Pool Fencing Certification

Our fencing products have been manufactured to exceed Australian Standard 1926.1 – 2012, Swimming Pool Safety, Part 1: Fencing for Swimming Pools. Certification of the manufactured panels is provided in writing with every order.

A glazing certificate is provided with each order.

Our semi frameless and frameless glass pool fencing systems have been engineered by a NATA certified organisation, a copy of the engineering certification is provided with each order.

Your fence will require further certification following installation. This is generally arranged by your pool builder and is often done by a private certifier.

Before you start installation bring yourself up to date with pool fence laws.
