The 6-foot high black aluminum fence was installed by local fencing company Beitzell Fence. It has tight spacing with 1.5 inch spacing between the pickets instead of the standard 4 inch -- while 4 inches of space is usually fine for fences like these, the city of Alexandria required the tight spacing.

Along with the fence, a double access gate and a single gate for pedestrians was installed. Beitzell Fence was able to make it maintenance free by coating it with a powder that prevents cracking, rusting, or peeling caused by the weather.   

When all was said and done, this swimming pool ended up with 408 feet of aluminum fence to protect its fun-loving and relaxing patrons. Now residents can enjoy the last weeks of summer with added security.
