LIFE SAVER POOL FENCE - FRANCE

Life Saver Pool Fence has been providing baby, child, and pet safety solutions for residential swimming pools and in homes for over fifteen years. Removable residential swimming pool fence has proven to be an effective drowning prevention aid for more than thirty-five years in the United States and is now available in France, the UK and throughout Europe.

Life Saver pool fence conforms to the norm NF P 90-306

Certified by LNE November 2004

The recent changes to French Law mean that all privately owned swimming pools must have a safety device in place that conforms to AFNOR Standards prior to 1st January 2006. All properties that are available to rent or which have a pool for collective use must have a device in place by1st May 2004. All pools installed after 1st January 2004 must also be protected. Additionally, all rented properties, or properties with a pool in collective use, must also have a self closing and self locking gate as part of their fence, to prevent accidental access to the pool by children below the age of five years.

The CSC (Centre de sécurité des consommateurs) recommends the installation of a pool safety fence or barrier as it is the only passive security device. All the other approved means of security; alarms, rigid safety covers, shelters(abris) need to be actively turned on or physically closed every time the pool is vacated (even for a few minutes) and as such should be seen as supplementary to a physical barrier.

At Life Saver our attitude on swimming pool safety is rather hardcore. Accidents are unforeseeable events which cannot normally be avoided. A toddler falling into an unprotected home pool and drowning or becoming a near drowning victim is not an "accident."

Our removable safety fences are the strongest and safest on the market using the highest quality components to ensure that you, the customer, have peace of mind. Our fences and self closing gates conform fully to the AFNOR Standard NF P90 306.

Please take the time to browse our website, the links on the left will guide you seamlessly through all the information you require.

We have a network of installers covering all of France. Please either email or call and we will put you in touch with your closest dealer. Remember if you rent out your home you must have a safety device installed before 1st May 2004 or risk a draconian fine of up to €45,000.
