- What does knotless mean and why does it matter?
- The strands are woven without knots, so the mesh is smooth and has no raised knots to snag on equipment or rub against a structure. It also spreads load more evenly than knotted netting.
- What is the mesh size good for?
- A 50 mm square mesh stops most debris and keeps larger animals and birds in or out. It is too open to stop small birds or insects.
- Can I cut it to size?
- Yes. It is sold by the metre at 4 m wide, and you cut across the roll to the length you need. Cut edges will need tying off or fixing to a frame.
- Is it strong enough for scaffolding?
- The 5 mm twine and 240-ply polyester give it the strength for containment and debris barrier use. Check that your site's safety requirements match the net's rating before relying on it for fall protection.
- Does it come with rope or fixings?
- No. It is netting only, so plan for rope, ties, eyelets or a frame to install it.
- Where is the Safety Net by-the-metre: Knotless Polyester 50mm 240Ply / 5.0mm cheapest?
