You build a beautiful pool in your back yard. Your doors to the yard are
self-closing/self-latching and you have locks on them. You keep your eyes on your children all of
the time. Why do you need a pool fence? It ruins the view.
This is a very common question. Parents and Grandparents and others ask this
question a lot.
The answer is simple:
Pool Fences help save lives!

tragedy of losing a child in your pool is life changing. A Pool Fence is a VERY important part of the
layers of protection….If the Adult Supervision fails, the door lock fails, the
training fails…..the pool fence will give you more time to find that little
one, stop an older one and keep critters out!

I asked about whether it would have one or two commercial businesses on the ground floor. No response. At least the guy wasn't rude, just unresponsive.
