News, tips and inspiration from the world of pool and patio enclosures.
Water in the garden is a risk, but one that can be cleverly eliminated. We take a close look at the safety features – from convenient waist-height locking of tall segments to child-proof catches hidden within the design – that keep your pool completely under your control.
Water is irresistible, but for small children and animals it poses a serious risk. An open water surface demands constant supervision. Read about how easily a pool can be safely locked and why a solid enclosure is the most reliable prevention against an accidental fall into the water.
A quality terrace or pool enclosure is not only about your personal comfort, but also about the long-term appreciation of your property. We explain how this modern, fully functional element can immediately increase both the overall appeal and the market value of your house.
You may already have a beautiful terrace and are considering adding an enclosure, but you dread the thought of your garden being dug up. We'll take you through the entire process step by step and show that, thanks to precise planning, a premium structure can be installed cleanly, accurately and without disturbing your existing oasis of calm.
Dozens of rivets and protruding screws give a cheap structure away at first glance. We explain how concealed internal joints work, why they are stronger and more corrosion-resistant, and how the absence of external technical elements turns an enclosure into an architectural feature of the garden.
Forget protruding obstacles you keep tripping over. Modern running tracks are designed with an emphasis on absolute minimalism and barrier-free access. Read about how flat rails work – rails that blend safely into the paving and allow entire segments to slide perfectly smoothly.
Why limit yourself to the walls of the house? A modern terrace enclosure lets you open your living room straight into the garden. Find out how large-format sliding panels work – panels that disappear completely in summer and turn your terrace into a fully fledged, insulated and light-filled conservatory in autumn.
A walk-in enclosure weighs hundreds of kilograms, yet a single person slides it smoothly with one hand. We look under the bonnet of the sliding systems – polyamide wheels, sealed stainless-steel bearings, the torsional rigidity of the profiles and hidden electric motors that turn moving it into an illusion of weightlessness.
Height differences on the plot or retaining walls don't have to mean a compromise in design or function. See how atypical enclosures can be custom-designed to smoothly follow the breaks in the terrain and become a natural part of your garden architecture.
Dreading hours spent wiping down a glazed structure? Modern enclosures are designed to almost clean themselves. We'll show you how to care for the panels, aluminium profiles and sliding mechanism – regular maintenance takes just a few minutes a month.
A covered terrace protects you from rain and wind for three seasons; a conservatory is a full-fledged, heated room for the whole year. We explain the difference in construction, comfort, building demands and cost – so you can choose exactly what you expect from your new space.
An open pool is beautiful, but it means constant cleaning and waiting for warm weather. Discover three main reasons why a modern enclosure changes the way you use your garden.
Swimming as early as April and still in November? A well-sealed enclosure keeps the water temperature up to 10 °C higher than its surroundings. See how the solar effect, insulation, and a perfect seal extend your swimming season.
Low and discreet, or tall and walk-in? We compare both types of pool enclosure by appearance, comfort, thermodynamics and maintenance, and advise you on how to choose the right one for your garden.
Say goodbye to weekends spent with a net in hand. An enclosure works as a barrier against leaves, pollen, and rain, and thanks to its UV layer it cuts pool chemical consumption by up to 70%. How does it work, and how much time and money will you save?
An unobtrusive design that doesn't spoil the view, or a space where you can comfortably stand up and get changed even in the rain? We compare low, high and asymmetric pool enclosures by comfort, physics and structural demands – and help you decide which suits your lifestyle.
