We have a 12×18 ft beaded liner. Can’t find a liner for it and want to convert it to a overlap. Any tips, should I order taller ?
Converting to an Overlap from a Beaded liner is simple! All you need to purchase is an Overlap pool liner and Coping Strips to hold the liner to your pool wall. All of our Overlap liners will fit up to 54” deep. We do sell Expandable Overlap liners if you have a depth over 54” and up to 72”.
How much should the liner overlap?
Depending on your pool, our Overlap Liners will typically have between 1” – 6” of overlap.

I got the overlap on mistake but looking at converting from a uni hook. I understand that I would need the coping to secure it. Can I put my metal railing back on the coping to hold the pool together?

Our pool has previously had an overlap liner can we change to a beaded liner?
Great question! Yes, you can definitely change your overlap liner to a beaded liner! All you will need is the beaded liner of your choice, and a set of bead receiver to hold the beaded liner to your pool wall. You will install your bead receiver to the top of your bare pool wall with the “lip” or “tracking” facing the inside of your pool, and the beaded portion of the liner will snap down into the track.
