WARNING THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR COMPETENT ADULT SUPERVISION IN THE SWIM MING POOL ENVIRONMENT! LIVES DEPEND ON YOU! • Layers of protection such as a fence, wall or natural barrier around your pool can help reduce unauthorized use. • Make sure pool entrance has a self-closing and self-latching gate and is properly maintained. • Check with local building codes to be sure you are in compliance with fencing laws.
STEP 2-A Install mounting bracket to each upright (DIAGRAM 2-A). When installing your fence, it is important that there is no more than a 4" gap between the pool’s top rail and the bottom rail of fence. To determine location of mounting bracket, simply line up bracket with a fence post attached (slide fence post onto mounting bracket, but do not permanently attach fence post to mounting bracket as it will need to be removed), and measure gap between top rail of pool and bottom rail hole in the post.
STEP 3 Install fence posts (DIAGRAM 3). Start by installing the two fence end-posts first. The end-posts are identifiable by having rail holes only on one side. Fence end-posts must be installed where fence will start and stop. Slide fence end-post onto the mounting bracket. Allow at least 1/2 “between the post and the pool’s top cap. This will allow for easy installation of winter cover. Attach fence post to mounting bracket using four #8 screws.
STEP 4 Installation of bottom horizontal rail. Measure distance between two fence posts and add 1" (DIAGRAM 4-A). Each side of bottom rail should extend 1/2” into each fence post. Cut bottom rail to this measurement. Note: cut equal amounts off each end of rail to ensure balanced spacing of spindles. Do not install top rail yet! Attach bottom rail to post using two #8 screws (DIAGRAM 4-B). Do not cut more than one rail at a time. Distance between pool uprights may vary.
STEP 5 DIAGRAM 5-A Insert spindles into the bottom rail DIAGRAM 5-B Install top rail using instruction in Step 4. STEP 6 Insert all caps. If necessary, use adhesive such as Liquid Nails to hold caps in place. STEP 7 Check to be sure installation is secure by lightly shaking each section to be sure screws were properly installed.
