Fence for pool

[jeepinmatt]

My parents are filling up their above ground pool and since my nearly 3 year old is a major climber, we need to put up a fence or something around it. Anybody got any experience or advice? Not looking for anything fancy, and non-permanent is probably good too.

Since he is your boy , how about a line of square hay bales! I mean two bales high they will be over your head and double his height then next year burn em

IME, anything without electric won't stop a 3 yr old .....
I'd go with vinyl or plastic fence panels .... hopefully slick enough he can't get a grip on it.
All the big box hardwares will have them.

Is this above ground pool below grade anywhere?

No. Full above ground on flat ground.

You need the walls taller?

My wife thinks he can climb the pool walls because of the support strap going around it.

razor wire around the top edge?

You HAVE to be in order to see what's on the middle shelf of the fridge

Ok so the temporary, inexpensive and trailer park fix is east. Sch80 PVC to extend the "legs" taller. Secure with heavy duty zip ties. Add that heavy plastic fence stuff on the e tended legs. Attach with zip ties

I'd probably look at something like this and still do a water surface alarm...

I am,just amazed I did a double take thinking those rocks would be fun to climb as a three year old. I was truly worried for your family....I mean the little persons....or the kid
