Hey mate, I totally get where you’re coming from — I had the same doubts before I finally took the plunge (pun intended ). I installed glass pool fencing about a year ago, and honestly, I couldn’t be happier. The view is completely unobstructed, it makes the whole area look more spacious, and it’s surprisingly easy to clean — I just wipe it down with a bit of glass cleaner once a week. If you get tough weather, no worries: when installed properly, the glass panels are super sturdy and can handle wind and rain without any issue. For me, safety was the biggest concern, but the tempered glass used in these fences is really strong and built to Australian standards. If you want to check out some solid examples and info about different glass fencing options, have a look here https://fullflexfencing.au/services/glass-pool-fencing/ that’s actually where I got most of my info before deciding. Hope it helps!
