Bird nets for duct areas: what Sholinganallur homes face
Crows and mynas repeatedly visit an open duct area, searching for food, nesting spots and shiny objects. IT-corridor high-rises have long exposed balconies at height, where wind pressure on nets and cables is substantial.
Many residents are working couples away all day, so a tidy installation completed in one visit matters. Sparrows and small birds slip through wide-mesh netting and nest inside the duct area, so the mesh must match the bird.
What we see in Sholinganallur
The land around Sholinganallur is flat and open, with the Pallikaranai marsh and remaining wetlands nearby. That means strong winds on upper floors and plenty of crows, kites and pigeons around the towers, which is why balcony protection is such a common request in this area.
On the upper floors of Sholinganallur towers, pigeons nest behind AC units and in balcony corners, especially where balconies stay unused during the working day. Because wind at height is strong, we tension nets firmly and use more anchor points than on a low-rise building, so the net does not sag or flap over time.
How we fit bird nets for duct areas in Sholinganallur
Duct netting is fitted so that technicians can still open panels to reach meters and pipes. Seams and corners are double-secured, because determined birds work at the weakest point. Net panels are cut to fit the space, then fixed with stainless hooks so there are no gaps to squeeze through.
Typical properties in Sholinganallur include high-rise gated apartments, IT-employee housing and independent houses in newer layouts, and birds use each of them differently, so we check where they land, nest and enter before deciding the net layout.
We check drain lines and vents so they stay unobstructed.
Choosing the right bird nets for duct areas
For bird nets for duct areas we normally supply UV-stabilised HDPE or nylon bird net, Knotless netting for smaller mesh, Stainless-steel hooks and clips and Weatherproof binding cord.
Wetlands and open plots along the corridor bring plenty of crows and kites to the towers.
What to ask any installer before you agree:
- Ask for a net that can be opened at one point for cleaning without removing the whole panel.
- Prefer stainless or coated fittings, which resist Chennai's humid air far better than plain steel.
- Choose UV-stabilised HDPE or nylon so the net stays flexible and strong outdoors.
