While I cannot imagine at all a PVC rail fence for a pool, you might  
try this. I am way curious about zoning & code regs. in ur area also.  
 
Using larger diameter PVC, IE: 3 inch ID, or larger, CUT two pieces  
that will attach to the existing fence, creating 2 PVC channels, that the  
gate can rest & slide in. OR find some type of bracket, like plumbing  
bracket, that attach & hold the gate to the fence, appropriately placed  
allowing in essence what is similar to a slide bolt latch for an interior  
door.  
 
Is the fence a DIY type? Custom crafted? How is the current fence  
installed, & will it even support a sliding gate? How large is the opening  
the gate has to secure?  
 
If a slider seems impractical why not two opposing gates, similar to  
swinging ''Bar'' type doors that would open, & could be pushed flush with  
the existing fence, in or out, pening only one at a time if need be.

Maybe you could try a farm supply company.
