Fence Extensions for Pool Privacy
Summer means more time around the pool, and for many Australian backyards, privacy is an important part of creating a comfortable outdoor space.
If your pool area sits alongside an existing boundary fence, fence extensions can provide additional height and screening, helping create greater privacy without replacing the existing fence.
Creating more privacy around your pool
Neighbouring properties, overlooking windows and adjoining outdoor areas can all affect privacy around a backyard pool.
Adding fence extensions to a suitable existing fence can increase its overall height and provide additional screening between your pool area and neighbouring properties.
Screenline fence extensions are available in a range of heights, colours and designs, allowing you to choose the level of screening that suits your backyard.
Choosing the right fence extension for your pool area
The right solution will depend on your existing fence and the amount of privacy you want to create.
More open designs can provide additional height while retaining greater visibility and airflow, while privacy-focused designs provide increased screening.
Screenline fence extensions are manufactured for Australian outdoor conditions and can be colour matched to complement your existing fence and outdoor area.
DIY fence extensions for existing fences
For suitable existing fences, Screenline's DIY fence extension kits provide the components required to increase fence height without replacing the entire boundary fence.
Kits are available for Colorbond and timber fences, with installation guides and video tutorials available to help with installation.
What about pool fence requirements?
Pool barrier requirements vary across Australia and may also depend on your property and local requirements. If an existing boundary fence forms part of your pool barrier, changes to that fence need to be considered carefully.
Before installing fence extensions around a pool area, check the requirements that apply to your property and seek appropriate advice where required.
