| This Marsfield job 1st needed a new sheet steel privacy fence to hide a non-compliant timber paling fence. I had to lift some deck boards to allow digging new post holes through the structure ... | then we installed an array of different height alum slat panels on stepped side fence (concrete besser-block) to raise its effective height to >1.8m & installed in a way to not create a climb-down issue for compliance ... | the clients now have more privacy & an attractive pool area that is low maintenance. Refer to their testimonial to see how I relieved their stress dealing with the council order. | This Arcadia job was a combination glass (by First Class Glass) & alum pool fence (by us). The magic views from home across pool to valleys beyond were framed by the Monument coloured alum pool fence. |

| Partnered with my First Class Glass glazier mates on combination glass/alum project ... | where I installed aluminium pool fence & gate at end of pool ... | also a large alum slat privacy panel at end of patio. 2nd stage work was to install 3 gates in same alum slat panels to utility rooms under the patio. | We replaced a very rotten timber slat balustrade on two townhouse upstairs patios in Pennant Hills ... |

 |
| In Galston we raised the side boundary fence (that was too low) by adding a layer of palings to their pool side, | ... then replaced a rusted steel filter box (that was climbable) | ... with a tall Western Red Cedar cladded filter shed (custom made kit order). | ... we installed Jasper (colour) tubular aluminium vertical slat balustrades ... |

 |
| We reduced the size of pool area at this Westleigh home, with a combination monument colour tubular aluminium & frameless glass pool fence. | ... I also installed a sheet steel filter-box. | This pool fence in Ryde was climbable from a concrete block garden wall outside it - so I extended posts then installed a black alum frame above it & clad it with a clear polycarbonate shield. This is the least noticeable option for a tubular pool fence height extension. |
... fixed to large section aluminium posts fixed to their timber patio posts & beams. No more painting or timber maintenance! |

 |
| In this North Epping project we replaced both side boundary fence (lapped & capped timber paling) ... |
& internal pool fence (charcoal tubular aluminium) |
... & neighbours side gate. | This gate & fence are intended to keep a young child away from the dangers of the backyard. |

| Like the Berowra job below, this St-Ives pool filter box on boundary fence could be climbed down onto, so we built a pergola over it after we raised the fence to compliant height. | My Berowra client needed dual gates to cover a very large span - so I installed these tall aluminium slat gates hung off large section steel posts (all powder-coated Woodland Grey) | ... I also replaced an old heavy timber gate nearby | This near new paling boundary fence in Turramurra was not high enough due to a sleeper installed along base - so I raised the fence with a slat & installed a new rear tubular alum pool fence to isolate problems with rear boundary fence & filter box |
 |

 |
| This rusted & under-height steel fence in St-Ives was supporting a vigorous growing vine very close to the pool ... | so our team removed the vine & pool fence, then installed a new tubular alum fence to match other existing pool fence | we had some tricky rocks to navigate ... | then cut through a garden area to isolate the boundary fence that had many compliance issues. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| As stage 2 job (see 4 rows below) I installed a matching white alum slat gate to rear of carport. | Every section of this Wahroonga pool barrier was non-compliant, so we replaced the side boundary with capped butted paling fence, ... | then installed a charcoal alum pool fence to isolate much of the other yard & house areas. | The pool filter box at base of staircase was a tricky challenge to solve but a tall raked tubular panel & clear polycarbonate shield worked well for our happy client (see Andronicus testimonial) |

 |
| This side boundary fence was not high enough & had climbable (non-compliant) lattice at top ... | so we removed the lattice panels (over 25m) then installed 2 slats of sawn treated pine to follow slope of fence & ensure no more than 10mm gaps | This old brushwood fence was deemed non-compliant by council. As it bordered the driveway the client was stressed, | ... so I replaced it with a butted timber paling fence after confirming with council their requirements for this site. |

 |
| This Mt Colah home had a very large pool area with a non-compliant pool fence ... | So the owner Di & I re-designed the area to reduce by isolating problematic boundary fence & inner fence issues - I even re-used 3 curved panels to save her $$$. | This Terry Hills job was challenging with every raked panel a different angle - but we got it right to follow the contours & ensure gaps under were compliant. | My fence is behind the pool area in this beautiful home - obviously hard to see amongst the garden. |

 |
| These deck mounted pool fence posts failed the strength test, so we reinforced them with short black steel posts concreted in ground next to deck & fitted flat bar stays in between ... | ... now a very solid & safe pool deck (without need to rip-out & replace the fence & deck). Outcome was a very happy client! | Here in Normanhurst our team did combination of glass & aluminium pool fence. I also raised the side fence with a treated timber slat. | This Roseville rumpus room sliding door led out to the pool area, so we installed a tubular pool fence & gate alcove. Now the kids in street cannot go through garage & rumpus to the pool area. |

