Roof Tile Netting & Facade Nets
Safety nets for securing roof tiles on church towers, old factory buildings or barns. Somentimes a crumbling roof cannot be repaired immediately. Nevertheless, the owner of a property is responsible for safe traffic routes and work areas. In such cases, safety nets are a temporary solution. The netting gets simply tensed over the affected roof or in front of the affected facade. So the crumbling bricks will be held directly or they will be guided on their way to the ground.
These special roof safety nets are used, for example, on old church towers, pitched roofs, factory buildings or barns and are either stretched over the affected roof or in front of the affected façade. In this way, crumbling tiles, roof tiles or façade parts are held in place. However, if individual parts of the roof covering or tiles should come loose, the net also serves to guide them downwards in a safe manner, thus preventing an uncontrolled fall.

Facade protection - nets made of stable material
To ensure maximum safety, all our protective nets for roof and facade protection are made of braided, solid-coloured polypropylene filament yarn. This is an extremely tear-resistant and stable synthetic fibre. The knotless weave, which is just as stable as a knotted connection, ensures that the net retains its shape. The tear-resistant material ensures that the net can withstand sharp stones and bricks without tearing.

The material of our nets is 100 % non-toxic, and contact with mucous membranes (mouth, eyes) is also completely harmless. Our safety nets are also suitable for long-term outdoor use thanks to their weather resistance and UV stabilisation.
Various options for securing the roof - tarpaulin or safety net
Whether you decide in favour of a net or a tarpaulin to secure the facade and roof tiles of your house depends on the damage to the roof surface and the conditions on site. If you anticipate that only large and coarse parts of the roof covering or the facade will come loose, you can easily use a protective net to secure it. At Safetynet365, you can order nets in two different mesh sizes -
However, if you want to secure roofs or facades near footpaths or work sites and have to expect small-scale rockfall, you should use a tarpaulin or very close-meshed netting. This will ensure that no stones can fall through the mesh onto pavements or similar. For these cases, our safety net is available with a very small mesh size of
Correctly install protective nets for facade and roof tile protection
To ensure the necessary security for your home, nets for securing facades and roof tiles must be adequately secured. During installation, make sure that the net is tensioned and securely fastened on all sides.
In the event of debris falling from the roof surface or facade, the mesh may have to withstand an enormous weight - depending on how large and heavy the falling debris is. If the mesh is not sufficiently secured when the roof tiles or stones hit the mesh, it is possible that inadequate fastenings will tear loose. Both the stone parts and the net itself could then become a danger to bystanders. Proper fastening of the safety net is therefore essential.
In addition, the storm protection must not be neglected. The net or tarpaulin must also be able to withstand strong winds and storms. All our tarpaulins are permeable to air, which prevents them from blowing up as far as possible, but the nets must still be sufficiently secured to withstand the wind suction and not be blown away during storms.
During installation, also pay attention to the stability of the surface on which the fasteners are mounted. Only install the fixings for the net at points on the roof or facade that are demonstrably stable. This is the only way to ensure that the nets function properly.
Also use fastening methods that are as stable as possible. If the building has a unified frame or suitable fastening points, you can use robust cable ties, for example. However, you are always on the safe side if you use metal plugs for the walls and steel wire ropes to secure the net. These can also withstand high tensile forces and reliably hold the safety net in place.
Various fasteners and matching accessories for your safety net can be found in the Safetynet365 shop. On our homepage, we also offer you further information on the correct installation of safety nets.
Customised protective nets - facade and roof tile protection tailored to your needs
All our safety nets can be customised - this means that you choose the length and width of the net according to your wishes. This means you can determine the size yourself and adapt the safety net or tarpaulin to the conditions on site.

How To Secure A Crumbling Facade?
To secure a crumbling facade, there are a few steps you can take:
- Identify the cause of the damage: Often, facade damage is due to damp walls or poor insulation. To ensure that repairs are effective, the cause of the damage must be addressed.
- Remove loose or damaged bricks or mortar: If parts of the facade are loose or damaged, they must be carefully removed and replaced.
- Use new mortar to securely anchor the stones or bricks: use hydraulic mortar to ensure that it has sufficient adhesion and that the damage does not recur.
- Protect the facade from further damage: Put measures such as gutters and drains in place to prevent water from running down the facade and causing damage.
It is important that the repairs are done by a professional craftsman to ensure that they are safe and durable. If the damage to the façade is extensive or if in-depth repairs are required, it may be necessary to hire an architect or civil engineer to ensure that the building remains safe and stable.
Is It Possible To Use A Net To Secure The Facade?
It is possible to use a net to secure a crumbling facade by stretching it in front of the facade to catch falling stones or mortar. This could be especially useful if the damage is on a house facade that is near roads, sidewalks or other busy areas and could pose a danger to passers-by.
However, the net should not be used as the only action to secure the facade. Use this securing primarily to avert acute danger from falling parts. In the medium term, the facade should be repaired or replaced. Until then, securing with a fabric tarpaulin or a net is an adequate first step.
