About invisible grills for balconies in Pune
High-rise balconies offer the best views, and an invisible grill keeps them intact while still preventing falls.
On a balcony we fix cables between the floor slab and the ceiling, or between posts, at spacing suited to your family. We check the slab and side walls for solid anchoring points before planning the layout.
Invisible grills for balconies in Pune: local conditions
In Pune's newer towers, families with young children commonly ask for invisible grills on balconies and safety nets on windows and dry balconies. Because most societies want a uniform look, invisible grills are popular: they are hardly visible from outside. On higher floors we plan anchors for wind, and we always confirm the wall type before drilling.
Pune's housing is organised around co-operative housing societies, from the older low-rise buildings of Kothrud, Aundh and Sahakar Nagar to the large gated townships of Hinjewadi, Wakad, Baner, Kharadi and Hadapsar. The IT parks at Hinjewadi, Kharadi and Magarpatta have driven a wave of high-rise construction, and neighbouring Pimpri-Chinchwad has grown just as quickly.
Most work in Pune has to fit in with society rules. Many societies ask for a particular net colour or grill pattern so the building looks uniform, and some arrange netting for an entire wing at once. In older Pune buildings we often work on open ducts, dry balconies and terraces that were never designed with bird-proofing or child safety in mind.

- Uncovered openings on the balcony make flats less appealing at resale or renting time.
