Installing a new pool is exciting. Dealing with permits, inspections, and pool fence requirements isn't.
At Tri-State Fence & Deck, we install code-compliant pool fences throughout Sewell, Washington Township, Gloucester County, and surrounding South Jersey communities. If you're building a new in-ground pool or replacing an older enclosure, we make the process straightforward.
Since 2006, we have installed residential fencing throughout Gloucester, Camden, and Burlington Counties. Every project is personally overseen by Eriberto Torres Sr. or Eriberto Torres Jr., ensuring the same level of attention from estimate to installation.
For most pool installations in Sewell and Washington Township, we recommend aluminum.
Unlike wood, aluminum won't rot, warp, or require ongoing staining. Unlike steel, it won't rust when exposed to chlorine, saltwater systems, or year-round moisture. Most importantly, standard pool-grade aluminum fencing is manufactured to meet New Jersey's strict pool barrier requirements while maintaining clean sightlines around the pool.
Benefits of aluminum pool fencing include:
For homeowners who want complete backyard privacy, we also install vinyl pool fencing that provides both security and visual screening.
Choosing the right pool fence comes down to how you use your backyard, your privacy preferences, and any HOA requirements that may apply.
Aluminum remains the most popular option for pool enclosures throughout Gloucester County. The open picket design creates a secure barrier without making the yard feel enclosed. It also allows parents to maintain clear visibility of children using the pool.
Aluminum is often the best choice when:
Vinyl fencing is popular among homeowners who want their pool enclosure to double as a privacy fence.
Solid-panel vinyl fencing helps block neighboring views, reduce visual distractions, and create a more secluded backyard environment while still meeting New Jersey pool safety requirements.
Vinyl may be the better choice when:
Pool fence pricing depends on several factors, including total linear footage, fence material selection, number of gates required and site grading conditions. The permit requirements and HOA approval requirements may also influence the price.
Every pool layout is different, which is why we provide written on-site estimates rather than generic online pricing.
During your consultation, we'll measure the pool area, review local code requirements, discuss material options, and provide a clear proposal outlining exactly what is included.
No hidden fees. No surprise add-ons after installation begins.
Before a pool can pass final inspection, the enclosure must meet New Jersey pool barrier regulations.
The requirements most commonly reviewed during inspection include:
These standards are based on New Jersey's adoption of the International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC). Specifically, inspectors reference Section 305 of the NJ ISPSC, which establishes the state's pool barrier requirements for residential swimming pools.
For homeowners who want to review the requirements themselves, you can view the official code language in the NJ ISPSC 2018 Section 305 and find an additional homeowner-friendly summary through PoolGuard's New Jersey pool fence code guide.
The good news? You don't need to memorize any of these requirements. We design and install every pool enclosure to meet applicable code requirements before the inspector arrives.
Pool fence permits can feel overwhelming for homeowners, especially when they are already coordinating pool construction, landscaping, and other outdoor improvements.
That's why Tri-State handles the process for you.
For homeowners in Washington Township and surrounding Gloucester County communities, we assist with:
Washington Township's Planning and Zoning Department oversees many of the local zoning requirements that may apply to pool and fence projects. Homeowners can review township planning and zoning information on the Washington Township Planning & Zoning Department website, but most clients prefer that we handle the process on their behalf.

Before any digging begins, we also coordinate utility marking through NJ One Call. This state-required service helps identify underground utility lines before excavation begins, protecting your property and ensuring compliance with New Jersey excavation laws.
Instead of making multiple trips to the township office, you have one point of contact from start to finish.
A pool fence is only as effective as the gate that secures it.
While fence panels provide the barrier around your pool, the gate is the most frequently used part of the entire enclosure. That's why New Jersey pool codes place specific requirements on pool gate hardware, including self-closing and self-latching mechanisms designed to help prevent unsupervised access.
Every pool gate we install is designed to meet applicable code requirements and operate reliably for years of everyday use.
When your pool fence is installed correctly from the start, you can focus on enjoying your backyard—not worrying about whether the gate will pass inspection.
A pool fence is only as good as the installation behind it. We focus on building an enclosure that remains secure, level, and code-compliant for years to come.
Some contractors focus on volume. We focus on getting every installation right — code-compliant, inspection-ready, and built to look like it belongs on the property.
