In-Ground Pools
Create a custom backyard retreat with a professionally installed Cardinal in-ground pool. Choose from popular pool shapes or work with our team to design a pool that complements your property, lifestyle and vision.
Build the Pool You Have Envisioned
From clean traditional shapes to flowing custom designs, your pool can be created around the way your family wants to swim, relax and enjoy the backyard.

Designed Around Your Backyard
A quality in-ground pool should feel like a natural part of your home. The shape, size, entry area, shallow end, deep end and surrounding features can all be planned around your available space and how you intend to use the pool.
Choose a popular Cardinal design or discuss a custom shape with our team. Whether your priority is family recreation, swimming, lounging or entertaining, we will help you explore the available options.

A Pool That Fits Your Lifestyle
Create a layout that works for your property and the way your family plans to use the pool. Traditional, geometric, free-flowing and custom shapes provide a wide range of design possibilities.
- Standard and custom pool shapes
- Family recreation and swimming areas
- Shallow lounging and sunbathing options
- Steps, benches and entry choices

Engineered Steel Pool Walls
Cardinal steel wall panels are manufactured for consistent alignment, accurate fit and dependable structural support. Galvanized steel construction also allows pools to be formed into a wide range of standard and custom shapes.
- 14-gauge galvanized steel wall panels
- Strong top, bottom and vertical flanges
- Reinforced panel and brace construction
- Customizable shapes and sizes
Strength Behind the Finished Pool
Important structural components work together behind the liner, decking and finished backyard to support the pool throughout the installation and after completion.
Steel Panel Walls
The panel flanges and structural stiffeners are joined through Cardinal's toggle-lock fastening system, creating an accurate, square and reinforced wall structure.
A-Frame Wall Bracing
Adjustable wall-support systems help keep the pool walls straight and square during construction and provide additional structural support around the pool.
Deck Bracing
Deck-brace systems support the surrounding concrete or other approved decking materials and transfer weight toward the base of the pool wall.
Skimmer Support
A dedicated support beneath the skimmer helps carry its weight during backfilling and after the pool installation has been completed.
Pool design, structural components, decking requirements and installation details may vary according to the selected pool, property conditions, local codes and final project specifications.
