Project Highlights
This co-operative building has been a long term Client of us and we have done many challenging jobs over the years here. This work is a small example of what can be achieved with custom work.
In some cases the top balcony of an apartment building is exposed overhead, without ceiling. Bird Netting needs a suspension cable frame and installation is simply not possible if there is no structure overhead. With precise planning, support poles can be mounted on the railing at he corners to accommodate the installation of the perimeter cable for the netting.
These support poles are fabricated to perfectly fit the existing railing and are also mounted into the walls to ensure maximum strength. The poles can be powder coated to match the colour of the railing or can be left exposed to the elements if the cheaper, rusty look is preferred.
The poles are completely custom welded according to site specifications, so the process is time consuming, but the end result is a neat looking and effective Bird Netting job on a balcony where otherwise netting would not be possible to install.
Custom fabricated hardware is almost always necessary in more complex, retrofit netting work. We can also can provide engineer certified drawings and basically can build anything you can imagine, from scratch.
