Classic Majestic Rectangular • Saltwater Above Ground Pool Kit
Build the backyard the whole street ends up at
A proper rectangular swimming pool you can drop into almost any flat run of yard. A clean, squared-off footprint, a real swimming shape, saltwater all the way through, and a build that handles the Australian climate without rusting out in a few seasons. Pick your liner colour, size and filter below.

Summer, sorted at home
Most of the good stuff happens around the pool, not in front of a screen. Kids straight in after school. Mates who turn up on a Sunday and somehow do not leave. Long evenings where the only plan is staying in the water until the sun gives up.
The Classic Majestic Rectangular pool gives you that without the price tag or the dug-up yard of an in-ground build. It is a modular above ground pool kit, which means it arrives as components and is assembled on a prepared base, so you get a full-size swimming pool on a sensible budget and a timeline measured in days, not months.
Box it in with decking, raise it for a built-in look, or set it on a slab and fence it. However you finish it, you end up with the part of the house everyone gravitates to from October through to April.
Why rectangular?
The rectangular pool is the shape to pick when you want a clear run to swim. The classic squared-off footprint gives you a defined lane for laps and the most usable swimming length for the space, and the clean lines sit naturally against decking, fencing and a square block.
It is one of several shapes in the Classic Majestic range. If a round, oval, teardrop or lap profile suits your yard better, we list those too, so you can pick the shape that fits your space. This rectangular pool comes in four sizes, from a tidy 6.1m up to a generous 9.8m of length, and five liner colours.
What lands in the delivery
Every Classic Majestic saltwater kit includes the pool and the gear to run it:
✓ Double laminated vinyl pool wall
✓ ZAM coated steel posts and post plates
✓ Non-corrosive top and bottom rails
✓ Heavy duty liner in your chosen colour
✓ Pump and filter (cartridge or sand)
✓ Saltwater chlorinator
✓ Moulded ladder
✓ Limited PVC fittings, nuts and bolts
✓ Maintenance pack: vac head, hose, telescopic handle, scoop and test kit
Not included: filter sand (sand filter option only), PVC pipe and salt. We will tell you exactly what you need for your block, so there are no surprises on install day.
Built for Australian conditions
A cheap above ground pool gives you two or three good summers before the rails powder up and the wall starts to sag. The Majestic is built to a different standard.
ZAM coated posts. Zinc, aluminium and magnesium alloy coating that holds up far better than standard galvanised steel against salt and the elements. The structure is the part you cannot replace, so it is the part worth getting right.
Non-corrosive resin rails. Top and bottom rails that will not rust, pit or stain your liner.
Double laminated vinyl wall. A tougher, longer-lasting wall membrane than single-layer budget pools.
Saltwater throughout. The chlorinator runs off salt rather than handfuls of chemicals, so the water is gentler on skin and eyes and far less fuss to keep clear.
Backed by a 20 year structural warranty
20 years
Pro rata limited warranty on the metal and resin structure, the posts, plates and rails.
5 years
Pro rata warranty on the fabrication of the pool liner.
Classic Pools warrants the structure of every Majestic pool for 20 years and the liner for 5, both pro rata. In plain terms, the first year is covered in full, and after that the warranty covers parts at a share of the current retail price that steps up as the pool ages, with freight on top. It covers manufacturing defects in the structure itself, not general wear, weathering, chemical damage, or the pump and filter gear, which carry their own manufacturer warranties.
Two things keep it valid: register the pool with Classic Pools after you buy, and assemble it to the supplied instructions. It covers the original purchaser and does not transfer with the house.
What the warranty does and does not cover
Covered. Manufacturing defects in the metal and resin structure for 20 years, and the fabrication of the liner for 5 years, both on a pro rata, parts-only basis.
Not covered. Labour, removal or reinstallation, water and other flow-on costs. Pumps, filters and motors sit under their own manufacturer warranties. Normal weathering and colour fade, damage from incorrect salt or chemical balance, neglect, poor drainage away from the pool wall, and leaving the pool empty are all excluded.
Your rights under Australian Consumer Law apply on top of this warranty and cannot be excluded. Full warranty terms are available from Direct Pool Supplies on request.
Build your pool
Use the options at the top of the page to set yours up. Three choices, and the price stays the same across the lot:
1. Liner colour
Five finishes: Dark Blue, Light Blue, Maui, Reef Pebble and Coral Sand. The liner sets the colour of the water and the feel of the whole pool. See what each one does further down the page.
2. Size
Four lengths: 6.1m x 3.6m, 7.3m x 3.6m, 8.5m x 4.88m and 9.8m x 4.88m. All a standard 1.37m deep.
3. Filter type
Cartridge or sand, same price either way. Both do the job. Open the panel below if you are not sure which suits you.
After a deeper end, different equipment or other extras? Those are handled off the page. See Make it yours below, or just get in touch and we will build it around you.
Cartridge or sand filter, which should I pick?
Cartridge. No backwashing, so you waste no water cleaning the filter, which matters under water restrictions. You rinse or replace the cartridge when it loads up. Lower upfront cost and the simplest day to day. A solid default for most backyards.
Sand. The familiar set-and-forget option. You backwash to clean it rather than handling a cartridge, and the media lasts years before it needs replacing. It does need filter sand to charge it, which is not included in the kit. A good fit if you prefer the traditional approach or already know your way around a sand filter.
Liner colours
The liner is what you actually see once the pool is full. It sets the colour of the water, how deep it reads and the whole mood of the backyard. All five below are selectable at the top of the page, no difference in price, so choose the one that suits your space and the look you are after.
‹ Swipe to see all five ›
Dark Blue
Deep, rich, postcard blue. Gives the water real depth and a high-contrast, resort look. The classic choice, and it suits just about any backyard.
Light Blue
Bright, crisp and clean. A lighter water tone that sparkles under full sun and reads fresh and open. Shows off water clarity better than any other finish.
Maui
A deeper, tropical aqua. Richer and more saturated than the standard blues, leaning toward teal in bright light. Vivid, warm and eye-catching.
Reef Pebble
A soft, mottled pebble-look finish with a gentle blue-green tone. Reads the most natural of the range, closer to an in-ground pebblecrete pool, and sits beautifully against timber and landscaping.
Coral Sand
A warm, sandy base that turns the water a lagoon turquoise. The warmest and most tropical finish in the range, think Mediterranean or island resort.

