Slat Fencing
Slat fencing is a modern fencing style that uses horizontal or vertical slats (most commonly aluminium) to create a sleek, semi-private screen that suits contemporary Australian homes, especially in sunny climates like Perth.
What is slat fencing?
Slat fencing is made from evenly spaced boards or “slats” fixed between posts or masonry piers to form a boundary, screen or gate.
It provides the prefect low maintenance durable fence for your home.
Key benefits
Modern look that complements contemporary architecture and elevates street appeal.
Good privacy with the option to tighten slat spacing where you want more screening, such as along neighbour boundaries or around courtyards.
Improved airflow and light compared with solid fences, helping outdoor areas feel cooler and less boxed in during hot summers.
Low maintenance when using aluminium or composite, as these do not need painting or oiling and resist rust, rot, warping and splitting.
Can increase perceived property value by combining privacy, security and a clean architectural finish.
Frameless Glass Pool Fencing
High quality frameless pool fencing
Frameless glass pool fencing has become one of Australia’s choices for homeowners who want to combine safety with a clean, luxurious aesthetic. Unlike traditional tubular or metal fencing, frameless glass uses 12mm toughened safety glass to create a strong, compliant barrier that protects children and pets while keeping the view completely open. This style of fencing is designed to maximize light, space, and visibility, making your pool area feel larger and more connected to the rest of your outdoor living space.
One of the biggest advantages of frameless pool fencing is its minimalist, unintrusive design. With no bulky posts or frames, the glass panels appear to “float,” supported only by premium stainless‑steel spigots. This creates a sleek, contemporary look that complements modern landscaping and architectural styles.
Beyond aesthetics, frameless glass fencing is also low‑maintenance. With enduro shield applied it makes cleaning an ease, and the stainless‑steel hardware is built to resist rust and weathering. This makes it a practical, long‑lasting investment that enhances both safety and property value. As Australian backyards continue to evolve into stylish outdoor living zones, frameless glass fencing has become the gold standard for those seeking a blend of safety, durability, and high‑end design

Aluminuim Pool Fencing
Aluminium pool fencing is a stylish, durable and low‑maintenance way to make pools safe and compliant, which is why it is one of the most popular fencing choices around Australian backyards.
What is aluminium pool fencing?
Aluminium pool fencing uses lightweight powered-coated tubes installed around a pool to form a compliant safety barrier.
It is designed to meet Australian pool barrier standards while delivering a clean, modern look that suits most home styles.
Key benefits for Aussie backyards
Naturally corrosion‑resistant, so it does not rust even in harsh or coastal environments, especially when powder coated.
Very low maintenance, usually only needing an occasional wash rather than regular repainting or refinishing.
Lightweight yet strong, making installation easier and helping panels stand up to wind, sun and everyday knocks.
Budget‑friendly compared with many glass systems, and cost‑effective long term due to its longevity and low upkeep.
Safety and compliance basics
In Australia, every pool must be enclosed by a compliant barrier that helps prevent unsupervised access, especially by young children.
For aluminium pool fences this typically means a minimum height of 1.2 metres, gaps under 100 mm, non‑climbable rail layouts, and self‑closing, self‑latching gates that latch from any open position.
Local councils can vary details, so homeowners should always check state and council rules or consult a licensed installer before building or modifying a fence.
Design ideas and styles
Classic tubular designs with vertical bars give a timeless, open look and work well alongside paving, decking and lawns.
Powder‑coated colour options (such as charcoal, black or monument tones) help match roof, window and gate hardware for a cohesive outdoor space.
Aluminium can also be combined with glass sections, using aluminium posts or frames to support glass panels where clear views to the pool are desired
Western Australia Pool Safety and Regulations
In Western Australia, all swimming pools and spas with a water depth greater than 300 mm must have compliant safety barriers to prevent unsupervised access by young children.
