Review: Excellent Gate for my Pool Area - TL;DR: This is an excellent gate and makes access to your pool really convenient. Installation is not trivial. If you're not handy, have a professional install it for you. Always make sure the self closing part of the gate is tight and assure that the gate closes. When we purchased our house, the safety fencing that was already installed was in great shape, but very hard to open because you had to pull a single section out of the ground every time you wanted to pass through it. It was so tightly fitting that my wife couldn't really open it without help. And when it was already open, you had to leave it open to get back through it again on your way back, which meant that for that time, our toddler had access to the pool. None of this was ideal. We needed a gate. After doing a lot of research I found this one and bit the bullet and ordered it. The price seemed high, but it is honestly a very well constructed and quality product, and I was pretty happy when it arrived. However, installation should be done by someone handy and with the tools to drill into the pool deck or flooring where your gate is. I'm pretty handy, but I called over my dad, who's very comfortable with this kind of thing, and we tackled it together. We had to cut off a section of the existing fencing in the middle where we wanted the gate installed. I drilled holes for this gate's 'posts' into our pavers. We attached those posts as instructed to the existing fencing and then put the rest of it together. The instructions are pretty good, but can be a bit confusing at parts, and the quality of the parts are excellent. One year later and this gate is still functioning great. The self latching parts of the gate will need adjustment from time to time, so keep a flat head handy to tighten it over the first month or two. There's two hinges with springs that need to be turned to adjust how quickly you want it to pull itself closed. I turned those suckers up pretty high so they would close quickly behind us and not accidentally close too softly to latch shut. I would love to find an outdoor chime that 'dings' whenever the door is opened, but haven't found one yet. IMPORTANT / SERIOUS NOTE... The most important thing for anyone installing a gate is making sure that it's full proof, and doesn't fail to latch. It needs to ALWAYS latch behind you, and you need to be sure of it closing every time. A few years back we had very good friends who lost their 2 year old son to a pool drowning. They were good people who were never neglectful of their child and kept a very close watch on him. They were proof that tragedies like this can happen to anyone. They turned their back for a few seconds and that's all it took. Please, make sure you install this gate and fencing properly and securely, and always make sure the gate latches behind you securely. UPDATE: 2 years later and this thing is still working perfectly. Couldn't be happier with it. Review: Easy enough gate for the pool fence - This is very easy to install, and the fence is good and sturdy. I bought 10 sections of fence (as well as the gate) and from first getting the product out the box to having the gate leveled and adjusted took about 8 hours. That included the time to actually read the instructions and plan out the fence route. The drilling base is essential, and also sturdy. The bullseye system and leveling bolts work fine, there are two bushings in it so the drill bit rotates freely, and you need to put some angle on the fence posts, depending on the shape of your pool. If you have a square pool, then you could get by without the base, but if you have some curved shape to your pool, then you set the posts at a slight tilt in order to get the right tension on the posts. I would not want to try doing that drilling without the guide. You need an 18" bit in order to get deep enough into the pool deck with the drilling guide. The gate was probably the most complicated bit of the installation, but still easy enough to do. Even with buying a Bosch rotary drill specifically for this job, 18" long 5/8" drill bit and the guide base I paid about a quarter of what I got quoted for this job. ## Features - Easy-to-install, do-it-yourself gate kit for use with the Pool Fence DIY safety system; helps keep kids safe from accidental falls into your pool - 2-foot walk-through opening and recommend height of 4 feet. 4' Tall X 36" Wide - Aluminum, powder-coated square stock; sturdy double-truss uprights; industrial-strength mesh - Ultra-reliable magnetic gate latch and self-closing gate hinges.

Those are the dimensions of the box the gate opening actually measures 26 5/8" total with the uprights 32 5/8, and is 4' tall. **Q: If i purchase the gate and the fence, what else exactly is necessary to set the pool safety fence up so that it is very sturdy and impenetrable?** A: If you are installing the fence in a cement decking I highly recommend the Pool fence Drill guide and a good Hammer Drill ( I bought a Bosch Bulldog 11255) but you can rent one too. I had to mark and drill 75 holes and did it in a little over a day about 10-12 hours. The fence came out great and I've had a lot of compliments. **Q: Does this gate latch have an alarm to alert you when it is open?** A: No alarm **Q: Can this gate be key locked?** A: The gates comes with the Magna Latch by D&D Tech, which is key lockable. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Gate for my Pool Area *by S***G on March 4, 2017* TL;DR: This is an excellent gate and makes access to your pool really convenient.

The guy that put the video on the website for instructions said it really well. It takes a little to follow the instructions as they are a little - not really confusing, but different. After that it is an easy install. Get a good hammer- drill and a good bit and it will go well for you. I got the drill guide as well And I think it helped pretty good. Super easy to install and take down. The gate is a little tricky but just follow the supplied directions. Some of it takes some Common sense. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pool Fence DIY by Life Saver Self-Closing Gate Kit, Black (Pack of 1) - Pool Fence DIY by Life Saver Fencing Section Kit, 4 x 12-Feet, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/5722951-self-closing-gate-kit](https://www.desertcart.in/products/5722951-self-closing-gate-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
