- •Fence surrounds entire pool creating isolated barrier from house and yard
- •No climbable elements within 3 feet of fence on either side
We stay current with all Palm Springs and California pool safety codes. Your fence will pass inspection the first time, guaranteed.
Best Pool Fence Materials
Not all fencing materials work well around pools. Moisture, chemicals, and temperature changes demand specific materials.
Aluminum Pool Fencing
Aluminum fencing is our most popular pool fence material. It never rusts, handles chlorine and salt water perfectly, and looks elegant around any pool design. The open picket style maintains visibility so you can always see what's happening in the pool. Powder-coated finishes in black, bronze, or white resist fading from sun exposure. Aluminum also works great on sloped areas where pool decks transition to landscaping.
Glass Pool Fencing
Frameless glass panels create an upscale, modern look while providing unobstructed views of your pool area. Tempered safety glass handles impacts and won't shatter into dangerous shards if broken. Glass fencing is easy to clean and completely immune to moisture damage. It's the premium choice for high-end properties where aesthetics are paramount.
Vinyl Pool Fencing
Vinyl fencing offers complete privacy around pools if that's what you prefer. It's maintenance-free, never needs painting, and resists pool chemicals. The solid panels block wind and provide privacy for swimming and sunbathing. Consider vinyl if you want to hide pool equipment or create a secluded backyard retreat.
Our Pool Fence Installation Process
Installing a compliant pool fence involves more than just putting up posts. Here's how we handle your project from start to finish.
We begin with a site visit to measure your pool area, check for obstacles, and discuss your style preferences. Then we pull the necessary permits from Palm Springs building department. Once approved, we schedule installation at your convenience. The actual installation typically takes one to two days depending on the fence length and material. We set all posts properly, install panels or pickets to exact specifications, and add code-compliant gates with self-closing hinges and safety latches. Before we leave, we verify everything meets code requirements. Finally, we coordinate the city inspection to get your official approval.
