What do I need to order?

Ordering a glass gate can be one of the most confusing steps when ordering your pool fencing. If you have a basic understanding of the hinges and latcheshinges and latches that are available, this will help you decide on the position and configuration of the gate(s).


One of the most important things to note about installing a glass gate is the gaps that you will need to allow for when using different hinges and latches. Both the gap between the hinge and latch sides will change depending on your configuration.


It is important when designing and installing a glass pool fence to remember that the gate must swing away from the pool. This is a requirement by law and your fence will not pass if it swings inwards.

What is required to install a glass pool fence gate?
