Building a pool barrier

From pool walk to inspection

1

Walk the pool

Matt looks at the pool, the house doors and the yard, and asks which city or township you are in.
2

Quote against the code

Height, spacing and the gate are priced against your local rules.
3

Build the barrier

Posts set to hold a gate that swings shut every time, panels hung to the 2-inch bottom gap.
4

Test the latch

We open the gate wide and let go. It has to close and latch by itself, and we tell you what your inspector will check.

FAQ

Pool fence questions

White horizontal fence beside a swimming pool

The Residential Code of Ohio, Appendix G, as cited by Violet Township, Ohio, sets the top of the barrier at least 48 inches above grade. Your city may set its own rules, so confirm with your building department.

Yes. Appendix G gates open outward and are self-closing with a self-latching device, and the City of Elyria’s code puts the latch on the inside. See our self-latching gate options.

Sometimes. It has to meet the height, bottom gap and opening rules, and its gates have to close and latch by themselves. Send Matt a photo and he will tell you what it needs. See fence repair if the fence needs work first.

Often, for the pool and sometimes for the fence. Rules differ by city and township. Ask Matt which applies to your address.

Aluminum is open, so you can see the pool from the house, and it does not rust. Vinyl is solid and private. Compare our aluminum and vinyl pages. More answers: Fence installation FAQ.

Matt was awesome and was able to install a beautiful fence and finished the day we moved in! They provided quality work and kept me informed along the way. Now my 3 pups have a safe place to roam. I highly recommend this company. Thanks again Matt!

5 stars are not enough. On time for the estimate and the install. Matt was very friendly and professional. And the result was amazing! He explained everything, showed me what he was looking at on the estimate and never left me hanging whenever I texted him. Highly recommend these guys when you need work done. It's nice to know there are still people out there that take pride in their work!

Great job putting up our fence in this extreme heat. It took a while to do it because of the weather but the wait was worth it. Thank you Matt
