Make your pool stand help with a semi-frameless glass balustrade

New laws regarding the protection of swimming pools in the Gold Coast area means that homeowners need to take steps to secure their swimming pools with fences. There are many options open to you, with wooden fences or even stone walls fitting the requirements of the law. However, most homeowners feel that they want to have the advantage of viewing their swimming pool, even when it is behind a fence, and this is where fencing such as a semi-frameless glass balustrade is able to provide homeowners with what they want. Glass fencing has become such a popular choice that there are now professional companies offering the manufacture and installation of glass frames for these fences.

What is so appealing about glass balustrades?

Many homeowners install swimming pools in their yards in order to show them off, or to simply enjoy having a swimming pool in their own property. When the laws were changed to demand that fences were fitted around them, the pleasure of being able to look at the pools was lost. Having a swimming pool and not being able to see it tends to be rather frustrating to many homeowners, and this is where glass frames can be the perfect solution. Having glass fences means that homeowners can enjoy their pool, and they can also see into the pool when their children are using it. This means that the pool creates an ascetic appeal as well as being a practical solution to the demands of the government. The appeal of glass balustrades lie in the fact that they offer a sophisticated way of protecting your pool, and can look more like decoration than necessity.

Choosing a glass balustrade

When you choose to have a glass balustrade fitted around your pool, there are a number of options open to you. If you choose framed balustrades, then you will have a small frame around the outside of your glass, which can interfere with your view of the pool, and can also be rather jarring from an aesthetic point of view. Semi-frameless glass balustrade designs on the other hand, offer you the opportunity to have balustrades fitted that are secure, and which can comply with the law, but which still look very attractive to the viewer. You can find an excellent balustrade which looks great, and which will show off your pool to its best all year round.
