Not totally sure but the birdcage might satisfy the law. But as I remember it the doors to the pool area must be alarmed and exit doors from the lanai to the outside need to have handles at least 54" above the ground level. I have seen houses, on golf courses outside of TV, that have a barrier around their pools and inside of the birdcage.
