Certification and council rules in Newcastle
Newcastle combines a coastal salt environment with a large stock of older housing on small inner-suburban lots. Older properties frequently have boundary fences that predate current barrier expectations — timber palings with horizontal rails on the neighbour's side are climbable, and that is a compliance problem the pool owner inherits without controlling the fence. Combined with coastal corrosion on gate hardware, Newcastle barriers fail on things that were never part of the pool build.
