Heavy-duty M6 and M8 stainless steel netbolts are used in the corners of the bird netting or where points of abnormal stress occur and are strong enough for seagull netting. Intermediate fixings generally consist of 50mm stainless steel split pins inserted into 50mm nylon anchor rivets, or a HiltiHA8 zinc plated metal hanger on larger netting systems. Where we are fixing into cladding systems we are able to use a 25mm x 25mm right-angled passivated bracket or a 40mm x 40mm plastic injection moulded base to avoid penetrating the surface material of the bird nets.
The bird netting is constructed from high density ultra-violet stabilised knotted 12/6 polyethylene being chemically inert and rot proof in addition to offering a high resistance to a wide range of chemical and environmental conditions. The result is a high quality tensioned bird net sealing the perimeter area and preventing gaps appearing. Birdnet is available in four mesh sizes and various colours depending on the physical surroundings and particular species causing the problem.
