Pool Safety & Compliance in the Bay Area – No Compromises

California enforces some of the strongest pool safety standards in the country to reduce the risk of accidental drownings—especially among children under six. Across the Bay Area, where backyard pools are popular and the region’s mild climate supports nearly year-round swimming, these safety measures are essential. Installing a compliant pool safety fence ensures your property aligns with California Building Code (CBC) Section 3109, along with any additional regulations enforced by local cities and counties—creating a secure, legally compliant environment for kids, pets, and guests.

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™ mesh pool safety fences in the Bay Area are professionally engineered to meet California’s residential pool safety laws and fully comply with local building codes enforced across cities and counties in the region. Built for long-term durability, our fences offer strong, low-profile protection suited to the Bay Area’s diverse microclimates—ranging from warm inland summers to breezy coastal evenings and seasonal fog.

  • California Building Code (CBC) Section 3109 – State law requires that all residential pools be enclosed by a barrier at least 60 inches tall. The fence must prevent a 4-inch sphere from passing through. Gates must swing away from the pool, close automatically, and latch securely. Latches must be installed at least 60 inches above ground to stay out of reach of young children.
  • Local Pool Barrier Enforcement in the Bay Area – While CBC standards apply statewide, local jurisdictions—including San Francisco, Alameda, Contra Costa, San Mateo, and Santa Clara counties—may enforce additional safety rules, such as non-climbable fence designs or self-closing, alarmed doors and windows when a home forms part of the enclosure.
  • ASTM F2286-Compliant Fencing Every Pool Guard™ mesh fence installed in the Bay Area is constructed to meet ASTM F2286, the national safety standard for removable mesh pool barriers. Our fences are UV-stabilized, rust-resistant, and designed to withstand the region’s sun exposure, coastal moisture, and daily temperature changes—ensuring long-term protection and full code compliance throughout the year.

California Pool Safety Barrier Laws & Requirements

California law requires all residential swimming pools to be enclosed with approved safety barriers to help prevent accidental drownings—especially for children under six. Pool Guard™ safety fences throughout the Bay Area are built to meet or exceed California Building Code (CBC) Section 3109 and comply fully with local regulations enforced by individual counties and cities across the region.

Our premium mesh and aluminum pool fencing systems provide strong, low-profile protection specifically engineered for the Bay Area’s diverse microclimates—from the coastal fog of San Francisco to the sunny, breezy conditions in the East and South Bay.

  • Minimum Fence Height – Barriers must stand at least 60 inches tall and be constructed to prevent the passage of a 4-inch sphere—minimizing the risk of unsupervised access by small children.
  • Self-Closing, Self-Latching Gates – Gates must swing outward from the pool, close automatically, and latch securely. The latch must be mounted a minimum of 60 inches above ground to remain inaccessible to young children.
  • Non-Climbable Design – To meet safety code, pool fences must avoid horizontal rails, footholds, or decorative openings that could be used for climbing—creating a secure, tamper-resistant barrier.
  • Built for Bay Area Weather – Whether you’re in Oakland, San Mateo, or Walnut Creek, our fences are engineered to handle coastal moisture, inland heat, and seasonal wind. UV-stabilized, rust-resistant, and low-maintenance, they’re designed to deliver long-term safety and durability throughout the year.
