Our nets are available in different mesh sizes according to the target species. 75mm mesh is used for Seagulls, 50mm mesh for pigeons, 40mm mesh for Pheasants, 28mm mesh for Starlings and 19mm mesh for Sparrows and small birds. All of our nets come in stock sizes available for next working day delivery or may be cut to size to the nearest square metre. Cut to size nets will take 4 working days to despatch.

Fixings

As well as high quality netting we also supply a comprehensive range of fixings. The choice of fixing will vary dependent on the type of surface being fixed to, the size of the net, installation time and costs.

Galvanised Steel Fixings

Our galvanised steel fixings enable you to install a low cost netting solution. The fixings and wire rope are made from galvanised or zinc plated steel, which is lower cost but has a shorter life span than stainless steel.

Stainless Steel Fixings

Our stainless steel fixings are ideal for professional and commercial installations. The fixings and wire rope are made from A2 (304) stainless steel and will last over 10 years in normal UK weather conditions.

Installing a 10m x 10m net

Corner Fixings

Corner fixings should be installed every 10m around the perimeter of the net. These more substantial fixings allow the wire rope to be tensioned to support the weight of the net.

The type of corner fixing to be used depends on the material that the net is to be fixed to:

Masonry Corner Fixings

This is the most common type of corner fixing. Use M6 anchor bolts.

Steelwork Corner Fixings

For steel beams and girderwork use 20mm beam clamps or 6mm beam bolts.

Timber Corner Fixings

For timber use 100mm vine eyes

Cladding Corner Fixings

For cladding and sheet steel use 15mm or 25mm cladding bolts.

Roof Tile Corner Fixings

Wherever possible install the corner fixings into the ridge tiles of a roof using M6 anchor bolts. If you have to fix the corner to a roof tile use .

Intermediate Fixings

Intermediate fixings should be installed at regular intervals between the corner fixings. 1 metre intervals for 75mm and 50mm nets, 1/2 metre intervals for 40mm and 28mm nets and 1/3 metre intervals for 19mm nets.

The type of intermediate fixing to be used depends on the material that the net is to be fixed to:

Masonry Intermediate Fixings

For masonry use 45mm screw eyes and wall plugs, hammer in net spikes, or 38mm split pins and 38mm masonry rivets.

If access is required behind the perimeter of the net our intermediate wire rope brackets allow the wire rope to be unhooked in between the corner fixings.

Steelwork Intermediate Fixings

For steel beams and girders use hammer on beam clips. These are available in varying sizes according to the thickness of the beams.

Timber Intermediate Fixings

For timber use 45mm screw eyes.

Cladding Intermediate Fixings

For cladding use angle brackets with 25mm self drill screws and bonded washers to ensure a water tight fixing.

Net Fixings

Nets should be fixed to the tensioned wire rope using steel hog rings for a long lasting installation.

Corner fixings should also be attached with netting corner ties for extra strength.

For easy removal of a net use net guides instead of hog rings.

Net Zips

If regular access is required through the net (e.g. for light fixtures and roof access) use netting zips.

To fit a zip to the net simply use steel hog rings to staple the fabric edging of the zip to the netting, using one staple per mesh square on each side of the net.

Use netting corner ties at each end of the zip for extra strength. Then un-zip the zip and snip open the netting behind it.
