Germiston, Gauteng, South Africa, 20th Jan 2026 – Designer Pool Covers, a national provider of safety and aesthetic pool cover solutions, has completed a comprehensive rebuild of its digital platforms, unveiling an updated web presence that reflects its evolving product range and regional footprint across Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. The rebuilt websites are designed to provide a clearer overview of the company’s solutions, technical details and regional availability, while aligning brand presentation across all locations.​

Company overview

Designer Pool Covers specialises in pool cover solutions focused on safety, durability and visual integration with residential and commercial pool environments. The company’s range spans manually operated, semi-automatic and fully automated systems, developed to accommodate a variety of pool sizes, shapes and installation contexts.​

Operating across multiple provinces, Designer Pool Covers works with homeowners, property managers, architects and pool contractors seeking structured approaches to pool safety and surface coverage. Its products are used in settings where child and pet safety, water protection and long-term material performance are central considerations.​

Scope of the website rebuild

The new websites present Designer Pool Covers’ portfolio in a more structured format, giving distinct space to core product categories such as solid safety covers, slatted deck-style covers and automated track-based systems. Information about product configuration, materials and mechanisms is now surfaced more prominently to support technical comparison and project planning.​

The rebuild aligns content, layout and terminology across regions, creating a consistent framework through which visitors can explore solutions relevant to specific locations. Navigation reflects the company’s intention to make specifications, product descriptions and regional context more accessible to users who are evaluating pool cover options.​

Emphasis on safety-focused cover systems

One of the central themes highlighted in the updated online presence is the use of structural reinforcement in safety cover systems. Designer Pool Covers’ pet and child safety covers incorporate aluminum battens that support the cover surface, creating a rigid barrier designed to reduce the risk associated with open water around pools.​

These battens are secured to a PVC cover with a 300 mm overlap and anchored around the pool, with tension applied using a ratchet system. This configuration is presented on the website as part of the company’s approach to combining fabric-based pool coverage with load-bearing reinforcement, reflecting an emphasis on practical safety characteristics.​

Materials and construction details

The updated content places attention on the materials used in the company’s product range, including PVC and polycarbonate elements in different systems. The PVC covers are described as forming the primary surface in safety cover applications, while the aluminum battens function as internal supports that work in combination with anchoring hardware.​

For its PoolDeck-style slatted covers, Designer Pool Covers uses slats manufactured from either polycarbonate or PVC, depending on project requirements and aesthetic preferences. These slats interlock to form a rigid surface that spans the pool, creating a deck-like visual effect while acting as a physical barrier over the water.​

PoolDeck slatted cover systems

The PoolDeck slatted cover range is positioned on the website as a custom-made solution intended to fit a wide variety of pool sizes and shapes. The slats are configured to follow the pool’s geometry, enabling coverage of both standard rectangular pools and more complex or freeform designs.​

These systems are described as easy to install and operate, with opening and closing functions controlled via a button or key mechanism. This approach allows the cover to be deployed or retracted in a controlled manner, without manual folding or extensive handling of large fabric surfaces.​

Functional and aesthetic considerations

In the updated online materials, Designer Pool Covers presents its PoolDeck slatted covers as combining functional coverage with an emphasis on visual integration. The deck-like appearance is framed as an option for those seeking a more architectural or integrated look around the pool area, distinct from traditional tarp-style covers.​

The slatted systems are also associated with energy-related benefits, as they can help limit heat loss and evaporation from the pool surface. By providing a more insulated barrier between water and air, these covers may contribute to more consistent water temperature and reduced exposure to environmental elements.​

Automated track-based cover technology

The rebuilt website also presents information on a hydraulic “direct drive” motor system that opens and closes certain cover models. This motor runs within a track system that guides the movement of the cover along the pool’s length, providing a structured path for deployment and retraction.​

The hydraulic drive is described as an option for projects where a high level of automation and safety is required, with the system positioned as an “ultimate safety cover” solution in the company’s product hierarchy. The control hardware is supported by a Power Pack, which can be located away from the pool area to reduce visual clutter and keep key components in a more protected environment.​

Operational convenience and storage

In addition to structural and mechanical characteristics, the company’s updated web content references considerations such as removal and storage of cover systems. The aluminum batten safety covers, for example, are described as designed for relatively easy removal when access to the full pool is required.​

Once removed, these covers can be stored in a compact form, supporting seasonal use patterns or temporary uncovering for events and maintenance. This operational flexibility is presented as part of the practical aspects of living with a safety cover over extended periods.​

Regional focus and service context

The websites reflect Designer Pool Covers’ geographic focus on key South African urban centres, including Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. This regional scope aligns with the company’s installed base and service networks, which support consultation, measurement and installation activities around pool environments.​

By rebuilding the sites, the organisation has created a more unified view of its presence across these regions, while still signalling local availability and context. The content structure supports visitors who are comparing cover types while also considering local climate conditions, architectural styles and service logistics.​

Positioning within the pool safety landscape

Within the broader pool safety and cover market, Designer Pool Covers’ refreshed digital presence underscores its focus on combining engineered hardware with surface materials tailored to South African conditions. The use of aluminum battens, PVC fabrics, polycarbonate or PVC slats and hydraulic drive mechanisms is presented as part of a toolkit for addressing diverse residential and commercial requirements.​

The new websites bring these elements together in a single, more coherent environment, making it easier to examine how different systems compare in terms of structure, operation and application. The rebuild therefore functions not only as a visual update but also as a reorganisation of technical and contextual information about the company’s pool cover offerings.
