Every year  thousands of young children in the United States drown in
swimming pools. Even  more children are victims of near-drownings. Most of these
accidents occur in  the family’s backyard swimming pool. Seventy-five% of
children were last seen  by their parents within five minutes of drowning.
Drowning is called the “Silent  Killer”. There is no splash nor cry for
help.
 Drowning is the only childhood  death that can totally be prevented.
Installing a pool fence around a swimming  pool where a young child spends time
can prevent drownings. Pool fences, unlike  alarms or covers, create a barrier
between a young child and the swimming pool.  Swimming pool safety fences are
non-climbable and when the pool fence is installed  correctly it prevents a
small child from getting over it, under it, through it  or opening it.
Installing a self-closing, self-latching, key-lockable walk-through  gate adds a
layer of safety, as well as convenience. 
Swimming pool fences in Naples and Fort Myers are so effective in preventing drowning accidents that  many States including Florida have now mandated legislation requiring pool
fences be installed around  any new swimming pool being constructed. In States
such as Florida, Nevada, Arizona,  Texas and California, where swimming pools
are prevalent, swimming pool fences  have drastically cut down the number of
drownings and near drownings.
Layers  of protection around a swimming pool are important. Every parent
should know CPR  and small children should be afforded swimming lessons;
however, safety experts  agree that prevention is the best method to prevent
drownings. Pool safety fences  around a pool ensure that there is a barrier
between the child and the the edge  of the pool and therefore prevent
accidents.
 Who needs a pool fence? Swimming  pool safety fences should be installed
around every backyard swimming pool at  a home where young children live.
Additionally, grandparents’ pools should be  equipped with pool fences, as well
as anyone providing day care at their home  with a pool.
 Pool fences provide the best of both worlds – families can  enjoy their
backyard swimming pool and at the same time know their small children  are safe.
If a small child opens a door and walks out to the backyard swimming  pool he or
she is protected from accidentally falling into the pool if a pool  safety fence
has been installed. When pool fences are installed around a backyard  swimming
pool, pool safety truly is no accident.
