Safety Solutions for Apartment Duct Areas & Light Shafts

In multi-story residential apartment buildings, open light shafts and plumbing duct areas between towers represent dangerous vertical voids prone to debris accumulation and bird infestations.

Common Hazards in Open Apartment Ducts

• Falling Objects: Residents accidentally dropping clothes, flower pots, or building debris down the shaft can shatter PVC drainage and sewage pipes, leading to expensive plumbing leaks.
• Pigeon Roosting & Stagnation: Deep light shafts are sheltered from wind, creating prime nesting environments for pigeons. Over time, bird droppings accumulate at the bottom, creating severe odor and sanitation complaints.

Horizontal Netting Systems

Our heavy-duty duct area safety nets are installed horizontally across the shaft opening using heavy gauge steel brackets and perimeter cable lines. They catch dropped items, keep birds out, and maintain proper natural ventilation for bathroom and kitchen exhaust outlets.
