Hello,
We are in the midst of installing a 12x20 above-ground pool and I could do with some advice/ideas.
A patio extension is going to go in next to the pool and the plan is to backfill the dirt up to the side of the wall. That will leave approximately 36 inches between the ground and the top of the pool wall.
On the other side of the pool, ground to the top of the pool is 54 inches but we intend to backfill a few inches of dirt and put stones around the side etc.
The ultimate plan is to get a deck at the far end with some stairs leading from the patio.
The easiest but least aesthetic looking is to have a 24" above ground pool fence around the perimeter of the pool. This will satisfy building regs that need a 5ft fence around the pool. Another option I have considered but no idea how it will look is to have a fence around the pool that comes across the patio and will include a gate. I am not sure how this will look, given the land is sloping. Am I missing any other ideas/thoughts with regards to fences for pools?
