When selecting a pool fence, fiberglass stands out over aluminum for several key reasons.
Durability:
Fiberglass is known for its incredible strength and resilience. Resistant to rust, corrosion, and UV damage, it’s an excellent choice for sunny, humid or coastal areas. Fiberglass fences can withstand the test of time. Unlike aluminum, which can corrode over time when exposed to environmental elements, fiberglass maintains its integrity and appearance.
Strength & Safety:
When a fiberglass post stresses to its breaking point, it returns to perfectly upright maintaining the pool barrier! When aluminum becomes comprised, it will bend or even snap making it a lot easier for a child to break the barrier, and enter the pool area. Additionally, fiberglass is non-conductive reducing the risk of shock from lightning or electrical systems.
Maintenance:
Fiberglass requires less upkeep compared to aluminum. With fiberglass, the color is infused into the material, making it a solid color that can’t peel, flake, or chip. The coat also has a UV veil to help protect from degradation from the sun. In contrast, aluminum fences are painted or powder coated to give color & prevent corrosion which may be scratched away over time exposing the silver aluminum color below to the elements.
