Regulations exist in every state that govern pool safety. The goal of these regulations is primarily to protect children from accessing the pool. Accidental drownings is a rather common cause of death in the 2 to 5 year old age group, so it's only prudent to protect them by requiring fences to meet a number of criteria to be compliant. The rules are going to vary by jurisdiction, but they typically include:

-Fencing must meet minimum height requirements, often 1.2 meters as the standard in many states.
-Gaps between the ground and the bottom of the fence must conform to regulation, usually about 10 centimeters.
-Fencing must be kept in good repair so that it can act as a dependable barrier to restrict access.
-The fence must be located at least 1.2 meters from other objects, so children can use them to climb over the fence.
-The gate is generally required to be self closing.

Glass pool fencing is designed to withstand harsh environments and exposure to chemicals that may be present in pool water. They are especially suitable for coastal locations. Glass has become a very popular choice for homeowners due to their aesthetic appeal, and because they give the illusion of more space in crowded urban environments.
