General Information

The location of your fence should be determined by your backyard layout with consideration given to usage patterns and risk areas. The safest fences are those which are installed to isolate just the swimming pool.
If the location of your barrier must be used as a "pass-through barrier" rather than an "isolation barrier", we strongly recommend using our *PATENTED Self-Closing Removable Gate System for optimum safety.

All Guardian fences can be removed in minutes by an adult. The sections roll up into small bundles for ease of handling and compact storage. Color coordinated deck caps are provided to cover the holes left in the deck when the fence is not in use.

Specifications


SELF CLOSING GATE:
Galvanized steel frame coated in plastic with matching colors to complement our fencing system available in BLACK, GREEN, BROWN, GRAY and BEIGE. The trusses and the “U” shaped gate are just two of the 19 different claims on our gate that are protected by US Patent #5,664,769. The lack of a top crossbar on our gate makes it extremely difficult for a child to climb any portion of our fence or gate. There is nothing rigid at the top of our fence OR gate for children to grab and support themselves. This gate is self latching, key lockable and REMOVABLE

GATE HARDWARE:
Latch: The ONLY latch we use is MAGNA LATCH. It operates magnetically and is key lockable. Every gate we have shipped since we went into production in 1996 used MAGNA LATCH for its latching mechanism.

HINGES:
The same company that produces the MAGNA LATCH produces the TRU-CLOSE hinges. These hinges are tension adjustable and are built with Stainless steel springs.

POLES:
All poles are constructed with T6 marine grade aluminum and are internally reinforced from top to bottom with a tri-core design. Our poles are available in powdercoated colors of BLACK, GREEN, BROWN, GRAY and BEIGE or in a silver colored MILL FINISH

POLE SPACING:
Our four foot high fence is available with either 30” or 36” pole spacing. The five foot high fencing is only available in 30” pole spacing. 

FABRICS:
Our exclusive INTERLOCKING mesh is the strongest and most transparent mesh available anywhere. This mesh is available in BLACK, GREEN, BROWN or BEIGE. Our standard fabric, we call GUARDTEX. The Guardtex mesh is available from stock in BLACK only.

Hooks and Eyes: All hooks and eyes are made from stainless steel.

Installations with dark colored poles use BLACK TEFLON coated stainless Steel hooks and eyes and plain stainless steel finish for light colored poles.

PADLOCKS:
All padlocks are solid brass including the shackle. These padlocks can be used to prevent unauthorized removal of the fence.
