The 1.8 boundary wall can have the 900mm NCz at any part of the wall in NSW. if its under the latest Australian Standard, a 1.8m boundary fence can be climbable from the outside ( ie neighbours side). There is also a NCZ of 900 from the top of the boundary fence. Re: Website with best practical info on pool fencing safety? 11May 18, 2014 12:12 pm I've got a question about a boundary fence if the fence is meant to be 1.8m high, how is it measured? is it measured from the ground level? from the top of the pool coping? from the bottom of the fence? the reason I'm asking is 1) my pool is sticking out by 300mm above the ground 2) I'd like to build a stone wall along the boundary fence 450mm high, fill it up with soil and plant some soft plants that can't be climbable Something like that but with stacked stone http://foundandfreecottage.com/wp-conte ... -Fence.jpg would this be considered legal, or should I raise the fence to be 2250 (1800 +450)? Re: Website with best practical info on pool fencing safety? 12May 20, 2014 9:44 pm Top of fence to bottom needs to be 1.8 the retained garden doesn't form part of this measurement, Re: Website with best practical info on pool fencing safety? 13Nov 19, 2018 9:38 pm Sorry to resurrect an old topic: In Victoria, if a boundary fence is closer than 500mm to the pool coping tiles/deck edge, then the fence must be 1.8 metres higher than the deck level, otherwise it it's further than 500mm from the pool, it must be at least 1.8 metres higher than ground level. Either way, must have non climbable zone of 900mm at top, and no footholds etc of 10mm or more. Is that correct? Is the magic figure I've marked in bold 500mm the correct minimum distance that the pool has to be away from the boundary fence if the boundary fence is only 1.9 metres high? Cheers.
