Pool Fence Fort Lauderdale - Top-Rated Safety, Style & Durability

ASTM Pool Fence Installation Fort Lauderdale – Our Process

Step 1: Free Estimate, Layout Planning, Measuring & Surface Preparation

Our experts conduct a free consultation, take precise measurements, and design a custom fence layout that meets safety standards. Once finalized, we prepare the surface, whether concrete, grass, pavers, or dirt to ensure a stable and secure installation.

Step 2: Pool Fence Installation

For concrete surfaces, we use precision core drilling, while dirt or gravel areas are secured with aluminum sleeves and quick-set concrete for maximum durability. Our expert installers will work with you on the layout design for your pool area. We will align, secure, and install the panels, adjusting the tension for seamless integration and structural integrity.

Step 3: Pool Gate Installation

Florida mandates that every pool fence include a self-closing and self-latching safety gate. Pool Guard exclusively uses the Magna Latch Top Pull Pool & Child Safety Magnetic Gate Latch and Lock — the industry’s gold standard in gate hardware. This premium latch system provides:

• Automatic self-closing mechanism
• Magnetic lock technology
• Robust child-safety features
• Seamless, secure access control
• Prevents unauthorized entry, especially by young children

Our exclusive gate hardware meets and exceeds Florida State safety regulations, giving you peace of mind with every pool entry point. The precision-engineered design ensures maximum safety without compromising convenience.

Fort Lauderdale Pool Fence Laws & Requirements

Florida law requires all new residential pools built after October 1, 2000, to include at least one approved safety feature. In Fort Lauderdale, compliance with the Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act (Chapter 515, Florida Statutes) and the Florida Building Code is mandatory before final inspection. Our Pool Guard™ fences in Fort Lauderdale meet these requirements, including:

• Pool barriers at least 4 feet high, designed to prevent climbing and eliminate wide gaps
• Self-closing, self-latching gates that swing outward and include child-resistant locking mechanisms
• Window and door alarms with a minimum 85 dB sound rating for all pool-accessible openings
• Secure safety pool covers – canvas covers alone are not compliant
• Above-ground pools must feature removable or lockable ladders or meet barrier standards
• Barriers must be far enough from the pool edge to prevent immediate water access if breached

Local Enforcement

• City of Fort Lauderdale: The Development Services Department requires a Pool Barrier Affidavit as part of the permitting process for new pool construction. This affidavit confirms that the pool barrier meets all state and local safety requirements.
• Broward County: The Board of Rules and Appeals (BORA) oversees compliance with pool safety regulations and provides resources to educate homeowners about pool safety measures.
  

Penalties for Non-Compliance

Failure to comply with these safety requirements may result in a second-degree misdemeanor, punishable by fines up to $500 and/or up to 60 days in jail. However, no penalty shall be imposed if the person, within 45 days after arrest or issuance of a summons or a notice to appear, has equipped the pool with at least one safety feature as required and has attended a drowning prevention education program.

Fort Lauderdale strictly enforces these standards to reduce drowning risks. Non-compliance can result in second-degree misdemeanor charges unless corrected within 45 days and paired with a drowning prevention course.
