The site and the problem
The open pool collected leaves and dust, adding to routine cleaning. The homeowner wanted cover that could be moved away for swimming without a tall structure dominating the garden.

What the client needed
- Limit leaves and garden debris entering the water.
- Keep the enclosure low beside the garden.
- Allow the sections to slide open for pool access.
Design and installation approach
The arched sections follow the pool footprint and slide along dedicated tracks. Clear panels allow light through while the white frame coordinates with the surrounding setting.
When closed, the cover reduces the pool’s direct exposure to falling debris. The 0.8m maximum height describes a low cover, rather than a room-height pool enclosure.
The result
The pool now has movable cover that can be closed between uses and opened for swimming. The low profile preserves the garden outlook.
