Code-compliant pool barrier fences and secure pet enclosures built for Raleigh homeowners. Our licensed crew installs aluminum, vinyl, and chain link pool and pet fences across Wake County and the Triangle — with permits, inspections, and gate hardware all handled by us.
A pool fence is not optional in North Carolina — it’s a code requirement for any residential pool, and for good reason. Drowning is one of the leading causes of accidental death for children under five. A properly installed, code-compliant pool barrier gives your family real protection. For pet owners, a well-built enclosure means your dogs can run, play, and be outside safely without escaping or getting into danger. We build both — to code, on budget, and with a full workmanship warranty on every install.
The top choice for pool enclosures across the Triangle. Rust-proof, code-compliant, and looks sharp for decades without any painting or treatment. Black powder-coat finish is accepted by virtually every Raleigh HOA. Self-closing and self-latching gate hardware is included on every pool install. Meets all NC residential pool barrier requirements.
Vinyl pool fence offers a clean, bright look with zero maintenance. Chain link with puppy picket mesh is the most affordable option for pet enclosures and dog runs. Both can be built to pool code height requirements with the right self-latching gate hardware. We'll help you pick the right material for your budget and yard at the estimate.
Not sure which material is right for your pool or yard? We’ll walk you through every option at your free on-site estimate — no pressure, just honest advice.
Code-compliant pool enclosures built to NC's residential pool barrier requirements — minimum 48" height, self-closing and self-latching gates, and max 4" picket spacing. We handle the permit, the build, and the code inspection from start to finish.
Custom-sized dog runs and pet enclosures built around your yard layout. We size the enclosure for your dogs, select the right gauge and mesh for their size and behavior, and add bottom tension wire for diggers. Available in chain link, vinyl, or aluminum.
Full backyard perimeter fence designed to keep pets safe inside your property. We spec the right height and mesh size to contain your specific breed — including climbers, jumpers, and dogs that dig under fence lines.
One fence that does both jobs. We design pool-code-compliant enclosures that also safely contain pets — meeting NC barrier requirements while using pet-safe picket spacing and gate hardware. One install, two problems solved.
Every pool fence we install meets North Carolina residential pool barrier code. Every pet enclosure is specced for your specific dogs.
NC pool barrier code requires a minimum 48″ (4-foot) fence height on all sides of the pool. We build to this standard on every pool fence install.
All pool gates are fitted with self-closing hinges and self-latching hardware that meets NC code. Latches are installed on the pool side of the gate, out of reach of young children.
NC pool barrier code requires max 4″ spacing between pickets. Pet enclosures use smaller spacing based on your dog’s size — confirmed at estimate time.
All posts are set in concrete footings at depth for lasting stability. Shallow posts are the number-one cause of fence failure — we never cut corners on footings.
We research and pull all required pool fence permits in Wake County and city limits. We also coordinate the code inspection so you don’t have to deal with any paperwork.
For dogs that dig under fences, we install a buried bottom rail or tension wire along the fence line. Available on chain link and aluminum pet enclosures at additional cost — ask at estimate time.
No surprise fees. No missing line items. Everything on your quote shows up on your property.
We visit your yard, measure the pool perimeter or enclosure area, and walk through your material, style, and gate options. For pool fences, we confirm NC code requirements for your specific property.

Yes. North Carolina requires a barrier around any residential pool with a water depth of 24 inches or more. The barrier must meet specific code requirements including minimum height, gate hardware specs, and picket spacing. Failure to comply can result in fines and — more importantly — puts your family at serious risk. We build every pool fence to full NC code compliance.
North Carolina residential pool barrier code requires a minimum fence height of 48 inches (4 feet) on all sides of the pool. The fence must not have any gaps larger than 4 inches between pickets, and all gates must be self-closing and self-latching with the latch on the pool side of the gate. We confirm all requirements for your specific city or county before we build.
Aluminum is the most popular choice for pool barrier fences in Raleigh because it’s rust-proof, code-compliant, low-maintenance, and looks clean for decades. Most HOAs accept black aluminum. Vinyl is also an option if you want a more solid look. Chain link with the right gate hardware meets code and is the most budget-friendly choice. We’ll help you choose at the estimate.
Yes — pool fences almost always require a permit in Wake County and all Triangle cities. The permit ensures your fence meets NC pool barrier code and triggers a code inspection after installation. We handle the full permit process on every pool fence install at no extra charge, including scheduling and attending the inspection with you.
Yes — with the right design. We build combination pool and pet fences that meet NC barrier code requirements while also using pet-safe picket spacing to contain your dogs. We select gate hardware that satisfies code and is practical for daily family use. One fence, both problems solved.
For dogs that dig, we install a buried bottom tension wire or a bottom rail that runs along the ground line of the fence. This blocks the gap between the fence bottom and the soil so there’s nothing to dig under. Available on chain link and aluminum pet enclosures — just mention it at your estimate and we’ll include it in the quote.
Most pool barrier fence installs are completed in one to two days. Custom-sized pet enclosures with multiple gates typically take one day. If your install requires a permit inspection, we schedule that separately after the fence is built — usually within a few days of completion. We give you a realistic timeline in your written quote before any work begins.
