A safer pool, a better look - without the hassle
Thinking about pool fencing in Hallam but not sure where to start? You need a fence that keeps kids safe, meets Victorian regulations, and still looks great with your landscaping. We design, fabricate, and install pool fences that do all three so you can relax and enjoy the backyard.

What Hallam homeowners really need from a pool fence
Safety & compliance: We handle the details—gate self-closing/latched, climbable zones, and required clearances—so your fence passes inspection.
Durability: Powder-coated aluminium or steel engineered for Melbourne weather.
Style: Options that flatter brick, render, decking, and modern landscaping.
Smooth delivery: One accountable team for measure, fabrication, and installation.
Key point: With Walnut, compliance isn’t your problem—it’s our process.
Pool fence styles we recommend (and why)
1) Flat-Top & Rod-Top (Aluminium or Steel)
Clean, timeless lines that suit most homes. Great airflow and visibility from the alfresco area to the pool.
Best if you want: a classic look, low maintenance, and strong value.
2) Spear-Top (Pressed Spear for High Security)
Architectural and assertive. Adds character while keeping the climb-resistance you need around pools and side returns.
Best if you want: a bolder, more traditional profile with added security presence.
3) Blade Fencing
Vertical blades deliver a premium, contemporary look with strong rigidity. Shadow lines add depth without feeling heavy.
Best if you want: a designer finish that complements modern façades.
4) Aluminium Slat (Privacy-friendly)
Horizontal slats with adjustable spacing. Perfect for screening equipment areas or creating privacy around entertainment zones adjacent to the pool.
Best if you want: privacy and a cohesive look across gates, screens, and boundary accents.

Quick comparison
Style | Look & Privacy | Care | Ideal Use |
Flat-Top / Rod-Top | Open, classic; low privacy | Very low | Most suburban pools |
Spear-Top | Heritage/statement; low privacy | Low | Feature front/side pool entries |
Blade | Contemporary; medium privacy | Low | Premium modern homes |
Aluminium Slat | Modern; medium–high privacy | Very low | Screens, equipment zones, side returns |
Design + compliance made simple
We map your site, identify climbable hazards, and recommend fence lines that avoid rework later. Our installers set posts and panels to spec, align self-closing gates, and ensure latch heights and clearances are right from day one. You’ll get a fence that’s:
Pool-safe by design (not “fixed at the end”)
Corrosion-resistant with quality powder-coat finishes
Consistent across panels, corners, and gates—no wobbles, no mismatched heights
Our Hallam process (end-to-end)
On-site measure & brief – We confirm your look, privacy needs, and any landscaping works underway.
Design recommendation – Profiles, colours, and gate positions that fit your space and inspection path.
Fabrication – Precision manufacturing for a snug, compliant fit—right here for pool fencing in Hallam and nearby suburbs like Dandenong, Narre Warren, Berwick, and Cranbourne.
Installation – Clean, coordinated scheduling with your tradies; we keep the site tidy and safe.
Final checks – Gate action, latch heights, gaps, and finishes—signed off before we leave.

Smart touches that lift the whole area
Matching gates: Sliding or swing access where it makes sense; pool-safe pedestrian gates at entries.
Colour harmony: Monument, Black, Surfmist or custom—chosen to tie in with your roof, joinery, or decking.
Integrated screens: Use aluminium slats for equipment or bin enclosures to keep the zone uncluttered.
Future automation-ready: We can plan power and conduit runs now for later gate automation.
