Why Choose Glass Pool Fencing?

The leading factor for selecting glass swimming pool fencing is that it looks so trendy and sleek. Some property owners with children avoid it, thinking that due to the fact that it is glass, it is easily breakable. That’s not the case, however. Made from tempered glass, it is really difficult to break. Tempered glass can be found in 8, 10 and 12 mm thickness, and many providers and installers advise 12 mm thick glass for swimming pool fencing to prevent virtually any possibility of damage. Glass pool fencing is one of the best products you can utilize for swimming pool surrounds due to the fact that kids can’t climb over the slippery glass, it does not deteriorate in the sun and it´s very easy to clean.

Glass Pool Fencing Installation Costs:

Some fencing providers offer DIY glass swimming pool fencing sets, so if you’re fairly experienced and follow all instructions to the letter, you can conserve some cash by installing your own fence.

Nevertheless, do not eliminate getting quotes from glass fence installers. Since there is so little hardware required and experienced installers can have the fence installed quickly and effectively, the installation cost is normally cheaper than you think.

Here are some crucial questions you should ask when comparing costs for your new glass swimming pool fence:

  • What thickness of glass that I am being quoted for?
  • Does the fencing adhere to all South African requirements for swimming pool fencing? It must be a minimum of 1200 mm high, and gates should swing outwards and be self-latching.
  • Is whatever consisted of in the quote (panels, hardware, gates, hinges, and so on)?
  • Is the installer insured so you don´t receive any civil claims when someone gets hurt on your property?
  • Does the fencing have a service warranty?
  • Does the installer ensure their quality of work?

Independent fencing installers can charge as low as R400 per hour of labour, but it’s most likely much better to get quotes for supply and installation. If they supply the product they can not blame any defect on the materials. If you are still unsure if a glass pool fence will be within your budget get your quote today.
