Case Study: Five Star Glass Installs a Premium Frameless Glass Pool Security Fence
When the owners of this beautiful home in Church Point, NSW, decided to upgrade their outdoor entertaining area, they wanted a swimming pool fence that delivered uncompromising safety while maintaining the stunning visual appeal of their backyard. With premium white limestone paving surrounding the pool and picturesque views beyond, preserving open sightlines was just as important as meeting Australian pool safety regulations.
To achieve the perfect balance of safety, durability and modern design, the homeowners engaged Five Star Glass to supply and install a custom frameless glass pool security fence using premium toughened safety glass and high-quality Polaris marine-grade hardware.
The completed installation provides a sleek architectural finish that complements the property’s contemporary style while delivering exceptional long-term performance in the coastal environment.
The homeowners wanted a premium pool fencing solution that would seamlessly integrate with their newly completed outdoor entertaining area.
They were looking for a fence that would:
Following an onsite consultation and detailed site measurements, Five Star Glass recommended a custom frameless glass pool fencing system featuring 12mm toughened safety glass and marine-grade Polaris hardware.

The frameless pool fence was constructed using premium toughened safety glass panels measuring 1200mm high and 12mm thick.
Every panel was manufactured to Australian Standards, ensuring outstanding structural strength, safety and durability.
Toughened safety glass undergoes a specialised heat treatment process that significantly increases its strength compared with standard glass. In the unlikely event of breakage, the glass is designed to fragment into small blunt pieces, reducing the risk of injury.
The frameless design allows the beauty of the swimming pool and surrounding outdoor area to remain the focal point while providing a virtually invisible safety barrier.
The crystal-clear glass also maximises natural light and creates a greater sense of space throughout the entertaining area.
To securely support the frameless glass panels, Five Star Glass installed premium Polaris marine-grade stainless steel Duplex 2205 surface mount spigots.
These high-performance spigots are specifically engineered for use with 12mm toughened safety glass and provide exceptional strength while maintaining a clean, minimalist appearance.
Manufactured from Duplex 2205 marine-grade stainless steel, the spigots offer outstanding resistance to corrosion, making them ideal for coastal properties such as this Church Point home where exposure to salt air and moisture is a constant consideration.
The polished stainless steel finish complements the bright white limestone paving, creating a timeless appearance that blends perfectly with the home’s contemporary architecture.
Each surface mount spigot was carefully fixed into the limestone paving using precision installation techniques to ensure maximum structural integrity and long-term reliability.
Every compliant swimming pool fence requires a reliable self-closing gate to maintain safety and compliance.
For this installation, Five Star Glass fitted premium Polaris hinges to the frameless glass swimming pool gate.
These high-quality hinges provide smooth operation while ensuring the gate automatically closes and latches after every use.
The self-closing mechanism helps maintain pool safety compliance while providing homeowners with peace of mind that the swimming pool remains securely enclosed.
The frameless gate integrates perfectly with the surrounding glass panels, preserving the elegant uninterrupted appearance of the entire fencing system.
Installing frameless glass pool fencing requires precision workmanship and meticulous planning.
Before installation commenced, the Five Star Glass team carefully assessed the levels of the white limestone paving, confirmed every measurement and accurately positioned each surface mount spigot.
Once the spigots had been securely fixed into the paving, each glass panel was professionally installed, levelled and aligned to achieve consistent spacing and flawless sightlines throughout the pool enclosure.
Every aspect of the installation was completed with exceptional attention to detail, ensuring the finished fence delivered both superior performance and premium aesthetics.
The completed frameless glass pool fence transformed the outdoor entertaining area while providing a safe and compliant swimming pool enclosure.
The transparent 12mm toughened safety glass creates unobstructed views across the pool and surrounding gardens, allowing the premium landscaping and white limestone paving to remain the centrepiece of the backyard.
The Polaris Duplex 2205 marine-grade stainless steel spigots provide exceptional durability while adding a refined contemporary finish that perfectly complements the property’s architecture.
Combined with the premium Polaris self-closing gate hinges, the installation delivers an elegant, low-maintenance and long-lasting pool fencing solution designed to perform for many years.
The homeowners were delighted with the completed project, praising the outstanding workmanship, attention to detail and the dramatic improvement to the appearance of their outdoor entertaining space.
