“Where should I put my pool gate?” 🤔
This is one of the most common questions we get asked when designing a glass pool fence.
If you’re working with limited space inside your pool area, a 90° corner outswing gate can be a fantastic option. By positioning the gate on the corner and having it swing outwards, you create a natural entry point into the pool area without sacrificing valuable walking space inside the fence line.
If a 90° corner outswing gate isn’t suitable for your pool area, another option we often recommend is positioning the gate so that the remaining fence length can be divided into even glass panels. To do this, we take the overall fence length, subtract the width of the gate, and then divide the remaining length across the panels as evenly as possible. This can create a clean, balanced look and often results in a more visually appealing finished product.
Of course, every pool area is different, and while even panels are something we always aim for where possible, site conditions and compliance requirements don’t always make it achievable on every project.
Every pool area is unique, but understanding the available gate options can make a huge difference to both the functionality and overall appearance of your glass pool fence.
