What is the minimum height for a glass pool fence in NSW?

The minimum height is 1200 mm. Our standard panels are 1170 mm and spigots raise them by about 60 mm, so the installed height exceeds 1200 mm.

What gaps are allowed between pool fence panels?

Gaps must not exceed 100 mm. For best appearance and safety, installers typically use 30–60 mm between panels.

Which way should a pool gate open and what hardware is required?

Pool gates must open outwards, away from the pool. Hinges must be self-closing and latches must be self-latching to meet safety regulations.

Are your glass panels and hardware compliant?

Yes. Our glass panels are certified to AS/NZS 2208:1996 and our spigots/hardware comply with AS1926.1-2012.
