Glass Pool Fence Gates and Accessories
Select Your Accessories
It's now time to choose your gate panels, hinge panels, latches and hinges.
Glass Gate Panels
All gate are 8mm thick x 1200mm high toughened glass. Each gate is 1200mm high. Using our pre-drilled hinge panels and hinges will ensure the gate aligns at the top and bottom with all other panels. Each gate has been pre-drilled with 6 x 10mm holes to attach the latch and hinges to.
Glass Gate Hinge Panels
A hinge panel is required when you are installing a glass gate that will be hinged (swinging) off another glass panel. The hinge panel requires 4 x 14mm holes pre-drilled to attach the hinge to.
Glass Gate Latches and Hinges
You will need to use 1 latch and 1 hinge set for each gate you are installing in your pool fence. It is important that you select the correct hinge for your pool fence layout.
What do I need to order?
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?
When broken down, there are 4 items that you will need to order:
- 1 x Gate Panel
- 1 x Hinge Panel (only needed if hinging from glass to glass)
- 1 x Latch
- 1 x Hinge Set
Note that you will need pre-drilled glass panels to install a gate. Glass can not be drilled after it has been toughened.
