Life Saver Pool Fence DIY by Fencing Section Kit, 4 x 12-Feet, Black

J'avais des doutes concernant la qualité et le fait de savoir si il résisterait à nos hivers canadien. Toujours aussi beau et ils sont resté droit même après 3 ans d'utilisation. Facile d'installation !! Je recommande.

This pool fence is awesome and installs quite quickly easily with some planning, following the directions, and using the right tools. I installed 45 feet of this in about 2.5 hours. I did a ton of research and read lots of reviews. As far as their drill guide goes...the general concensus from many reviews is it's overpriced garbage you'll never use again and it may not even give you good results so I decided to make my own for about $10. I purchased at Lowe's a 1/2" x 4.5" iron pipe threaded nipple and a 1/2" iron pipe floor flange. Thread the 2 pieces together and screw down in the center of a piece of wood. I used a scrap piece of some 1" by ? lumber I had laying around that I cut down to approx 4" x 13". I drilled a 3/4" hole of out the center of the wood first. The necessary 5/8 masonry bit fit nice and snug inside the pipe...so much so that the head of the drill bit will not fit through. You must slide the drill bit up through the bottom of the guide before attaching the bit to the drill. I used a Bauer rotary hammer drill I got at Harbor Freight and a Bosch 5/8" x 12" (yes 12" is plenty long enough with my homemade drill guide) SDS Plus masonry bit I picked up at Home Depot and it worked great. As far as the whole light lean, heavy lean issue goes, I simply used a wood shim between my patio and the bottom of the guide. Slide it closer to the drill bit...heavy lean; further away from the bit...light lean. Line up the tip of the bit with the mark you made for the hole, step on each side of the piece of wood to hold the guide in place and drill til you bottom out the drill on the top of the guide. Piece of cake. Hope my review helps you decide to get this fence and save some serious money and get great results by building your own guide like I did.

Pretty good fence. We have a lot of kids in the neighborhood that like to just jump in our pool when we're away, which we wouldn't care about if they couldn't sue us if something went wrong. So we bought this. Pros: -Easyish set up. IT didn't take us too long to understand the instructions and put it in ourselves. We do a lot of our own homework though so if you're not used to installing your own items and using a bit of hardware it might be harder for you. -Good way to keep kids out oif you don't know them. -Easy to remove and reinstall if you want to open up the pool for a party or gathering. Cons: -I live in Hawaii where everything rusts incredibly quickly. The fence itself hasn't rusted but the hook that you drill into the wall as a connection rusted in about 2 weeks. So one tiny piece is the only problems we've found. We also bought the gate that goes with this fence and also works beautifully and love the way it locks. Very simple and effective. One Year Update: Still very sturdy. It hasn't rusted which is a huge plus for Hawaii air and is used and moved quite often. Overall this was a perfect purchase for our needs. I highly recommend it.

While we experienced a two week delay in delivery we were happy to receive the fence. We have an above ground pool with a 8 foot opening. The instructions were very clear and the installation, on a wooden deck, were quite simple. I had to cut the fence since it was too long but that too was easy to do. Hopefully this greatly improves pool safety for all.

I love the way my pool fence came out. Everything fit into place perfectly and the fence is sturdy and taut. My child will not be able to get through. I have seen some negative reviews about the fence sturdiness or the drill guide being ineffective, but I can only assume these folks didn’t properly follow instructions. The drill guide is an absolute must have for this install. Don’t try to make your own or go freehand. You need to be able to drill holes with the proper light or heavy lean in order for the fence posts to come out correctly. Follow the instructions provided, they are well written and vital. People complained about the drill guide wing nuts coming loose during use, but you can tighten the wing nuts with an Allen wrench, and I had no problems with them coming loose. I had to drill 46 holes and it lasted. You won’t be able to use the guide for much else afterward, but you need it for this job imo. Get a high powered hammer drill (with extra batteries if going cordless) and good quality drill bits. You’ll need multiple bits if drilling lots of holes (maybe a new bit every 10 holes) into concrete/rebar. I drilled through flagstone/concrete/rebar. Dribble water onto the hole as you’re drilling to avoid stone from splitting. I also chose to skip the gate as you can just open one of the panels and stick it into a layback hole for when the pool is in use, so I can’t speak to the gate quality or ease of installation. I’m happy with no gate though. Overall, if you can follow instructions and have the strength to drill the holes, then you can do this job and I would recommend this pool fence and drill guide.
