Black Aluminum Pool Fence in Rocky Mount, VA

A black aluminum pool fence installed for this Rocky Mount backyard, set to meet Virginia pool-safety code with proper height, picket spacing, and a self-closing, self-latching gate. The goal was a secure enclosure around the water that didn’t box in the rest of the yard.

Aluminum works well around a pool because it won’t rust from the moisture or chemicals and needs almost no upkeep. The slim black pickets keep the sightlines open and the flow of the backyard intact, so the fence does its safety job without standing out as a barrier.
