Universal City FAQ
Can my house wall count as part of the barrier?
Yes, but doors from the house to the pool area must have audible alarms or the pool must have a powered safety cover.
Does chain-link work as a pool fence?
Chain-link meshes must meet specific opening limits; slats or finer mesh are often required so a 4-inch sphere cannot pass.
