    Frameless glass

    Glass panels with no frame around them

    A frameless glass pool fence is a pool barrier made from glass panels with no frame around each panel. It is used at the edge of a swimming pool, where an open view matters. The style is minimal: clean lines and an unobstructed look across the water.

    Frameless fencing uses panels of toughened glass supported by stainless steel spigots, which keeps the view clear. It is designed for safety and clarity, with a seamless finish, and it suits pools, patios and outdoor living areas.

    The same glass options suit modern and classic landscapes. Each fence is tailored to the layout and the design of the property. All our glass pool fences, including frameless, are designed and installed to meet or exceed the requirements set by Australian Standards (AS1926.1). We take care of compliance from start to finish and provide all necessary certification.

    Spigots, glass and the open view

    A frameless panel has no frame around the glass. Stainless steel spigots hold each panel, which is why the line stays open to the water, the patio and the garden beyond. The glass supplied for this fence is 12mm toughened safety glass, engineered for high impact and extreme weather, with corrosion-resistant fittings for coastal conditions in Sydney.

    The spigot line is set to the edge you want to keep clear. A long straight run, a return around a corner, or a short panel beside a step are laid out on site to the shape of that edge.

    The gate in a frameless run

    The gate is part of the same run, not a framed insert added at the end. It is planned where people actually walk, with quality hardware and proper latching. In NSW, under the pool owner obligations, a pool gate should swing away from the pool and shut by itself from any open position. It self-latches when it closes. It should not be left propped open. Those gate checks are covered in our guide to pool fence requirements in NSW.

    Fixing into the pool surround

    Spigots need a sound surface. The free site assessment looks at tile, concrete or timber at the pool edge, and at how the finished ground falls along that edge. Fence height is still read from the finished ground. On a surround that drops, the panels follow the fall so the bottom of the glass stays with the paving instead of leaving a tall opening at the low end.

    Bring photos of the pool edge, the surface the spigots would fix to, and the opening where the gate should go. If a tree, a step or an outdoor shower already sits on that line, point it out so the layout can work around it.

    Cleaning frameless glass

    With no frame around the panel, both faces of the glass can be wiped. A wash with fresh water keeps salt film off the glass and off the stainless steel spigots. Check that the gate still shuts by itself and self-latches. Any trees, shrubs or any other objects such as a barbeque, pot plants, toys, ladders and chairs must not be within the 90cm non-climbable zone. This zone is measured in an arc shape from the top of the pool fence arching towards the ground.
