Florida has some of the nation’s strongest pool safety laws, designed to reduce the risk of child drownings and ensure safer homes across the state. In Jacksonville—where backyard pools are common and swimming is part of everyday life—these regulations are critical for protecting children, families, and visitors in and around the water.
“According to National Institutes of Health, Drowning is the 2nd or 3rd leading cause of unintentional injury deaths among children under 15 in industrialized countries, with children under 5 facing the highest risk. In the U.S., the drowning rate for children under 5 is 3.9 per 100,000. Installing pool fencing reduces the risk of drowning by approximately 73%.”
Pool Guard safety fences in Jacksonville are built to meet Florida’s pool safety laws and City of Jacksonville building code standards:
Florida Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act (F.S. 515): State law requires all residential pools to be enclosed by a barrier that is at least 48 inches tall, with no gaps or openings large enough to allow a 4-inch sphere to pass through. Gates must be self-closing, self-latching, and swing outward from the pool area to help prevent unsupervised access.
City of Jacksonville Pool Barrier Guidelines: Local enforcement aligns with the Florida Building Code – Residential Section R4501.17, which mandates audible alarms on doors and windows providing direct pool access when the home serves as part of the barrier. Barriers must also feature climb-resistant construction, proper latch height, and maintain ground clearance limits to prevent child entry.
ASTM F2286 Compliance: Every Pool Guard mesh pool fence is manufactured and installed in accordance with ASTM F2286, the national safety standard for removable mesh barriers—ensuring proven durability, structural strength, and climb resistance to help protect children under six.
A truly secure pool requires both quality safety fences and properly designed safety gates working as an integrated system:
