pots hanging over the double island.
At the top of the stairs on the 2nd level is a magnificent oval leaded glass skylight. The glass panes are opalescent. And, there's a large sitting room up here, too.
They've made a walkway between 2 area rugs in the huge primary bedroom. On one side is a lovely mahogany canopy bed that contrasts well against the white room and the other side is a sitting room.
There is a huge home office up hear with a pretty French Provincial desk and a chaise lounge.
The bath is nice, there's a separate room for the toilet, and a lovely vintage marble counter on the sink. Love the rust-colored marble on the floor.
What a lovely guest room. It's so large, there's a huge picture window between 2 full-sized canopy beds.
Down in the large basement is a rec room that looks like the ultimate man cave. Rich dark wood furniture, a red pool table with an unusual pool lamp- it's not the usual stained glass, this fixture has foxes in red waistcoats holding up electric candles - love that.
Wow, man cave indeed. That fireplace is the size of a room. You can definitely walk in there. And, look at the life-sized butler statue in the corner. Is he creepy?
The home gym looks commercial. Mirrored walls and a black ceiling make it look industrial.
Outside, the iron gate makes it look like a secret garden.
The hedges are cut in patterns.
It must cost a fortune to maintain these gardens. The property is 3.25 acres.
Is it me, or does the pool look like a fidget spinner.
I love conservatories and this one is lovely. The plants and wicker furniture really bring the outdoors in.
This is the prettiest tennis court with the trees and latticed fencing.
An elaborate play set for the children looks like it conveys.
