INSTALLATION OF ROPE ANCHORS
National Swimming Pool Institute residential and commercial
code requires the installation of a safety rope designating the
change of the pool bottom from the shallow end to the deep
end (also known as the "break").
To mount the oval rope eye to the coping, drill small holes in
the coping 12" back from the break in the direction towards
the shallow end and secure the rope eyes with sheet metal
screws.
Rope anchors sent are based off of the coping that you ordered:
*The specific design of rope anchors may vary
Standard bullnose coping will have a rounded oval rope eye to fit
securely on the rounded coping. This will be mounted directly onto
your coping.
Flat faced coping will have a flat oval rope eye to fit flush with your
coping. This will be mounted directly onto your coping.
Pools that have automatic covers, or cantilever coping, we provide a
vinyl liner rope eye. (This type of anchor must be installed at the
same time as skimmers and return inlets).
IMPORTANT! The safety
rope must be installed at
surface level, 12" back
from the break in the
direction towards the
shallow end.
