Two ways to mount it

Glass pool fencing comes down to two systems, and the calculator sizes either one.

Spigots. 12mm panels held by two stainless feet each — core-drilled into the slab, or base-plated where you can't drill. They're friction-fit, so there are no holes in the glass and you can nudge each panel plumb as you set it. Cheaper, more forgiving on a slab that isn't dead flat, and what most jobs use.

Channel. The glass seats into a continuous aluminium track instead of individual spigots — less hardware on show, a cleaner line, taller 1350mm panels. It costs more, and it wants a flat, square slab edge to seat properly.

What you're actually getting

No posts, no rails, just panels. You keep the line of sight to the pool and the yard, which is the whole reason people go glass over metal.

It's a real DIY job: no glass to drill, spigots that adjust, and a parts list that turns up knowing what it's for. Two things to be straight about before you order — the panels are heavy, so line up a second person for install day, and salt and pool chemistry mean the odd wipe-down. Neither's a dealbreaker; both are worth knowing.

What you're actually getting

Getting it past inspection

Every state needs a compliant barrier to AS 1926.1 around a pool — that's not optional, and it's the same standard whether you go glass or metal. For glass it means Grade A toughened safety glass to AS/NZS 2208, the barrier at full height, gaps controlled top and bottom, and a gate that self-closes and self-latches.

The calculator plans to those rules, so the layout you order is the layout that passes. The inspection and certificate process changes state to state — that's covered in our Pool Fence Laws directory.

Not sure glass is right?

Want the view and don't mind glass sitting at the dearer end? This is your category. If the budget's tight, or you're after privacy, airflow or a particular look, have a look at the metal range first, Flat Top, BARR, Blade and Premium Perf. We put the two side by side in Glass vs Metal Pool Fencing.
