Life Saver Pool Fence: Safeguarding Families with Innovative Pool Safety Solutions

Founded in 1987 by Robert and Ruth Lupton in Delray Beach, Florida, Life Saver Pool Fence Systems, Inc. started as a childproofing business focused on preventing accidental drownings.

The company quickly evolved into a national leader in the manufacturing and installation of removable mesh pool fencing, offering a critical safety solution for families with young children and pets. Headquartered in Delray Beach to this day, Life Saver has spent nearly four decades committed to delivering high-quality, reliable pool safety products.

In February 2023, Life Saver Pool Fence officially launched its franchise program, opening its proven business model to entrepreneurs across the country. The franchise offers a home-based, low-overhead opportunity with an initial investment range of approximately $71,658 to $105,998. Franchisees benefit from comprehensive training, proprietary systems, and ongoing support, making it accessible even to those without prior industry experience.

What sets Life Saver Pool Fence apart is its focus on both safety and innovation. Its fences are constructed with reinforced aluminum poles and a strong, nearly transparent mesh, providing both durability and visual appeal. A standout feature is the company’s 100-year warranty on its pool fences—a testament to its confidence in product longevity and customer satisfaction.

Training

Life Saver Pool Fence (LSPF) offers a comprehensive training framework to prepare franchisees and their teams for successful business operations. The training structure includes the following programs:

1. Initial Training Program
   Franchisees and their managers must complete a 6-day Initial Training Program that includes business and installer training segments. Topics covered include marketing, sales techniques, service procedures, and business operations. There is no fee for the training itself, but all travel, lodging, and meal costs are the franchisee’s responsibility.
2. Additional or Refresher Training
   LSPF may offer additional or refresher training periodically. Franchisees are responsible for all costs related to participation, including any applicable daily fees ($400 per person) and expenses such as travel, meals, and lodging.
3. Manager Training
   If the franchisor deems it necessary, specific training sessions may be required for managers. These are separate from the initial training and aim to ensure that managerial staff meet operational standards.
4. Successor Training Requirement
   In the event of franchise renewal or transfer, the new or continuing franchisee may be required to complete new training and refresher programs to ensure they remain current with system standards. Completion of these programs is a condition for granting a successor franchise.

Territory Protection

Life Saver Pool Fence grants franchisees a defined territory, built using ZIP Code boundaries, with at least 100,000 households of a specified income level. While the franchisor agrees not to establish another LSPF business within this territory, the protection is limited.

Franchisees may face competition from other franchisees, outlets owned by the franchisor, or from other distribution channels or competitive brands under different marks.

Furthermore, Life Saver Pool Fence reserves the right to sell and promote products and services in a franchisee’s territory through affiliates or independent contractors, provided they do not use the LSPF trademarks.
