Pool Fencing Liverpool

All pools and spas in Liverpool must be registered on the NSW Swimming Pool Register and have compliant pool fencing that meets Australian Standard AS1926.1-2012. The fence must be at least 1200mm high, have no climbable objects within 900mm, and self-closing/self-latching gates with the latch on the inside (pool side) at least 1500mm from ground. Non-compliance can result in fines up to a competitive price.

Aluminium tubular pool fencing is typically the most affordable compliant pool fencing option in Liverpool, costing a quoted rate per metre installed. Semi-frameless glass is mid-range at a competitive rate, and frameless glass is the premium option at a competitive rate. All options are AS1926.1 compliant when professionally installed and certified.

Pool fencing installation is exempt development under NSW regulations, so you don't need a DA from Liverpool City Council. However, all new pools and spas must be registered on the NSW Swimming Pool Register, and pool fencing must pass a council inspection (or accredited certifier inspection) before the pool can be used. We arrange the certification inspection as part of our service.

After we install your pool fence in Liverpool, you can arrange an inspection through Liverpool City Council's swimming pool inspection program or use an accredited private certifier. Council charges a competitive price for the inspection. If it passes, you receive a certificate of compliance. We pre-check all our installations against AS1926.1 before handing over, so inspections generally pass first time.

Yes. We assess existing pool fencing in Liverpool to identify non-compliance issues — common problems are self-closing gate mechanisms that have failed, latches that no longer function correctly, gaps in the fence that have opened, or fencing that has subsided below the required height. Many pool fences can be repaired to compliance rather than fully replaced, which saves significant cost.
