Pool Fence Installation in Shreveport & Bossier City, LA

Safe, good-looking pool fences and self-closing pool gates

A pool fence has one job that matters more than looks: keeping small children and pets out of the water when no adult is watching. It should also look good around the backyard you've invested in. Superior Fence & Decks installs pool fences and pool gates in Shreveport, Bossier City and across Northwest Louisiana that are built for safety first and still look great.

Pool fence options we install

Ameristar ornamental aluminum and steel

Ameristar ornamental fencing is our top pick for most pools. It doesn't rust out like cheap steel, it doesn't rot, and you can see through it, so the pool stays in view from the house. Ameristar offers pool-friendly styles with tight picket spacing and matching self-closing gates. See our wrought iron and aluminum fence page.

Bufftech vinyl

Bufftech PVC vinyl privacy fences are a great fit when you want privacy around the pool and no painting or staining. Vinyl handles splashing water and Louisiana humidity well. See our vinyl fence page.

Western red cedar and redwood

A cedar or redwood privacy fence gives your pool a warm, natural look and full privacy from the neighbors. See our cedar and redwood page.

Chain link

Black vinyl-coated chain link is a budget-friendly way to fence a pool area, especially on larger lots. See our chain link page.

What makes a pool fence safe

Pool barrier rules vary by city and parish, and your insurance company or HOA may have its own. Most follow the same basic safety ideas, and we build to them:

• Height. Pool barriers are commonly required to be at least 4 feet tall.
• No easy climbing. Picket spacing and rails are set so a child can't squeeze through or use the fence as a ladder.
• Small gaps at the bottom. The fence sits close to the ground so no one can crawl under.
• Self-closing, self-latching gates. Pool gates should swing shut and latch on their own, usually opening away from the pool.
• High latches. The latch is mounted high so small children can't reach it.

Before we build, we'll talk through what your city requires. We always recommend checking with your local permit office, and we're glad to help you understand what they ask for.

Pool gates

The gate is the most important part of any pool fence. We install self-closing hinges and magnetic or gravity latches that are made for pool use, and we adjust them so the gate closes and latches every time, even from a gentle push. Learn more on our gates page.

Building around new and existing pools

We work with homeowners who are putting in a new pool and with homeowners who have had a pool for years. If your pool builder is still on site, we'll coordinate timing so the fence goes in when it makes sense. If you have an older pool fence that's leaning, rusting or has a gate that won't latch, we can repair or replace it.

Pool fence FAQs

How tall does a pool fence need to be?

Many codes call for at least 4 feet, but rules vary. We'll help you confirm what your city requires.

Can my house wall be part of the pool barrier?

Sometimes, but doors that open to the pool may need alarms or other protection. Check with your local permit office.
