However, with the pleasures of a pool also comes significant responsibilities, particularly when it comes to safety. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most crucial safety measures is pool fencing. Fences are governed by stringent regulations in Australia, and are designed to prevent accidents and save lives.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In this post, we&#8217;ll dive into the legal requirements for pool fencing in Australia, providing homeowners with essential knowledge to ensure their compliance with the law.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The importance of compliance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before we discuss the specifics, it&#8217;s worth noting why adhering to these regulations is so vital. According to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.royallifesaving.com.au\/research-and-policy\/drowning-research\/national-drowning-reports#:~:text=We%20are%20saddened%20to%20share,the%20age%20of%2045%20years\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Royal Life Saving Society<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, drowning is one of the leading causes of accidental death in young children in Australia. Proper pool fencing significantly reduces these tragic incidents by restricting unsupervised access to the pool area.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nationwide standards<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Australia&#8217;s pool fencing requirements are outlined in the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vba.vic.gov.au\/__data\/assets\/pdf_file\/0008\/135728\/Building-SP-02-Swimming-pool-barriers-and-other-requirements-CURRENT-26-Sep-2023.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AS1926.1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Safety Barriers for Swimming Pools. While these standards provide a framework, individual states and territories may have additional or differing regulations. Generally, the law mandates that all swimming pools must have a barrier that meets the following conditions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Height and Strength<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fence must be at least 1.2 metres high and must be strong enough to withstand force, preventing children from climbing over or breaking through it. A great way to ensure this is with aluminium pool fencing, as it is stronger and more sturdy than other options.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gaps and Openings<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The gaps between the ground and the bottom of the fence, as well as between the vertical bars, should not exceed 100mm, so small children cannot crawl under or through the fence.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Self-closing and self-latching gates\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gates must swing outward from the pool area and automatically close and latch from any position.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Non-climbable zone<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A 900mm non-climbable zone (NCZ) should be established around the outside of the pool fence, free from any objects or structures that a child could use to climb over the fence.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clear area around the fence\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A clear area of at least 300mm should be maintained on the inside of the fence, ensuring that children can&#8217;t use overhanging branches or other protrusions to climb into the pool area.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">State and Territory variations<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the national standards provide the basis for pool fencing laws, specific requirements can vary. For example:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In New South Wales, pool fencing must be inspected and a certificate of compliance obtained before selling or leasing a property with a pool.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Victoria has a mandatory register of swimming pools and spas, and new regulations as of 2020 require owners to have their pool barriers inspected and to lodge a compliance certificate.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queensland requires that all swimming pools are compliant with the current standards, regardless of when they were built, and includes mandatory pool safety inspections.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pool owners need to check with their local council or government authority to ensure they are aware, of and compliant with, the specific laws in their area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2330\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/understanding-the-legal-requirements-for-pool-fencing-in-your-area\/pool\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"640,480\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Pool\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool-300x225.jpeg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool.jpeg\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2330 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool-600x450.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool-500x375.jpeg 500w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/480;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2330\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/understanding-the-legal-requirements-for-pool-fencing-in-your-area\/pool\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"640,480\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Pool\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool-300x225.jpeg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool.jpeg\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2330\" src=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool-600x450.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/toughguard.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Pool-500x375.jpeg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regular maintenance and inspections<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pool owners should regularly check and maintain their fences and gates. Weather, wear and tear, and ground movement can all affect the integrity of a pool barrier. In some states, such as Queensland, it&#8217;s a legal requirement to have your pool fence inspected by a licensed inspector at certain intervals.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Penalties for non-compliance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Failing to comply with pool fencing regulations can result in significant penalties, including hefty fines. More importantly, non-compliance increases the risk of drowning incidents. The legal consequences serve as a reminder of the critical nature of these safety measures.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensure your pool is safe this summer with aluminium pool fencing<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Opting for aluminium pool fencing is a great option and provides a safety feature that is mandated by law across Australia.
