Above Ground Pool Liners
Replacing a worn liner or upgrading the look of your pool? We carry four liner types for Doughboy and Embassy above ground pools — dozens of patterns, and we'll help you match the right one.
Which Liner Type Do You Need?
Above ground pool liners aren't one-size-fits-all. The type you need depends on your pool's wall height, attachment system, and whether you want a flat bottom or deep end. Here's what each type does and which brands carry them.
Expandable Liners
Expandable liners stretch at the bottom to accommodate a deep-end configuration — giving you more usable swimming depth, not just wading depth. The liner drapes over the top of the pool wall and is secured with coping strips (overlap attachment).
Best For
- ✓ Pools with a deep-end dish-out or hopper bottom
- ✓ Swimmers who want maximum depth
- ✓ Standard overlap attachment (coping strips)
Available From
Doughboy offers 20mil (standard) and 25mil (premium) gauge options. Embassy expandable liners are available in overlap format.

Caribbean Blue
Uniform Depth (UD) Liners
UD liners are designed for flat-bottom pool installations. The liner sits at a consistent depth across the entire pool floor — no deep end, no slope. Secured with an overlap attachment (coping strips over the wall).
Best For
- ✓ Flat-bottom pool setups (no deep end)
- ✓ Lap swimming and water exercise
- ✓ Families with young children (even depth throughout)
Available From
Available in 20mil gauge. Doughboy patterns include Bayou, Misty Falls, and Solid Blue. Embassy patterns include Pebble Springs and Solid Blue.

EZ-Clip Liners
EZ-Clip liners snap into a receiver channel mounted at the top of the pool wall. No overlap material, no coping strips — the liner sits flush for a clean, finished look.
Best For
- ✓ Pools with EZ-Clip receiver system installed
- ✓ Clean, professional finish with no bunching at the top
- ✓ Easier installation for DIY liner replacement
Available From
Doughboy EZ-Clip liners available in 48" and 52"/54" wall heights. Patterns include Evening Star, Terrazzo, Triton, and Grotto.

Dual Bead Liners
EMBASSY ONLYDual Bead liners have two attachment beads that snap into either a J-hook or a standard bead receiver track. One liner works with either track type, no modification needed.
Best For
- ✓ Embassy 3000 Series pools
- ✓ Pools with J-hook or bead receiver tracks
- ✓ Maximum installation flexibility (works with either track type)
Available From
Dual Bead is exclusive to Embassy pools. Doughboy pools use Expandable, UD, or EZ-Clip attachment systems instead.
