Swimming Pool Fences in Canada

It is extremely important to install a fence around your swimming pool. Keeping unsupervised children away from the water is a top priority for backyard pool owners. In Canada, a pool fence is required to be at least 4 feet in height and built such that children cannot easily climb over them. It is recommended that you have a self closing gate for your pool safety fence, to ensure there is no possibility it can be accidentally left open when leaving the pool deck area.

A pool fence can be installed permanently or temporarily. Depending on the type of pool you have and layout of your backyard, you may wish to leave your pool fencing up all year round. We carry visually appealing pool fences for inground pools, with clear sight lines that don’t hinder the view in your backyard oasis. At the end of the season, you can simply leave it as an added layer of pool safety. If you prefer, you can remove the posts and roll the fencing up for winter storage. While there is very little added cost to a pool fence, we do carry replacement sleeve and sleeve caps as well as self closing gates. Measure your backyard pool space and consider the gate should be located near the shallow end. We can help you figure out how many fence panels you require and help you find the right tools to install it yourself.
