Pool & Security Fencing

This is great example of combining security and the classic ornamental fencing look. This client has had a history of having the nearby neighbors “borrow” their pool after the apartment complex locks the gate at night. So while replacing their dated 4′ high steel fencing, that was far too easy to get over, security was the top priority. That is the primary reason we selected a 6′ high fence that has a spear topped picket and a large distance between the bottom and the middle rail, making this fencing style hard to climb. After a great deal of hunting I discovered this mechanical combination latch that requires a 4 digit pin number for both entry and exit. We also added the security keeper which keeps the gate from being pried away from the latch post and from being lifted far enough for the latch bolt to come put of the strike plate. And to go the extra step, we installed a hydraulic closer to guarantee the gate gets closed whether it’s opened an inch or to a maximum of 120 degrees.
