Aluminium Pool Fencing

Sentrel's vertical cable pool fencing is unlike anything else on the market. Our Designex Best New Product–winning design uses 316 marine-grade stainless steel yachting wire in powder-coated aluminium frames — creating a fence that's virtually invisible while remaining fully compliant with Australian safety standards.

Unlike glass, our fences never get dirty, never need polishing, and allow full airflow around your pool area. Vertical cables give children no horizontal footholds to climb, unlike horizontal wire systems. Every panel is pre-assembled at our factory and arrives ready to install.

◆ Flagship System

Aluminium Balustrade

Our flagship balustrade system combines the elegance of vertical stainless steel cables with the durability of powder-coated aluminium frames. Whether it's a coastal deck, a multi-level balcony, or an internal staircase, every panel is custom-manufactured to your exact measurements and delivered pre-assembled.

Spans of up to 3 metres between structural supports create wide, uninterrupted views. Choose from a full range of powder coat colours and optional aluminium handrails to match your architectural style. Matching stair panels and custom gates are available in any configuration.

Important: Balustrades must be fixed to a structurally sound substrate. Please ensure your builder or engineer has specified appropriate fixings for your application.
