Balcony Bird Netting
Balcony Bird Netting – Safe, Discreet & Highly Effective Pigeon Deterrent
For many people living in apartments or flats, having a balcony is one of the best features of the property—offering fresh air, outdoor space, and a view. Unfortunately, these same balconies can quickly become the perfect roosting and nesting site for pigeons and occasionally seagulls. These birds seek out sheltered spaces with overhead cover—something that apartment balconies often provide in abundance.
Once birds, particularly pigeons, take a liking to your balcony, it can become virtually unusable. Bird droppings (guano), nesting debris, and constant noise can make your outdoor space unhygienic and unpleasant.
🛡️ The Balcony Bird Netting Solution
When it comes to bird proofing for balconies, many residents are understandably concerned about losing their view. That’s why we specialise in discreet bird netting for balconies—a humane, long-lasting, and visually low-impact bird control solution that keeps your space clean, usable, and bird-free.
Our balcony bird netting is designed specifically as a pigeon prevention netting system. We typically use 50 mm pigeon netting, available in multiple colours including black, stone, and transparent, helping it blend seamlessly with most building facades and balcony types.
This anti-bird netting for balconies works by physically blocking birds from accessing your balcony, without causing them harm. The material we use is a UV-stabilised, flame-retardant, heavy-duty polyethylene (HDPE) net—proven to stand up to harsh outdoor conditions. We also offer nylon balcony bird net options for more flexible installations.

🔧 Professional Installation – Clean, Secure, and Built to Last
We build a secure perimeter using a 2mm stainless steel shaping wire, fitted with appropriate fixings depending on the surface type (e.g. concrete, brick, metal, or uPVC). The wire is tensioned using barrel strainers, ensuring the net is taut and professional-looking. The bird exclusion net is then attached using SR8-grade hog ring staples for a neat and durable finish.
If required, we can also install zip access panels, allowing you to unzip the net when you’re enjoying your balcony, and zip it closed again to keep birds off your balcony when not in use. This makes it a flexible and practical solution for those who want to maintain both a view and cleanliness.

Balcony netting is used to keep birds, pets, and even debris out of balcony spaces. It helps prevent birds from roosting or nesting and provides a safe, enclosed area for children or pets.
Is balcony netting safe for birds and pets?
Yes, it’s completely safe and humane. The netting acts as a barrier rather than a trap, preventing entry without causing harm to birds or animals.
