A pool on your yard is supposed to add value and make your home more attractive. Unfortunately, open pools are considered one of the biggest causes of deaths and accidents in homes. The cases of pet and children drowning in pools when left at home alone have been on increase resulting in many homeowners installing fences around their pools. Unfortunately, installing traditional fences around the pool hides the pool from visitors preventing it from playing its aesthetic role. Luckily for homeowners who would not like to hide their beautiful pool, the solution lies in installing pool fence around the perimeter of the pool.
Installing glass pool fencing is not only attractive but it is also highly practical. The modern glass fencing designs have simple sleek edges that make the fence easy on the eyes compared to wooden and tubular fencing. Furthermore, installing a glass fence will make your yard look bigger as it offers a look that does not feel closed while also offering all the security benefits of closed fences. In addition to keeping pets and children away from the pool, the glass fence also helps you monitor children while in the pool without sitting beside the pool due to the visibility offered by glass material.
The transparent nature of glass can easily blend with any sort of furnishings and décor allowing the yard to complement the rest of your property. The glass used on the fence is also specially treated and toughened, which means that you can have peace of mind knowing that the glass will not break under little pressure or impact. The fence will also act as a windbreaker and does not require oiling and painting. The glass fences also come in different types with the main types being frameless and framed fences. The framed fences refer to glass fences that are held in place by metal or wood railing while the frameless is not held by any railing.
It is also important to note that a myriad of designs and installation methods exist resulting in varying glass pool fence Adelaide cost but frameless are usually more expensive. The frameless fences are ideal when you do not want the view of the pool to be blocked. The frameless are installed using spigots, which are bolted to the surface or fixed into slots, which creates a lovely effect of the glass emerging from under the ground. The panes can also be fixed with bolts to maintain strength and balance.
Conclusion
To get the best out of your glass pool fence, it is necessary to involve a qualified pool fence expert from the start. Involving the expert will help you choose the most appropriate type of glass fence for your pool.
