Why Rent a Pool Fence?

Drowning is the #1 cause of death for children under five, beating out all others, including car accidents and disease. The safety of your family leaves no room for compromise. You wouldn’t buy a car without a seatbelt. You shouldn’t have a pool without a fence.

Not at home, not during your holidays.

This is the pool fence that will keep your children safe from the greatest danger.

The outcome with a toddler falling into a pool undetected is almost certain.

Drowning happens quickly and without warning. There is no cry for help.

77 percent of the children who drowned had been seen 5 minutes or less before being missed and subsequently discovered in the pool.

Where were they last seen?

  • 46 percent WERE LAST SEEN IN THE HOUSE prior to being found in the pool. Of these, 15 percent were thought to be sleeping.
  • 23 percent were last seen in the yard, porch or patio, not in the pool area. That’s a total of 69 percent that were thought not to be in the pool area.

Removable safety fencing has proven, over the past thirty years, to be the most practical and effective barrier against pool drowning.

The concept is simple. Isolate the pool from your home and eliminate all access to the water by a toddler. For the pool to be truly isolated and the barriers serve effectively, there must not be a reason to open the pool fence other than to use or service the pool itself.

Bali Baby Pool fences do not cause any damage to the property/pool area since it is a freestanding system, each fence piece secured with the next tightly by cable ties.

Our gate uses only the most proven latch and hinge system. The Magna-Latch has been tested to more than 400,000 cycles. MAGNA-LATCH gate latches are magnetically triggered safety devices that have revolutionized the safety, reliability and child-resistance of swimming pool, childcare and household gates. The unique operating principle is brilliantly simple. As the gate swings shut, a powerful ‘permanent’ magnet draws a latch bolt from one housing into the other, latching it securely. No amount of shaking, pushing or pulling can disengage the latch. The concept is so advanced it boasts international awards for design excellence. The latch has been designed to meet strict international safety codes, including all codes relating to swimming pool gate safety.

How it works:

Once you have decided to go ahead with a booking of our pool fence we will contact the Villa/Residence, inspect the pool area to make sure our system can be applied and inform you of the hire fee.

The fence will be installed prior to your arrival.

Set down definite pool rules covering its use and more importantly, when it is not in use. We all have a tendency to give a little leeway on this or that with our children, but not when it comes to the pool.

THERE CAN BE NO COMPROMISE ON POOL SAFETY. YOU ARE DEALING, LITERALLY, WITH A LIFE AND DEATH SITUATION

Do not leave a toddler or young children in the pool or pool area without adult supervision. Older children are not always as sensitive to the dangers of drowning when it applies to others.

Never go into the house to answer the telephone and leave a child unattended in the pool area. Numerous drowning incidents are associated with the answering of a telephone in the house while the pool was in use by children.

Do not leave objects in the pool that could attract your child. Children who would not normally go near a pool because of fear may not even think about the water if they are in pursuit of a favorite toy in the pool.

“Staging platforms”, such as tables and chairs, should not be kept near the pool fence.

Allowing the pool area to be used as a play area is as bad as letting young children play in a busy street or with poisonous chemicals. Isolating the pool area to be used for swimming only is the most essential concept of drowning prevention.

If you miss your child always check the pool first, even if access is thought to be restricted, then look elsewhere.
In a drowning accident seconds can make the difference between death, recovery, or just survival.

Remember, fencing is only intended to restrict children from gaining access to the pool area, and should not be seen as a substitute for adult supervision of all children around a pool.
