Our Pool Fences & Gates Are Engineered for Safety and Style
We want to make sure you get the right pool fence for your home. Every backyard is unique, and every family has different functional requirements and aesthetic preferences. That is why we proudly offer professional installation for the two most popular pool fences.
Removable Mesh Pool Fences Bring Modern, Flexible Safety
For homeowners seeking a barrier that meets safety standards with the option of easily removing the fence, our custom mesh pool fences are the perfect, innovative solution. Not only does this make it easy to remove when needed, but it doesn’t permanently alter the aesthetics of your yard.
Mesh fencing is constructed from an ultra-durable, UV-resistant industrial fabric that is tightly woven. This allows you to see through the fence from a few feet away but is also light enough to easily remove when necessary. The fabric practically disappears, preserving your clear, sweeping view of the water and your landscaping. Second, the smooth, tight weave prevents children and pets from finding any leverage to climb. There are no horizontal crossbars or rigid footholds for a child to scale.
Our Precision Mesh Installation Process:
Our professional installers bring exacting precision to your property. A mesh pool fence is only as strong as its installation, which is why we take every step seriously.
- Custom Perimeter Mapping: We walk your pool deck with you, strategically mapping out a perimeter that maximizes safety while preserving walkway space for lounging, maintenance, and entertaining.
- Core Drilling: Using specialized drills, we create precise, clean holes directly into your pool deck – whether it is poured concrete, decorative stone pavers, brick, or composite wood.
- Sleeve Insertion and Pole Mounting: We insert high-impact protective polymer sleeves into the drilled holes. The structural fence poles, which are permanently bonded to the mesh fabric, are then slotted tightly into these sleeves.
- Tensioning and Latching: The true strength of a mesh fence comes from its tension. We utilize the natural, structural tension of the fabric to pull the entire barrier perfectly taut. The sections are connected using heavy-duty, child-proof latches that require adult strength and dexterity to open.
- Gate Installation: We install a self-closing, self-latching, key-lockable gate that serves as the primary entry point, adhering strictly to all safety guidelines.
Easily Removable Mesh Pool Fence
Are you hosting an adults-only evening gathering or a major backyard event? We will train you on how to easily release the tension latches, lift the lightweight poles out of their sleeves, and completely roll up the pool fence for temporary storage. When the party is over, re-installing the fence takes only minutes.

Wrought Iron Pool Fences Bring Unmatched Permanence & Elegance
If your property demands maximum security combined with architectural permanence and undeniable elegance, our custom wrought iron pool fencing is the undisputed industry standard.
Our Rigorous Iron Pool Fence Installation Process:
Unlike tension-based mesh, wrought iron requires serious foundational construction. We handle every aspect of this heavy-duty installation with an experienced construction crew.
- Structural Assessment and Layout: We carefully design the layout to ensure the rigid panels navigate the specific curves and slopes of your landscaping smoothly.
- Foundational Digging: Our crew digs deep, structurally sound post holes along the finalized perimeter. This step is critical for ensuring the fence will not lean or shift over decades of use.
- Setting the Posts: We set heavy-duty, galvanized steel or iron posts plumb into the holes, anchoring them permanently with high-strength poured concrete. We allow the footing to fully cure before applying any weight to the system.
- Panel Attachment: Once the foundation is solid, our fabricators securely bolt or weld the premium iron panels into place, ensuring every connection is seamless and structurally sound.
- Gate Assembly: A massive iron barrier requires an equally robust gate. We install heavy-duty self-closing hinges and high-placed, self-latching magna-latches to ensure the gate closes behind you automatically, every single time.
- Weatherproofing: The constant humidity and splashing from a pool environment can be harsh on metal. We ensure the entire system is finished with a high-quality, rust-inhibiting powder coating. This baked-on finish is vastly superior to standard paint, resisting chipping, fading, and corrosion for years.

Why Get Professional Installation for Your Pool Fencing
Installing a life-saving pool fence involves significantly more than just purchasing materials and putting posts in the ground. When you hire our team, you are securing a partner with decades of experience who meticulously manages every critical detail of the project from conception to completion.
- Guaranteed Code Compliance: Pool safety regulations vary significantly by city and county. Navigating these legal requirements can be a headache for a homeowner. We ensure your new fence meets or exceeds all local building codes. We strictly adhere to mandatory minimum height requirements (60 inches in California), exact gate latch placements (at least 54 inches from the ground), and the strict maximum allowable spacing between vertical slats to prevent a child from slipping through.
- Custom Perimeter Planning: We do not just build a box around your water. We work closely with you to measure and plan a perimeter that provides maximum safety while preserving the usability of your space. We account for patio furniture placement, pool sweep operations, and safe foot traffic flow.
- Utility Verification: Digging deep post holes or core-drilling into complex deck structures carries inherent risks. Before we break ground, we coordinate directly with local utility companies. We ensure that our deep foundational digs never interfere with underground water pipes, gas lines, or electrical wiring, preventing disastrous accidents and costly property damage.
- Property Protection: We treat your backyard as if it were our own. Our crews utilize protective tarps, manage dust during the drilling process, and leave your pool deck immaculate once the final latch is tested.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How long does the installation process take?
For most pool fences, our efficient crew can typically complete the layout, drilling, and tensioning in a single day.
Will drilling damage my decorative pool deck?
Absolutely not. We use specialized, water-cooled diamond core drills specifically designed to cut cleanly through delicate materials like stamped concrete, travertine, and brick pavers. The process results in a perfectly smooth, circular hole without cracking or spider-webbing the surrounding deck.
Can I leave my mesh fence up year-round?
Yes. While the mesh system is designed to be removable, it is also engineered for permanent, year-round use. The materials are highly resistant to UV degradation, pool chemicals, and harsh weather conditions.
Are your gates completely self-operating?
Yes. Whether you choose mesh or iron, all of our primary access gates are equipped with premium self-closing hinges and magnetic self-latching mechanisms. If you walk through the gate and let go, it will swing shut and lock securely behind you without any additional effort.
Do I need to pull a permit for my pool fence?
No, a permit is not required for Placer or Sacramento County fencing installation.
