PET FENCE
Guardian’s Mesh Pet Fence
Guardian has spent over five years developing our specialized reinforced mesh that can withstand the scratching and jumping from a variety of pets. Our 100% polyvinyl-coated polyester mesh fence is characterized by an 11×16 strands per square inch weave, which minimizes hole size and makes clawing and stretching difficult for pets. This “Pet Mesh” is also transparent, UV resistant, and wind permeable.
The Quest For “Pet Mesh”
Removable mesh pool fencing is so convenient that people all over the U.S. wanted to use our pool fence system as a permanent or temporary solution to fence in their pets. We informed our customers that our pool fence mesh is not intended to withstand animal clawing and jumping but customers insisted on using the pool fence in this way despite our warnings. Some customers would report back to us in months, some in days, that their pets (usually dogs) had shredded the pool fence beyond function. Here at Guardian, we like challenges, and the demand for a durable “pet mesh” fueled our determination to find a mesh able to endure relentless animal torment.
At a fabric trade show in 2002, we came across a mesh that appeared promising. We tested it at a local kennel and it returned great results. This material was used in our early pet fences and proved effective against most pets. But to our dismay, there was still a percentage of animals that outmatched this fence so our search for stronger mesh continued.
In 2005 a manufacturer approached us with a video of a mesh material tolerating large and aggressive dogs. We had to try it out for ourselves but found it was not as resistant as we’d hoped. There was something unique about the stitching, however, which led us to re-engineer how we reinforce our mesh and is why Guardian currently has the best mesh pet fence on the market.
Pet Fence Poles
Guardian’s Premier Pole is the strongest removable mesh fence pole in the industry which is why we use it with all of our pet fences today. Whether your pet is 15 lbs or 150 lbs, our Premier Pole with stainless steel pins will withstand the weight from their jumping and leaning.
Every part of our pet fences is rigorously tested and continuously improved upon. The Guardian Pet Fence System is truly unique to the pet fence industry. Best of all, it’s removable and easy to store so you can take it down and put it back up whenever you want.

Our pet fence gates are self-closing and self-latching
Every Guardian Fence System comes with the option to install our patented climb-resistant, self-closing, self-latching, key-lockable mesh gate. We use the best materials and hardware on the market to bring you the highest quality pool gate in the industry.
Climb-Resistant: Guardian has engineered the only gate with NO CROSSBAR. Not having a crossbar significantly decreases the likelihood of a pet climbing over our gate because there is no place for them to gain leverage from. Instead of a crossbar, we designed our gate with trusses on each side to control gate tension. Our gate trusses are made from 6061 marine grade aluminum and can be powder coated in the same colors as our pool fence.
Self-Closing: Tru-Close hinges have long been the most reliable self-closing gate hinges on the market which is why we use them with every Guardian Gate. These hinges are tough, molded with a stainless steel torsion spring, and coated with UV-Stabilized materials to provide you with hinges that won’t bind, sag, or stain. They are also easy to adjust, requiring only a screwdriver, and come with a 100% Rust-Free for a lifetime warranty.
Self-Latching: MagnaLatch Safety Gate Latches were specifically designed for securing gates around swimming pools, yards, and child care centers. Combined with the self-closing Tru-Close hinges, the latches will magnetically latch itself shut. This latch is also key-lockable and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. MagnaLatch is the original and is still the world’s best selling magnetic latches on the market.
Our self-closing gate is so unique that it is protected by a US patent. United States Patent #5,664,769
All of Guardian’s trusses can be powder coated in the same colors as our pet fence.

LOCKING MECHANISM:
Hooks And Eyes
All Guardian Pool Fence Systems hooks and eyes are made from 304 stainless steel. BLACK TEFLON coated stainless steel hooks & eyes are used with dark-colored poles and stainless steel finished hooks and eyes are used for light-colored poles. We coat the hooks and eyes strictly for aesthetic reasons. Our Teflon color coat will not peel.
Padlocks
Our padlocks are made of solid brass with a solid brass shackle. To prevent unauthorized removal of the fence, padlocks can be used to lock adjoining fence panels, requiring a key for fence removal. The average pool fence needs between 10 and 15 padlocks.
