RE: NOWADAYS...

There is indeed a blessing to be recited when installing a fence on a roof, quoted by many halachic authorities.
I recall seeing a ruling of the Ben Ish Hai that one does not say a blessing when fencing in a pit or a well. I would assume that the same applies to a pool.

NOWADAYS..

do we still recite a blessing if we build a fence on our flat roof? also the equivalent e.g. fencing in a swimming pool or balcony - do we recite a blessing?

	Living With The Times - Ki Teitzei
The five books of Torah are the blueprint for creation. Each Torah portion presents one dimension of the vast eternal plan. The Lubavitcher Rebbe, of righteous memory, in his talks revealed the theme of each portion. Presented here is a class on one of these talks.
