Need to Know
Find quick answers to common questions about our fence building process, customization options, permits, and materials.
Yes. According to the South Carolina Residential Code, any pool, spa, or hot tub capable of holding more than 24 inches of water must be surrounded by a compliant safety barrier. This includes in-ground, above-ground, and even some storable or inflatable pools. The barrier must be fully installed and pass inspection before the pool is filled.
We install ornamental aluminum and iron pool fencing, vinyl panels, wood barriers, composite fencing, and chainlink enclosures in heights and configurations that meet state and local pool safety codes, including double picket options for full compliance.
Pool fence installers verify the 48-inch minimum barrier height, ensure the 4-inch sphere rule is met for all gaps and spacing, confirm horizontal rails meet the 45-inch climb-proof standard, install self-closing and self-latching gates that swing outward, position latches at the required 54-inch height, and secure necessary permits before beginning construction.
A double picket or pool-spaced fence is an aluminum style where vertical bars are placed closer together, usually 1.75 inches apart. If you want a 4-foot tall fence, you almost always need the double picket style because the horizontal rails are too close together to allow wider gaps while meeting code requirements.
Yes, but with strict conditions. Any doors or windows leading from the house directly into the pool area must typically be equipped with an audible alarm sounding for 30 seconds or be self-closing and self-latching. In many cases, running the fence completely around the pool separate from the house is simpler and safer.
Gates are the most critical part of the safety barrier. In the Tri-County area, all pool gates must swing outward away from the pool area, close automatically from any open position, and self-latch when the gate closes. The latch release must be at least 54 inches above the ground.
