Wooden fences shall be constructed of vertical boards not exceeding eight inches in width and openings between such boards shall not be more than two inches. A dwelling house or accessory building may be used as part of such enclosure. All gates or doors opening through such enclosure shall be equipped with a self-closing and self-latching device on the inside of the enclosure for keeping the gate or door securely closed at all times except that the door of any dwelling house which forms a part of such enclosure need not be so equipped. Doors and gates shall be securely locked when premises are vacated for any period in excess of 24 hours or when the pool is not attended by the householder or his or her authorized attendant. Horizontally woven wood fences are not considered acceptable for the purposes of keeping a pool inaccessible.
