Mesh

Polyester mesh fabric with a mildew resistant polyvinyl coating to provide for years of use in direct sunlight.

Continuous basket weave with a tensile strength rating of 270 lbs. per inch making it impossible to rip under normal use.

Color selection is black, beige, white or grey.

Bordered on all four sides by a reinforced vinyl material with a rating of 387 lbs. to prevent sagging and provide the necessary tension to insure the fence's integrity for its intended purpose both at the top and bottom. All border is triple stitched with Aqualon marine thread to allow for years of abuse from direct sunlight and the elements.

The finished mesh is securely mounted on aluminum poles and reinforced with aluminum cove molding strips attached to each pole.

Poles are constructed of aluminum, either black powder coated or silver mill finish. All poles are fiber core reinforced at critical stress points. QUAD-X     core aluminum poles are available in our premium line of fencing.

Pole spacing is optional at either 30 or 36 inches.

Stainless steel screws (14) are utilized for securely attaching the aluminum cove molding to the poles and mesh.

Surface of the poles are finished for handling and to prevent injuries from physical contact.

The poles are capped to provide a neat finished appearance.

Standard sections supplied are 15 feet to provide for easy removal and storage by the homeowner. A standard section weighs only 12 lbs. Short sections are available down to 5 feet in length for 30" pole spacing models and 6 feet for the 36" spacing models.

A quality Life Saver Pool FenceBe an Educated Consumer

Since not all requirements are the same, we have developed the option system to let you customize your new fence to meet your specific needs. Life Saver provides you with over 50 different styles of fence to choose from.

Our standard product is Black Safety Mesh, 4 feet (48 inches) high, utilizing reinforced standard aluminum support poles. This model fence is manufactured with an industry standard of 30 inches between support poles. It is our standard and most popular model of fence. The 30 inch support pole spacing not only adds to the safety and strength of the fence, but also provides more control for fence turns and free form type installations. The 4 foot height is used as the standard for US Consumer Product Safety Commission recommendations for pool safety fencing. It is also the height required by most states and counties that have passed laws requiring pool isolation barriers for child safety.

Support pole spacing on a straight run of fencing (such as between two walls) is of relatively little importance. Both the 30 and 36 inch models will provide almost the same strength and safety factors for all heights of fence. It is suggested on open free form pool installations that 36 inch pole spacing be restricted to the 3 1/2 foot (42 inch) high fence models; 4 foot high and up models should be selected with the 30 inch support pole spacing.

QUAD-X core aluminum poles are  stronger than standard fiber reinforced aluminum poles and should always be considered over over standard aluminum where pole breakage or abuse is highly likely.

Options for different mesh colors, black powder coated aluminum poles, alternative border trims, etc. are all intended to accommodate individual tastes or preferences in the pool fence’s appearance.
