Start Planning For Your New In-Ground Pool and Aluminum Fence

Spring is right around the corner and with this time of year comes an increase in in-ground swimming pool installations.  Having a pool installed in your backyard is quite exciting.  Memories will be made in your backyard oasis for many summers to come.  To ensure that these memories are all positive ones it is important to plan for certain safety measures to be in place; aluminum perimeter fencing enclosing the swimming pool area may just be one of the most important.  The fence should never be a last minute add on to the addition of an in-ground swimming pool.  Consider all safety measures as you begin to plan and budget for an in-ground swimming pool.

The placement of your new pool within the backyard space available is crucial.  A pool should be installed to enhance the ambiance of the backyard as a whole.  As you are considering where the pool should be installed it is important to also stake out the placement of the aluminum gate and fencing as well.  The great benefit when installing aluminum pool fencing is that it offers an unobstructed view of the pool area while meeting B.O.C.A. standards required in pool fencing.  This means that you can still enjoy the three hundred sixty degree views of your landscape while enjoying the pool and keeping an eye on the little occupants enjoying the water.

When the landscape surrounding an in-ground pool is hilly or even slightly inclined many homeowners worry that the fencing that is installed will have a gap that will allow young children and small animals to access the pool without proper supervision.  This is not a concern when ordering aluminum fencing.  Aluminum fencing can be ordered in sections of various sizes and offer rackable fencing panels.  This allows the fence to adjust to the slope of the land surrounding the pool instead of having to be stair stepped.  Another feature that can be added to aluminum fence used around pool is puppy pickets.  This feature adds additional pickets at the bottom of the aluminum fencing to prevent any possibility of maneuvering underneath the fencing.

With aluminum pool fencing a secure aluminum gate is a given.  Aluminum gates are self-closing and self latching both which are required.  The fence will need to be installed so that it opens out and away from the pool with an opening mechanism that is at least fifty four inches above the ground.  Not only are there regulations that must be met for the gate but also for the aluminum fencing itself.  The aluminum fence that is installed must be at least forty eight inches in height with a mid rail of at least forty five inches above the bottom rail while pickets should be spaces no further apart then four inches and the space between the bottom rail and ground has to be less than four inches.
