Raleigh FAQ
Does my existing backyard fence count?
Only if it meets all Appendix AG standards: 48 inches tall, under 4-inch gaps, no climbable horizontal members, and self-closing/self-latching gates. Most existing privacy fences comply; most split-rail and picket fences do not.
Do I need a fence for my hot tub?
No, if you install a listed ASTM F1346 safety cover. Without the cover, a hot tub holding over 24 inches of water requires the same barrier as a pool.
