Choosing the Best Fence for Your Pool

Pool enclosures are the law. Your township determines the requirements your fence must meet. However, that doesn't mean you have to select drab or industrial designs. In-ground pool fences give definition to your space and privacy while you swim as well as prevent accidents and create a deterrent from animals entering your yard for a sip or swim.

When selecting a pool fence, vinyl and aluminum fencing are great options as they are resistant to moisture and easy to clean. Mold and mildew can be cleared with a hose and a quick scrub - no fuss.

When picking a style, consider:

· Design and shape of Your Pool

· Style of Your Home

· Space available

· Proximity of neighbors and road view

If you plan to use this area for entertaining, make sure to create easy access points, preferably several. Depending on the space available, you may consider extending the fence to enclose a larger portion of your yard for entertaining spaces, outdoor kitchens and living areas.

With a road view or close neighbors, consider a more solid design, allowing you and your guests privacy in swim suits and towels.
