Pool Gates Melbourne

The gate is the part of a pool fence that fails first — a hinge that stops closing, a latch that gets bumped out of adjustment. Kelgar supplies and fits compliant, self-closing pool gates to match glass, aluminium or blade fencing.

Compliant Pool Gates for Melbourne Pools

A pool fence is only as safe as its gate. Every gate in a pool barrier needs to close on its own, latch on its own, and keep the release mechanism out of a small child’s reach — regardless of how good the fencing either side of it looks.

Kelgar fits gates to match whatever fencing is already installed or being installed: glass gates with polished hinges for a frameless run, aluminium gates matched to picket or flat-top fencing, or a standalone gate replacement on an existing fence that’s due for new hardware.

Every gate is set up and tested on site — not just fitted and left — so it’s closing and latching correctly before we leave.

Gate Options to Match Your Fence

Glass Pool Gates

A glass gate panel with polished hinges and a discreet latch, keeping the same open sightline as frameless or semi-frameless fencing.

Aluminium Pool Gates

A powder-coated aluminium gate matched to flat-top or picket fencing, built to the same compliant spacing as the fence line.

Gate Hardware We Fit

Hardware is where most non-compliant pool gates fall down over time, so it’s the part we pay closest attention to.

Self-closing hinges, tension-adjustable so the gate swings shut reliably from any position
Self-latching mechanisms positioned to the required release height
Stainless steel or powder-coated finishes to match the fence
Gate frames sized and hung to suit glass, aluminium or blade panels
Adjustable closers for gates on sloped or uneven paving

Our Gate Installation Process

A straightforward process from first enquiry to a finished fence — no surprises partway through.

Assess the Existing Fence

We check what fencing type and gate size you’re working with, and what’s actually wrong if it’s a replacement.

Confirm Hardware & Fit

Hinge, latch and frame options are confirmed to match the fence and open in the right direction.

Fit & Adjust

The gate is hung, hinge tension set, and the latch aligned to close from any position.

Test On Site

Self-closing and self-latching function is tested before we leave, not just visually checked.

How Much Do Pool Gates Cost?

Gate pricing depends on whether it’s a new gate as part of a full fence installation, or a standalone replacement on an existing fence, along with the gate type and hardware involved. We confirm an exact figure during a free onsite visit rather than a phone estimate.

Pool Gate Requirements in Victoria

Pool gates carry some of the strictest requirements in the whole barrier — because a faulty gate defeats the purpose of the fence around it.

Kelgar does not provide pool barrier inspections or compliance certification.

Self-Closing

Gates must close fully under their own hinge tension from any open position.

Self-Latching

The latch must engage automatically as the gate closes.

Release Height

The latch release should be positioned out of small children’s reach.

Opens Outward

Gates should open away from the pool, not over it.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It's rare to come across someone like Garry these days. He was punctual, friendly, and highly professional throughout the entire job. When things weren't straightforward, he was resourceful and found practical solutions without any fuss. What really stood out was his genuine commitment to doing quality work. Garry even said he wanted to "sleep easy" knowing he had done a good job, and that level of pride and integrity is hard to find. I fully recommend Garry to anyone looking for reliable, honest, and high-quality service. One of the best tradespeople I've ever dealt with.  Thank you so much.

Pool Gates FAQs

Can you just replace my gate without redoing the whole fence?

Yes — a gate and hardware replacement on an otherwise sound fence is a common, standalone job.

My gate doesn't close properly — is that a repair or a new gate?

Often it’s a hinge adjustment or a worn latch rather than a full replacement. See our Pool Fence Repairs page, or get in touch and we’ll assess it.

Do you match gates to existing fencing from another installer?

In most cases yes, particularly for aluminium. We’ll confirm compatibility during the quote.

How much does a new pool gate cost?

It depends on the gate type and whether hardware needs replacing too. We’ll give you an exact figure after assessing the fence, not a phone estimate.

How long does a gate replacement take?

Most standalone gate replacements are completed within a day.
