Duct Area Covering Nets
Duct areas in apartment buildings — the narrow light wells and ventilation shafts between buildings or between apartment blocks — are prime pigeon nesting territory. These enclosed spaces are difficult to access, accumulate nesting material and droppings rapidly, and create persistent odour and hygiene problems for apartments that open into them. Duct area covering nets provide the definitive solution.
Duct covering installations are typically overhead nets stretched across the open top of the duct from building to building or from parapet to parapet. The net is supported by a wire rope catenary system fixed to anchor points on the duct walls or parapet edges, creating a covered space that pigeons cannot enter while allowing light and air to pass through the mesh.
Because duct areas are often narrow and high-sided, installation requires specialised access equipment and techniques. Our teams use telescopic access poles, rope access methods, or lightweight scaffold towers depending on the duct dimensions and access availability. All installations are engineered to ensure the net spans the full opening without sagging into the duct.