| This was an extra tall paling fence with paling heights tapering from 2.4m to 2.0m due to ground slope under coping. | This was an interesting shield design to stop climbing along outside edge of deck boards & onto the pool fence. | These white aluminium slat screens on a Westleigh carport really transformed both inside ... | and outside perspectives. The beauty of powder-coated alum, is no painting upon install or future as with timber slats! |

 |
| This was an interesting job to design & build a chunky picket fence as side boundary in Killara ... | The clients brief was "I want something different to the usual sawn paling fence - but want to keep the rabbits out". | The sleeper retaining wall was capped for a neat finish & to keep those rabbits out. | This Killara rental property had badly rusted steel posts & gate - so we completely replaced the pool fence with black aluminium. |

| We had a massive pool area to install black tubular aluminium fence & gates, all sloped & angles, to replace non-compliant ARC steel wire fencing. | We also installed charcoal aluminium slat screens along 15m side fence ... | to effectively raise the height to over 1.8m of a timber paling fence that sloped from 1.8m down to only 1m. | You'll find the client Sue's testimonial on the relevant web page - in short she is very happy! |

 |
| The pool in this backyard in Wahroonga takes prominence where owners never had to isolate it - until now with the plan to sell ... | so I had to get creative about where to run the internal fencing ... | as well as replaced an old ARC side boundary fence with new timber fence. | The owners are very happy with the outlook & have less to worry about when grand-children visit. |

 |
| These Turramurra clients bought a home with no pool fence & they had a toddler & new baby born day of move-in | ... so we urgently installed this charcoal aluminium pool-fence to give them peace of mind ! |
This West Pennant Hills glass fence was non-compliant with large gaps underneath & next to post - so I fixed clear polycarbonate shields which are hard to see but strong ! |
This Wahroonga steel pool fence was non-compliant with gaps just 5mm over standard - so I fixed aluminium angles to inside posts which are hard to see but strong - the gaps now comply ! |

 |
| This Carlingford pool fence made from Oxworks black tubular aluminium was a large & tricky job ! | we had to fully enclose the pool - it was sloped at either end ... | & 2 sides were curved ... | plus had to deal with step-ups to ensure No Climb Zone & gap rules were not breached. |

| This was a challenging job to replace a rusted sheet steel filter box with a "The Filter Box Company" flat-pack DIY product ... | that was big enough to fit the equipment but not too high to be within the 900mm No Climb Zone arc drawn from top of nearby side boundary fence + outside the 500mm wide exclusion zone below. | Compliance was a key requirement along with a neat result. I collaborated with Tongarra Pools who supplied the box & did filter equipment upgrade during the project. | After cutting out a trench in pavers & setting treated timber plinth flush with pavers (to keep height down) - I filled the base with blue metal. |

| This new pool in Hornsby (by Crystal Pools) was part of a complete backyard renovation ... |
and WOW what a marvelous transformation heh! |
We installed charcoal tubular aluminium fencing & 2 gates & a custom raked retaining wall panel. | I also gave advice prior to guide landscapers about setbacks for the sandstone retaining wall outside pool fence for compliance. |
 |

|
| This back path picket gate needed to be robust to keep large dogs in. | The raked in-fill panel needed to follow contour of the retained garden. | Flange mounted pool ladder | |

 |
| I custom built 18 Merbau timber posts for the new tubular aluminium pool fence ... | ... to blend the new pool area with clients lovely Merbau house deck that overlooks the pool. (stay tuned for updated photos once it is all oiled) | My own pool filter system is now enclosed in treated pine sleeper slats. It is extremely quiet, obviously protected from weather, & front panel easily removes to allow access to equipment. | Even my own boundary fence needed replacing - we opted for galvanized steel posts for longer life. |
 |

 |
 |
| I enclosed this front yard with Oxworks Cooktown tubular panels & gates ... | we thought the Charcoal looked a bit classier & more subtle than Black ... | these raked panels & gate up the driveway worked out perfect ... | the clients loved the result especially their dog & young child who have new freedom! |
 |

 |
| This filter box inside pool area was deemed climbable from top of old fence, so I designed this pergola ... | then replaced side fence to compliant 1.8m height ... | then built the pergola higher to negate a childs ability to climb down! | This new grab rail allows my aging client with bad knees to keep on swimming to keep him young! |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| This 1.2m high fence had to be raised to 1.8m on 2 boundary lines, so extended the black steel posts ... | then lifted the tubular panels 600mm ... | then filled gaps under with big treated pine slats ... | ... the result looks great & now complies! |
