Pool Fence Installations in Delaware

If you have a swimming pool and small children living in your home, a pool safety fence is a must-have. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has reported that approximately one in five people who die from drowning are children 14 and younger. As parents, pool safety should be a top priority. Best Defense Pool Enclosures only offers the strongest child pool safety fence in the industry, the Life Saver Pool Fence.

The state of Delaware is home to 967,171 residents. While the state has specific pool fence requirements for public pools, there are no statewide laws for private pool fencing. Despite the lack of state laws pertaining to pool fencing individual municipalities may have their own set of laws, so it is important to ensure you are following your city’s laws with your residential pool.

Generally, these individual city laws require that homeowners who own a swimming pool are required to install a barrier that is at least 48 inches high and must not have any openings larger enough for the passage of a 4-inch sphere to pass through.

The pool fence must also be equipped with a self-closing, self-latching gate that opens outward away from the pool. The pool gate must remain locked when the pool is not in use.

In addition to a lack of a pool safety barrier, there are many risk factors for drowning when it comes to a residential pool, some of these risk factors are:

  • A lack of or insufficient supervision – Children must always be closely supervised when near water to ensure their safety. Supervision will always be one of the most important layers of protection you can implement in your home.
  • A lack of pool or door alarms. These alarms can alert you if your child exits the home unsupervised or if there is a disturbance in the water. 
  • Mental impairment due to drugs or alcohol – Both of these can affect a person’s ability to recognize and respond appropriately in the event of a dangerous situation.
  • Age – both young children and the elderly have a higher risk of falling into a pool and drowning should they fall in. 
  • Health issues – Drowning is the most common cause of unintentional injury death for those with seizure disorders. Additionally, older children or adults with autism, down syndrome or similar issues, are also at a higher risk for drowning.
  • Lack of water safety skills – Learning how to swim is an important step toward avoiding a water injury, as well as knowing life-saving water safety survival skills.

five star rating“LIFE SAVER!! I had to get a fence installed fast in an unusual space in order to meet a township C of O certification.  Vince explained the details to me, was able to respond very quickly and come out and do the install professionally and at a fair price.  Inspector came out the same evening and the house passed.   Vince is a man of his word!   I highly recommend his company.” – Larry C

five star rating“I had a mesh pool cover installed and was very satisfied with both the product and service. Arrived on time, speedy installation, and a quality product.  Vince also took the time to explain the proper steps to maintain, remove, and install the cover myself if needed. I highly recommend Best Defense Pool especially for pool covers.” – Jorge C
