Know before you buy
Yes, the gate must be mounted on concrete to ensure the stability and structural integrity required for the self-closing and self-latching mechanisms to function safely.
The gate is designed for broad compatibility and works with many popular pool fence brands, including EZ-Guard and Visi-Guard. We recommend verifying your existing fence post dimensions to ensure a proper fit.
The gate uses a patented magnetic self-latching system that automatically engages when the gate swings shut. This ensures the gate remains securely locked without needing to be manually latched every time.
Yes, the gate is engineered for straightforward DIY installation. However, because it requires concrete mounting, you will need the appropriate tools, such as a hammer drill and masonry bits, to secure it properly.
Yes, the gate features a 180-degree opening angle, allowing it to swing fully in either direction for convenient access to your pool area.
The gate is constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum with a powder-coated finish, which is highly resistant to rust and corrosion. Additionally, the internal hinges are specifically designed to prevent binding and degradation in outdoor, wet environments.
