Barrier basics
The barrier must be a minimum height, have no gaps a child could pass through, and have no footholds that make it climbable. Exact figures are set by the code and local amendments.
Gates
Gates must be self-closing and self-latching, open outward away from the pool, and have the latch positioned out of a small child's reach.
Passing inspection
We build to current code, pull the permit, and meet the inspector — so your barrier passes the first time rather than failing on a technicality.
