Pool Safely Pool Barrier Safety Information

A federal pool safety campaign that shares information about barriers, gates, supervision and layers of protection around pools and spas.

Pool Safely is a public education campaign from the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission. Its website shares information about the layers of protection around pools and spas, including barriers, gates, supervision and water safety skills. Owners in Nashville and nearby communities who are installing or upgrading a pool fence often read it to understand why self-closing, self-latching gates and climb-resistant fences are emphasized.

We are a private fence company and are not part of the commission. We build pool fences and gates with those safety ideas in mind, and we encourage you to read the official site and confirm local requirements with your city, county or insurer. A fence is one layer, and supervision, alarms and swimming lessons are others.
