Netting Fixings
Every bird net needs two kinds of fixing. Corner fixings take the load where the perimeter wire changes direction, and intermediate fixings support that wire along the straight runs between corners. Get either wrong and the net sags or pulls away.
Which fixing you need is decided by the substrate, not by the bird. Masonry takes anchors, eye bolts, screw pins and hammer-in net spikes. Timber takes vine eyes and screw pins. Sheet steel cladding takes cladding bolts and self-drill screws with bonded washers. Structural steel takes beam bolts.
The rest of a run: 2mm wire rope around the perimeter, ferrules or wire rope grips to terminate it, barrel strainers so it can be re-tensioned later rather than replaced, corner protectors where the rope turns over a hard edge, and hog rings or netting ties to close the net to the wire.