A note on colour and images
The images and swatches on this page are artistic renders. They give you a guide, not an exact match, and the finished product may differ. How your water actually looks depends on your surrounds, the depth of the pool and the light and shadow across it through the day, so the same liner can read differently from one yard to the next. If colour matters to you, get in touch before you order and we will help you pick with confidence.
Make it yours
The kit as listed has everything you need to get swimming. Plenty of owners tailor theirs beyond that, and those extras are arranged with our team rather than added on the page:
› Graded deep end for proper depth at one end and better lap turns
› Upgraded pump, filter or a larger chlorinator for bigger pools or heavy use
› Heating, solar blankets and rollers to stretch the season
› LED lighting, steps, covers and cleaners
Tell us how you actually want to use the pool and we will put a package together to match. No guesswork, no paying for gear you will not use.
Buying a pool kit is the easy part. We handle the rest.
Anyone can sell you a box of pool components. The bit that trips people up is everything around it, getting it approved, getting it on site, and getting it installed properly. Classic Pools builds the kit. Direct Pool Supplies, in partnership with them, gets it approved, delivered, installed and looked after.
DA and council approvals
Above ground pools still need approval almost everywhere, and the rules shift between states and councils. We help you work out what applies to your block, what your certifier will want to see, and how to get the paperwork moving. We are not your certifier, but we will make the process far less painful.
Local installers
Rectangular kits need some on-site modification, the resin corner seats and rails are trimmed to size for a clean fit. Plenty of handy owners assemble their own, but we are happy to point you to installers in your area who do this week in, week out.
Delivery anywhere
We arrange freight to your door or direct to your installer. Tell us where you are and we will sort the logistics.
Aftercare and the rest of the gear
Free water testing, real advice from people who know pools, spare parts, and everything else you will want, solar blankets and rollers, LED lighting, steps and cleaners. Buy it all in one place.
Do I need council approval for an above ground pool?
In most cases, yes. Any pool that can hold more than 300mm of water is treated as a swimming pool under Australian rules, which means approval and a compliant safety barrier. What you actually need depends on your state and your local council.
The things councils and certifiers usually look at are the pool barrier or fence, how far the pool sits from boundaries and structures, and registering the pool once it is in. Some jobs can go through as complying development, others need a full development application.
Send us your address and a rough idea of where the pool is going and we will help you understand what applies and connect you with a certifier. Get this sorted before you order so the timeline runs smoothly.
What is involved in installing it?
The pool sits on a prepared, level base, either a compacted sand pad, crusher dust, or a concrete slab. Getting the base flat and square is the single most important part of the job and worth doing properly.
From there the posts, rails and wall go up, the liner is fitted, and the filtration and chlorinator are plumbed in. Rectangular kits need the resin corner seats and rails cut to size on site for a perfect fit, so they are a step up from a basic round pool.
If you are confident on the tools you can take it on yourself. If you would rather hand it over, ask us and we will suggest installers near you.

Common questions
Is it actually saltwater?
Yes. A saltwater chlorinator is included. You add pool salt to the water and the chlorinator does the rest, gentler on skin and eyes, and far less hands-on than dosing chemicals.
How deep is it?
1.37m as standard across the whole floor. Want deeper water at one end? A graded deep end is available as an optional upgrade, just get in touch before you order and we will sort it.
Will the water match the colour in the photos?
Close, but treat the images as a guide rather than an exact match. They are artistic renders. The real colour of your water shifts with the surrounds, the depth and the light and shadow on the day, so the same liner looks different from yard to yard. Not sure which finish to run? Ask us before you order.
Can I install it myself?
Many owners do. The base prep and the corner modifications on a rectangular pool take a bit of care, so if you are not confident, ask us and we will suggest a local installer.
What is the lead time?
Liners are made to order, so allow time for manufacture and dispatch once your order is confirmed. Lead times stretch out the closer it gets to summer, so the earlier you order, the sooner you swim.
What is not included?
Filter sand (for the sand filter option), PVC pipe and pool salt are not in the kit. We will give you a clear list of what to grab for your install so nothing holds you up.
Not sure which shape?
Each shape suits a different yard. Here are the others in the Classic Majestic range, same build, same five liner colours, same saltwater kit.
