The VBA’s pool and spa safety barrier self-assessment checklists
If you are having any work on an existing safety barrier, a permit may need to be issued to alter the barrier. Work to alter an existing barrier will need to comply with the current Regulations.
Yes you can. The new requirements set the boundary barrier at 1.8 meters.
Yes under AS 1926.1-2012 you can. You must have a Building Surveyor assess an application and issue a building permit
Yes you need a building permit issued and a Building Inspector passes it.
No it doesn’t. You need an independent barrier and have it inspected.
Unfortunately not all powder coat fences are not build with the same high quality standards. You can perform a simple test by squeezing two vertical members together to see how rigid your fence panels are. If you can open gaps either side by more than 100mm, they may not meet minimum manufacturing standards
Ensure your pool is safe and compliant with Pool Safe Inspections Victoria. Our expert team understands Victoria’s fencing laws and pool safety regulations, providing hassle-free inspections for all pool types—from portable pools to in-ground spas.
