When it comes to installing a Langson Glass pool fence on your property, there is a range of benefits. These include:
Surprisingly, several of the materials used for pool fencing aren't resistant to water damage. A timber fence, for example, will rot remarkably quickly if not regularly resurfaced. Many metals rust and may also be damaged by chlorine from the pool in the longer term. Glass is impervious to the effects of rain and is also immune to chlorine damage. If you live by the coast, you'll be pleased to know that glass is also resistant to the corrosive effects of salt water and air.
Daily and seasonal temperature changes can wreak havoc on some types of fencing material. Fortunately, glass isn't one of them. Glass contracts minimally in cooler weather and similarly expands very little when the temperature rises. Its relatively static state helps it stay strong, preventing the freeze/thaw action and gradually weakening repeated heating and cooling can cause.
The durable nature of glass means that once it's installed, it requires virtually no maintenance. Its smooth surface makes it difficult for biological debris, such as lichen or moss, to thrive. Glass doesn't flake or discolour with sunlight, ensuring it can withstand many years of hot summers without ill effects. Once your new glass pool fencing is in place, little maintenance is needed beyond an occasional clean-down with warm water and detergent.
It's vital that the area around the pool is as clean as it can be. That’s why glass is a perfect material for your pool fence: it’s naturally resistant to bacterial growth and easy to clean. And, if you need to apply a harsher detergent around the pool area, glass can cope with bleach or similar with no ill effects.
It's rare these days to find anything that will last a lifetime, but in all probability, your glass pool fencing is one of those items! Glass is extremely strong and durable. We use glass that's been toughened, and you can choose from several different thicknesses. Even the thinner glass will last for decades; the thicker options will, in most cases, last a lot longer than the pool!
Other benefits of our pool fencing include unobstructed views of your pool, an enhanced look of your backyard, easy cleaning and maintenance…the list goes on! To request a glass pool fence quote, get in touch with our friendly team today. We can also offer matching
frameless glass balustrades for your balcony or interior staircase.
Glass pool fencing is extremely strong and is unlikely to break unless subjected to considerable force. All glass used for pool fencing is toughened and available in a range of thicknesses from 8mm up to 12mm thick. This makes glass pool fencing a safe choice for your family.
Yes, similarly to traditional gate and pool fencing systems the glass gate is attached to self-closing hinges to ensure that it cannot be left open accidentally.
Glass pool fencing is most commonly installed into concrete as well as tilers and pavers, but it can also be installed directly into timber decking.
The two most common forms of glass fencing include frameless and semi-frameless forms. Semi-frameless fencing involves glass panels held in place via posts, while frameless glass pool fencing is supported by clamps, creating the appearance of a continuous glass surrounding.
When it comes to glass pool fencing in NSW, it's important that it has the necessary thickness to withstand sudden impacts, as well as exposure to the elements like UV rays and storms. Glass pool fencing comes in a range of thicknesses between 6mm-18mm. The necessary thickness will depend on whether it's frameless or not. If your pool fencing is frameless then it needs to be at least 12mm thick. For semi-frameless glass pool fencing, the glass panels should be at least 10mm thick.
