Protection and Safety

Vertical safety nets out of Webnet are often used as fall prevention or additional protection. They supply reliable safety for balconies, galleries or outdoor terraces with a minimal impact on free sight. The elegance of the stainless steel mesh integrates extremely well into many architectural styles. Coloring options and the many varieties of wire diameters make the mesh fully adaptable to the needs of the project.

Horizontal safety nets with Webnet provide efficient and beautiful protection against falls. The high translucency of the net makes it almost transparent and let natural light shine through.

Webnet is an affordable and efficient solution for large-scale protection nets against falling objects. Up to six meters width and eight meters height, no additional supporting ropes are required, which makes the structures elegant in appearance. Thanks to its high translucency, Webnet lets enough sunlight pass through and is almost invisible. This effect can be increased by the choice of the appropriate cable dimension, the use of the sleeveless variety and a spectral colorization.

On monuments with great crowd sizes, safety without compromising the free sight, is essential. Webnet fulfils the many exigencies that are made on a safety net for monuments: it is low in maintenance, provides a free view and does not have a negative visual impact on the historic buildings.

On landing platforms for helicopters, a strong and reliable safety netting is required, as strong winds can occur during take-offs and landings. Jakob Rope Systems has fitted numerous helipads with surrounding safety nets, that prevent from falls and require little maintenance.
