What Do I Need to Order for a Glass Pool Gate?

 
Ordering a glass gate can be one of the more confusing steps in setting up your pool fencing. However, understanding the different types of hinges and latches available can help you choose the right gate configuration and placement.
 
One key detail to remember when installing a glass gate is the required spacing between panels. The size of the gaps—especially between the hinge and latch sides—will vary depending on the hinge and latch type you select.
 

Important: By law, the gate must swing away from the pool. If your gate swings inward, your fence will not comply with regulations.

What You’ll Need to Install a Glass Pool Gate

Here’s a simple breakdown of the four main components you'll need to order:

  • 1 x Gate Panel
  • 1 x Hinge Panel (only if hinging from glass to glass)
  • 1 x Latch
  • 1 x Hinge Set

Note: All glass panels must be pre-drilled. Once the glass is toughened, it cannot be drilled.

Available Gate Ranges

We offer two ranges of glass gates and hinge panels to suit different needs and budgets:
