FENCING THE ENTRANCE
Fencing And Pool Barriers For The Entrance,
Including Holiday And Strata Properties
Glass and aluminium pool fencing, Colorbond, slat and tubular fencing installed across The Entrance, for homes, rentals and multi-dwelling properties.
Fencing For The Entrance Homes, Rentals And Unit Blocks
The Entrance packs a lot into a small area. It is barely one and a half square kilometres between Tuggerah Lake and the ocean, and a big share of it is holiday accommodation, unit blocks and investment properties rather than owner-occupied houses.
That changes the fencing brief. On a holiday or multi-dwelling property the fence is not just a boundary, it is a liability, and for anything with a pool it is a legal barrier that has to keep passing inspection year after year.
It is also a salt-exposed site on both sides, which rules out some materials and finishes before you even start.
We install glass and aluminium pool fencing, Colorbond, aluminium slat, aluminium tubular, timber and security fencing across The Entrance, plus gates, and we work with owners, agents and strata as well as homeowners.
We also fence Bateau Bay, Berkeley Vale, Tuggerah and other suburbs across the Central Coast.

Our The Entrance Fencing Process
Planning Around Guests, Owners And Inspection Dates
On a let or strata property the timing matters as much as the fence. Guests may be booked in, an owner or a committee may need to approve the spend, and an inspection date may already be set.
The two questions worth settling early are when the site can actually be worked on, and whether the existing barrier can be brought up to standard or needs replacing.
Whether it is a boundary fence, a privacy screen or a pool barrier, you get a fixed price in writing you can hand to an owner or a meeting, and one point of contact from the first call through to handover.
Clear Fencing From Quote To Installation
- We talk through the property type, who signs off and any inspection date you are working to
- We walk the line and check levels, gate positions and the non-climbable zone around the pool
- We recommend materials and finishes that suit a salt-exposed site, and give you the options side by side
- We give you a fixed price in writing you can pass to an owner, agent or committee
- We set out, dig the footings, then install the panels, spigots and gates
- We check that the gate self-closes and self-latches from any open position, and clear the site
The Entrance Fencing FAQs
Councils are required to inspect pools associated with tourist and visitor accommodation and multi-occupancy developments at three-year intervals. That is different from an ordinary home, where an inspection is generally tied to sale or lease. Short-term rental accommodation and serviced apartments fall inside the tourist and visitor accommodation definition.
Multi-occupancy means a property with more than two dwellings, and those properties fall into the same three-yearly inspection cycle as tourist and visitor accommodation. The physical barrier requirements are the same ones that apply to any NSW pool.
A pool barrier in NSW must be at least 1.2 metres high measured from finished ground level. Where a boundary fence forms part of the barrier it must be at least 1.8 metres, and nothing climbable can sit within the 90 centimetre non-climbable zone.
The three common ones are a gate that no longer self-closes and self-latches from any open position, furniture or pots left inside the 90 centimetre non-climbable zone, and planting that has grown into it. Replacing a tired barrier outright is usually a glass pool fencing or aluminium pool fencing job. On a let property those tend to appear between inspections rather than at handover, so they are worth checking before the inspector does.
Yes. We quote in writing so it can go to an owner, a committee or a managing agent, and we can work around guest bookings where a property is being let.
Colorbond fencing is the most common choice because it does not rot, warp or need painting. aluminium slat fencing and aluminium tubular fencing handle salt well and keep an outlook open, timber fencing still suits some older properties, and around a pool glass pool fencing and aluminium pool fencing both meet the current NSW requirements. The suburb sits between the lake and the ocean, so salt-laden air comes off both sides and is hard on cheaper finishes and on timber at ground level.
