What are pool fences made of?

Pool Fence Basics

Removable safety fencing has proven to be the most effective non-permanent barrier against pool drowning. A pool fence is generally made of polyester mesh mounted on aluminum or fiberglass support poles. The fence is placed into aluminum or polyester sleeves installed into your deck surface. A standard pool fence is removable in approximately fifteen-foot sections. Each section can easily be rolled up. It's a good idea, however to keep the fence up until children in the home are old enough not to require this safe guard any longer.
