The Challenge

Solving Safety and Aesthetic Challenges

The primary problem many Brisbane homeowners face is finding a fencing solution that complies with Queensland’s tough pool safety standards (AS1926.1) without turning their backyard into a cage.

Traditional aluminium fencing can feel restrictive and block the view of children swimming, which is a significant safety concern in itself. Furthermore, poor-quality DIY glass kits often fail certification due to incorrect latch tension, non-compliant gaps, or inferior spigot mounts that wobble over time.

Our Solution

Precision Engineered Frameless Glass

Our solution is precision-engineered frameless glass. By using high-grade, toughened safety glass, we eliminate visual obstructions, allowing you to supervise the pool area from the patio or kitchen without hindrance.

We solve the compliance headache by handling every technical detail. My team ensures that the climbable zones are cleared, the gate latches self-close perfectly from any angle, and the glass thickness exceeds safety requirements.

We also address the longevity issue. Cheap hardware rusts quickly in Brisbane’s humidity. We only use marine-grade stainless steel fixtures that withstand our subtropical climate. By choosing Brisbane Glazier, you avoid the nightmare of failed safety inspections and enjoy a seamless, high-end finish that integrates perfectly with your landscaping.

Our Direct-to-You Installation Process

Our process is designed to be seamless and transparent, ensuring you know exactly who is on your site and what is happening at every stage.

Consultation

We assess 'climbable zones' near the fence line—retaining walls, trees, garden taps—to ensure your design will pass the pool safety inspection.

Laser Layout

We use laser levelling technology to map out spigot locations. Precision is critical; even a millimetre of error can prevent a magnetic latch from engaging.

Core Drilling

Our trucks arrive fully stocked. We perform core drilling or base plating for your specific surface, whether concrete, pavers, or timber decking.

Certification Ready

We chemically anchor spigots, set glass, tension gates, and check gaps (under 100mm). We leave you with a sparkling, safe pool area ready for certification.

Strict Adherence to AS1288 and Pool Safety Standards

We do not cut corners when it comes to the safety of your family. All our installations strictly adhere to AS1288:2006 (Glass in Buildings) and AS1926.1 (Safety Barriers for Swimming Pools).

As licensed glaziers, we understand the critical nature of gate latch heights (minimum 1500mm for internal, 1200mm for shielded) and non-climbable zones (NCZ). Every panel we install is stamped with the relevant safety standards mark.

Upon completion, we provide the necessary Form 15 compliance documentation regarding the materials used, ensuring your private certifier has everything they need to issue your pool safety certificate.

Expert Care for Long-Lasting Clarity

While glass is low maintenance, it is not 'no maintenance'. To keep your pool fence looking pristine, we recommend a simple cleaning routine. Wash the glass panels every 3-6 months with warm soapy water and a soft sponge to remove salt spray, chlorine residue, and dust.

Check Your Gate
Crucially, you must inspect the hardware. Check that the gate self-closes from a resting position and latches securely. If the gate speed changes, the hydraulic hinges may need a simple adjustment.

Rinse your stainless steel spigots with fresh water to prevent tea-staining, especially if you live near the bay. Avoid abrasive scourers which can scratch the surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

We install to these standards.

Will the glass break?

It is 12mm toughened safety glass.

It is extremely strong and impact resistant.

It is very rare for it to break.

Do I need to clean it often?

Like any outdoor surface, it needs cleaning, but a hose down and a squeegee usually keeps it looking great.

Using a Nano-coating can reduce cleaning time.
