Are you having a new pool built? Or perhaps you’re looking to update your existing pool fencing? Exakt Glass has glass pool fencing options and expert advice to make your pool fencing project a success.
With the predominant outdoor culture in Australia, you’d be well aware that pool fencing is required for safety reasons. Pool fencing acts a safety barrier to keep children from drowning in swimming pools and spas. This is so important because drowning is a leading cause of death in young children in Australia. But all swimming pool drownings are preventable. That’s why the standards are being continually updated in Australia, to keep our families safe and our backyards functional and beautiful. We know we produce a stunning product, but at Exakt Glass, we’re all about safety first.
Have you decided to invest in a swimming pool for your home? Perhaps you’re renovating your existing pool and love the idea of installing contemporary glass pool fencing to keep your family safe?
At Exakt Glass, we offer superior quality glass pool fencing for sale at prices you simply won’t believe, together with all the accessories, advice and information you could need to ensure that the installation is a success.
Many people rule out modern glass pool fencing and balustrades as they perceive it to be an expensive option for screening off a pool. However, when it comes to installing a glass pool fence, cost is just one of the considerations.
There’s the safety aspects, and the aesthetics too. While pool fencing is a mandatory installation around most domestic pools for safety reasons, there’s no need to compromise on style, when you see the glass pool fencing prices we offer at Exakt Glass.
If the cost of glass pool fencing is preventing you from choosing a glass fence, request a quote from us here at Exakt Glass and you’ll see exactly how much the glass pool fencing cost per metre compares to that of other glass pool fencing suppliers, as our prices for glass fencing start from around $100 per metre.
In fact, if you can find the same superior quality glass at any other supplier that is in stock at a cheaper price, we’ll undercut their price by 5% – and that’s a promise!
Although our prices for swimming pool glass fencing is the lowest in Melbourne, it never means that you’ll be getting inferior quality glass.

Pools containing at least 300mm of water must have a safety barrier around them with a minimum height of 1200mm. All the Exakt Glass stock panels are 1200mm high, which makes it easier than ever to create a beautiful looking fence that meets the AS1926 safety regulations.

Before buying and installing a pool fence you should be aware of the Australian Standards and local or state-specific regulations, so it’s important to check with your local council. It differs between states whether the pool fence requires its own building permit, or if it will be covered under the pool building permit. Pool fences must meet AS1926, which means that pool fencing:
The supply of glass pool fencing starts from around $120 per square metre, with glass pool fencing installation costing around $100 per square metre. However, there are ways you can manage the glass pool fence cost. Stainless steel components like glass fence spigots tend to be more expensive than the glass pool fence panels. Therefore, the design can influence the cost significantly. Having several gates, using smaller glass fence panels and having more fencing angles means you will need more parts to make up your fence, thus making it more expensive. Keeping the design of your fence simple, without the need for custom-made panels is a way to manage the cost of your new fence; as is keeping the fence as small as possible, while still meeting regulations. Another way to reduce the cost of your pool fencing is to consider DIY glass pool fencing.
If you’re handy and up to date on building and pool safety, you might consider DIY glass pool fencing. Exakt Glass offer comprehensive DIY advice, a frameless glass pool fencing installation guide and even a DIY glass and fencing warehouse in Melbourne. We will assist you in selecting all of the components needed for your fencing project, including glass fence panels, stainless steel spigots for glass fencing, standoff assemblies, hinges, latches and clamps. We can also provide a helpful list of essential equipment you will need for the installation, such as safety gear, lifting equipment for moving glass panels, an impact driver and drill.
Of course, if you aren’t confident you know how to install glass pool fencing yourself, are limited by physical constraints, or you are unfamiliar with the relevant regulations, Exakt Glass can happily recommend licensed and insured installers to you. Hiring a licensed pool fence installer is essential. This ensures you will receive a quality job, guaranteeing safety for your family. A licensed and insured installer will build the fence to the appropriate rules and regulations and mean any future insurance claims you may make are not put at risk from an incorrect installation.
To keep your new pool fence in beautiful condition, we suggest following these best practices for maintenance:
Interested in the pool fencing options available? There are of course the standard aluminium fencing and timber/cabling designs available, but you should also consider glass pool fencing.

That’s why Exakt Glass produce stock panels in a modular design which are 1200mm high.
