Swimming Pool Barrier Inspection AS1926 - 1986
by Brent Mason, from the Community
Use this AS1926-1986 swimming pool barrier inspection checklist to assess pre-1/09/2008 pools for safety compliance. The template guides inspectors through key requirements including fence height of at least 1200mm, gaps under 100mm, bottom clearance no more than 100mm, and proper maintenance of fences and gates. It covers self-closing, self-latching gates, correct latch height or shielded placement, outward-opening gates, boundary fence specifications, and ensuring the area is free of climbable objects. The checklist also includes CPR signage visibility, options for doors and windows as part of the barrier (restricted openings or screening), and recording inspection outcomes, certificates, public safety risks, directives, comments, and officer sign-off.
