Here is a practical size guide for tempered glass pool fences commonly used in North America (including Canada/Quebec). These sizes reflect typical manufacturing standards and pool safety codes.

Tempered Glass Pool Fence – Size Guide

1. Glass Thickness (Most Important for Safety)

Fence Type	Recommended Thickness
Framed glass fence	8–10 mm
Semi-frameless fence	10 mm
Frameless glass fence	12 mm (½ inch)

12 mm tempered glass is the industry standard for frameless pool fences because it provides the rigidity needed without metal framing.
Tempered glass is about 5–6× stronger than regular glass and breaks into small blunt pieces if shattered.

2. Standard Glass Panel Heights

Height	Metric	Typical Use
36 in	914 mm	Decorative / low barriers
42 in	1067 mm	Railings
48 in	1219 mm	Standard pool fence height
60 in	1524 mm	High safety areas

Most building codes require minimum 48 in (1.2 m) height around pools to prevent children from climbing over.

Some jurisdictions recommend 1.5 m (5 ft) or higher depending on location and exposure.

3. Standard Panel Widths

Glass panels come in multiple widths depending on the layout.

Typical ranges:

Width	Metric
24 in	610 mm
30 in	762 mm
36 in	914 mm
42 in	1067 mm
48 in	1219 mm
60–65 in	1524–1650 mm (max typical span)

Manufacturers generally limit glass fence panels to 60–65 inches wide for structural stability.

4. Gap / Spacing Requirements

Component	Maximum Gap
Between glass panels	≤ 4 in (100 mm)
Between glass and ground	≤ 4 in (100 mm)

These limits prevent children from passing through the fence.

5. Pool Glass Gate Size

Typical gate specs:

Feature	Size
Gate width	30–36 in (760–915 mm)
Gate thickness	8–10 mm tempered
Height	Same as fence (usually 48 in)
Hardware	Self-closing hinges + latch

Self-closing gates are normally required by pool safety codes.

6. Typical Frameless Glass Panel Specification

Example of a standard panel used in many pool fence systems:

Height: 48 in (1219 mm)
Thickness: 12 mm tempered glass
Width: 36–60 in
Edge finish: polished safety edges
Mounting: stainless steel spigots or base channel

7. Optional Premium Upgrade

Some high-end installations use:

Type	Thickness
Laminated tempered glass	6+6 mm (12 mm total)
Heavy-duty panels	15 mm

This provides extra impact resistance and post-breakage retention.

✅ Quick Recommendation (Most Popular Setup)

Glass: 12 mm tempered
Height: 48 in (1219 mm)
Panel width: 36–48 in
Gap: ≤ 100 mm

This configuration works for most frameless residential pool fences.
