Florida enforces some of the most comprehensive pool safety laws in the country to help prevent child drownings and protect families. In Sarasota—where backyard pools are common and swimming is part of everyday life—these regulations are vital for ensuring the safety of children, guests, and the entire household 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 Sarasota are designed to meet Florida’s Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act and Sarasota County building code requirements:
Florida Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act (F.S. 515): State law mandates that residential pools be enclosed by a barrier at least 48 inches tall, with no openings larger than 4 inches that could allow a small child to pass through. Gates must be self-closing, self-latching, and swing outward from the pool area to prevent unsupervised access.
Sarasota County Pool Barrier Guidelines: Local enforcement aligns with the Florida Building Code – Residential Section R4501.17, which includes additional safety measures such as minimum latch height, non-climbable construction, and audible alarms on doors and windows when the home serves as part of the pool barrier.
ASTM F2286 Compliance: All Pool Guard mesh pool safety fences in Sarasota are manufactured and installed to meet ASTM F2286, the national safety standard for removable mesh barriers—providing superior durability, climb resistance, and protection for children under six.
A truly secure pool requires both quality safety fences and properly designed safety gates working as an integrated system:
