Aluminum pool fencing and deck railing in Terrebonne, QC

Project presentation

Terrebonne is one of the most dynamic cities in Lanaudière, with sustained residential growth over the past several years. This homeowner chose the Contemporary 3000 in light black for two applications: a pool fence featuring tempered glass panels and an access gate with an integrated latch, as well as a railing on the raised composite wood deck overlooking the backyard. This 2023 project, documented in six photos, illustrates the versatility of the Aluminium Distinction system within a single residential setting.

The six photos demonstrate the consistency of the installation throughout the property. Of particular note are the high-quality finish of the pool gate—from the latch to the glass clip—and the clean lines of the terrace railing’s anchors.

Project features

Pool enclosure with tempered glass panels and a latch-style door

The pool enclosure is constructed of tempered glass panels held in place by black aluminum posts. The access door, shown in close-up, is equipped with a matte black safety latch and a brushed stainless steel plate—a mechanism that closes automatically and meets the requirements of the Quebec Building Code for pool enclosures. The transparency of the glass preserves the view of the pool from the deck and the interior of the house.

Perimeter railing on a raised composite wood deck

The raised composite-wood deck is equipped with a perimeter railing featuring glass panels and black aluminum posts anchored into the composite structure. The staircase connecting the deck to the pool deck is also part of this same structure, ensuring aesthetic continuity between the two levels.

Aesthetic consistency between the fence and the railing

Using the same black Contemporary 3000 profile for both installations—the pool fence and the deck railing—creates a unified visual language throughout the entire property. The matte black of the posts complements both the warm composite wood of the deck and the limestone pavers surrounding the pool.

Resistance to Lanaudière freeze-thaw cycles

Lanaudière experiences harsh winters with extreme temperature fluctuations. Aluminium Distinction’s powder-coated extruded aluminum is designed to withstand these temperature cycles without warping or cracking, making it a particularly well-suited choice for Quebec’s climate.

Results

This project in Terrebonne is a comprehensive solution that combines safety, aesthetics, and durability. The homeowner can enjoy their pool and deck year-round, confident that the installation will still look just as beautiful ten years from now.
