With summer right around the corner, we’re basically welcoming the makeover season! Summer is usually the best time for most of the home improvement projects you want to get done and that includes, of course, backyard projects such as pool fencing.

Fencing is really important to keep kids and wildlife safe from accidentally falling into the swimming pool, but not all of the options will give you a beautiful landscape in the process. However, we’ve found five pool fencing options that will add beauty to your backyard!

Glass Fencing

Glass has become a widely popular material, not only because it makes for gorgeous landscaping and decor, but also because it’s so practical to keep it clean. So, unless you live in a tornado or hurricane-prone area (where debris could be swept up by the wind and scratch the glass), this is a great option to make it a fence around your pool!

Posts Fence

Posts are a really nice option you don’t have privacy as a priority. They are able to create an adorable, homey environment without any effort - which makes them perfect for a home outside the city.

Wood Fencing

Now, if privacy is your priority then a wood fence is probably the perfect pick for you! Sure, there are many types and heights of wood, but picking the right one (like the photo above), makes a gorgeous fence.

Wired Fencing

This wired fence with the teak wood addition on top is one of my favorite ideas. It blends in beautifully in the backyard. In addition to that: it’s the go-to choice for the industrial chic style that’s been so popular this year.

Rolling Gate

A rolling gate can be the perfect solution to put around your pool if you want to keep your pool area safe with a stylish twist. This is also perfect if you plan on remodeling the area around your pool anytime soon because you’ll be able to fit bigger equipment through the opening than you would with a traditional fence gate.
