Special requirements for swimming pool fences in the Town of Lakeshore exist, with the most important items being the use of self-closing hinges on gates, minimum height of 4ft, and opening sizes cannot allow a 4 in ball to pass through. We recommend hiring a competant installer for the project, however if you plan on DIY - then it is our recommendation that you consider D & D Technologies Truclose hinges to fufill the self-closing requirement.
