Pool Fencing Sunshine Coast
Keeping Your Pool Safe
Pool fences are a legal requirement in the state of Queensland and greatly affect not only the safety of your backyard, but its overall look and feel too. We provide both aluminium and glass pool fencing solutions for a wide range of yards and pools, and are able to customise our product to remain within your budget.
Our team has been installing pool fencing on the Sunshine Coast for over 15 years, providing safe and efficient solutions for a wide range of customers. Keep your pool protected and your backyard safe with one of our glass pool fencing solutions.
Having a pool in your garden can be great fun. Whether you need a relaxing dip on a hot summer’s day or you’ve invited your friends round for a pool party, it can be one of the best features of your home. However, it’s always important to make sure that your pool fencing is in good shape.
The alternative is people unexpectedly falling into your pool, which could lead to significant injury and even drowning. This can all be easily avoided with strong and effective pool fencing in your home.
Pool Fence Regulations in Queensland
If you want to make a pool fence here in Queensland, you’ll have to follow the necessary regulations.
At most, you’re allowed a 100mm gap from floor to fence, and the top of the fence has to be at least 1200mm off the ground. You must also keep the gaps in your rails at a reasonable distance to prevent people from squeezing through. If your fence is less than 1800mm tall, climbable objects have to be kept at least 900mm away from the swimming pool barrier.
You can find out more about the specific details of the regulations by looking at the Pool Fence Regulations in Queensland, as breaching these regulations could lead to significant costs.

Types of Pool Fencing
At Frameless Shower Installations, we offer a number of pool fencing options to residents on the Sunshine Coast. Each of the options has its individual benefits, including:
Frameless Glass Pool Fencing
Consisting primarily of glass panels, frameless pool fences keep your pool area secure without having to sacrifice the look of your outdoor space. For anyone looking to make the most of their garden’s outlook, a frameless pool fence would be ideal.
Framed Glass Pool Fencing
Framed glass pool fencing, or semi-frameless glass pool fencing, is a more modular system, providing a greater level of security whilst helping to preserve the overall finish of your pool area. Another significant advantage is the visible support, meaning that you’re far less likely to have any issues with guests walking into your pool fence and hurting themselves.
Aluminium Pool Fencing
Usually considered to be less pleasing on the eye, aluminium pool fencing is simple, clean and easy to install. Constructed from rust-free, long-lasting aluminium that is strong yet light, aluminium bars help to keep all pool users safe. Unlike glass, it’s impossible not to miss aluminium fencing.
Toughened For Long-Lasting Effectiveness
Pool fences are often damaged over time by a range of things, such as:
- Weather
- Mowers
- Flying rocks & debris
This further emphasises the need for all pool fences, whether aluminium or glass, to be made for durability and long-lasting effectiveness. All of our pool fences on the Sunshine Coast are made with toughened materials and are proven to stand the test of time by providing a consistent level of safety and aesthetic appeal to any backyard.
