Piggyback & Piggyback Plus

Having gaps in your pool fence can allow access to the pool area or make your pool fence installation non ASTM compliant (gaps in your fence that are 4 or more inches wide, make your installation non ASTM compliant). For most pool owners, the whole reason for the Pool Fence in the first place, is to prevent access to the pool area. We want to ensure that all pool safety barriers are properly blocking access, no matter what the installation type is.

Our Piggyback options address gaps and awkward spaces that range anywhere from 0 to 8.25 Inches wide. If you have a gap exceeding 8.25 inches, check out our Side Panel options.

No backyard is the same and every pool fence layout is different. Some pool owners have retaining walls, glass walls, pipes, decorative framing, etc. that prevent the pool fence from getting close enough to close gaps or awkward spaces. Using our Piggyback method, the gaps are filled with custom posts.

Whether it’s a “Piggyback” or a “Piggyback Plus” these exclusive All-Safe Fence options allow the installer to address special gaps that a normal fence section cannot tackle.

Color Variations

Colors on your screen or brochure may not match the actual color of your product.

Due to the many variations in monitors, phones, and browsers, color samples and product examples may appear different on different screens. Computers and mobile devices are not all calibrated equally and color reproduction on the Internet is not precise. The same is true for printed items such as brochures and other sales literature. 

In addition, the colors of our products photograph differently under different lighting conditions. For example, photos taken in full sunlight will vary from photos taken on a cloudy or overcast day. Similarly, shadows from nearby objects can affect the color and transparency of our products. If a precise color or specific shade is important, please inspect the actual color of your product prior to installation.

Colors will vary from batch to batch.

Many of our products’ materials are not available through typical stores and vendors and therefore must be custom manufactured specifically for our use. In order to control costs and provide you with the best value possible, our raw materials are produced in large batches and can often take several months to receive. The colors of our materials can, and often do, vary slightly from batch to batch. Although we make every effort to minimize color variations, we cannot be responsible for these differences when they occur. If a precise color or specific shade is important, please inspect the actual color of your product prior to installation.

Color names are subjective and may not be what you think the color should be.

For example, we use the name “putty” to describe some of our products. Your idea of the color “putty” may be different than someone else’s idea of “putty”. In addition, products may have the same color name but may not be the exact same color. For example, we have different shades of “black”. Please do not order using color names as your only guide. If a precise color or specific shade is important, please inspect the actual color of your product prior to installation.

Inspect the actual color of your product prior to installation.

If it is important that your product be an exact color or shade, it is highly recommended that you inspect the actual product prior to its installation and address any concerns with your local independent installer. Most independent installers do not offer refunds or accept returns due to color variations.
