Semi Frameless Glass Pool Fencing

This article looks at the specifications, installation and price of semi frameless glass pool fencing erected around swimming pools that complies with South Australian pool fence regulations.

Semi frameless glass pool fencing gives you a cheaper alternative to frameless glass pool fencing whilst still displaying a stylish look to complement your pool, water features and landscaped garden areas.

Specifications

South Australian swimming pool fence regulations specify any non boundary fence must be at least 1200mm high.

Visual Landscape Gardening are the only installers of semi frameless glass pool fencing that use the same 12mm thick toughened ‘Grade A’ safety glass as we do for our frameless glass pool fencing.

Semi frameless glass panels are available in sizes from 0.600mm to 1800mm wide and posts can be made of stainless steel, or aluminium that can be powder-coated to any Dulux colour of your choice.
There are different shapes and styles of posts available, manufactured from 316 marine grade stainless steel or 2205 duplex stainless steel if used within 10km of the sea, or within 2 metres of a salt or chlorine water swimming pool. Aluminium posts are made using alloy grade 6005A; a superior strength alloy which is stronger than the commonly used 6063 & 6060 grades, often used in structural engineering projects.

Installation

The installation of semi frameless glass panel pool fencing should only be done by licensed fencing contractors. At Visual Landscape Gardening we don’t take short cuts when installing semi frameless glass pool fencing, unlike many Adelaide fencing companies we have come across do.

All semi frameless glass fencing around pools is erected on a concrete footing 300mm deep and 400-500mm wide. If large format concrete pavers are used around the pool, the pavers above the footing are mortared for extra strength. This procedure ensures that there will be no movement, particularly when clay based soils expand and contract throughout the years.
Holes for the posts that hold the semi frameless glass panels are core drilled through the pavers into the concrete footing to provide the strongest fixing system possible.
