Step-by-step guide for pool fencing plan
Creating a safe and visually appealing pool fencing plan requires careful thought and precise execution. In this guide, we’ll walk you through designing a fencing plan that meets safety regulations and enhances your pool area’s beauty. Let’s get started!
Define the area where your pool fence will go
House position: Determine the best starting point for your pool fencing, ensuring easy access and a seamless connection to your pool area.
-
Concrete and decking: Mark the edges of any concrete or decking surrounding the pool to visualize the fence’s alignment.
-
Existing structures: Note nearby walls or buildings that could affect the fence’s design and positioning.
-
Boundary fences: Consider how your pool fence will connect and align with existing boundary fences.
-
Trees and garden beds: Identify large trees or garden beds that might affect the fence layout, designing around them while maintaining their aesthetic.
-
Obstacles: Be aware of objects obstructing the fence’s path, such as utility poles or outdoor furniture.
Take precise measurements for your pool fencing plan
Use a measuring tape to determine distances between the starting point (e.g., the house) and end points (e.g., boundary fences or gates) of the fence line.
-
Measure where the fence will be placed, approximately 100mm in from the edge of the concrete or decking.
-
Double-check all measurements to avoid errors that could compromise the fence’s functionality and appearance.
Then, calculate panel sizes by dividing the fence line into equal-sized panels, considering gaps and gates in your design.
-
Calculate the total length of the fence line, then divide it by the desired panel size.
-
Adjust the number of panels to maintain uniformity and accommodate any gates required for pool access.
-
Factor in gaps between panels to enhance the overall aesthetics of the fence.
By following these steps, you can design a pool fence that not only meets safety requirements but also enhances the beauty of your pool area.
