Question: Can this be installed into a Wood Deck?

Answer: Yes, but some alterations to the decking must be made. The installation of each post requires a 4” deep hole to be drilled into the ground. The deck sleeve that is inserted into that hole MUST bottom out to meet proper installation and safety requirements. This means that if you wish to install your GLI IG Safety Fence into your wood decking, you must mount a 4x4 piece of wood underneath each area where a hole is being drilled to allow the sleeve to bottom out when it is placed into the hole. Make sure to use a drill bit that is meant for wood drilling! The suggested masonry drill bit is for concrete installation only.

Question: How far from the pool does the fence need to be installed?

Answer:

• Fence should be a minimum distance away from the pool edge to allow proper maintenance while fence is in use.


• The fence must isolate the pool area from all exits of the house.


• If safety fence is not being used as a total enclosure, and a tie-in to an existing structure is necessary, that structure must be strong, solid and high enough not to allow a child to get around, through or over the structure.


• Do not place fence adjacent to another structure that a child may climb upon. This includes raised seating and decorative boulders.
