Cats can flatten their bodies to pass through remarkably small gaps, and a standard 2-inch balcony mesh will not reliably stop a determined or frightened cat. We fit a tighter mesh, similar to our children's safety net spec, specifically sized so cats cannot squeeze through even at a run.
For dogs, the concern is usually jumping or leaning over a low parapet rather than squeezing through, so we assess the specific pet's size and behaviour during the free inspection rather than applying one fixed spec to every home.
We also net any gaps around AC units, pipe openings or drainage outlets on the balcony floor, since pets frequently attempt to explore or escape through these overlooked openings rather than the main railing.
Multi-pet households and terrace-access homes often combine pet netting with a secondary access door net, allowing you to open the balcony door without a pet slipping out unsupervised.

Frequently asked questions
Will this stop my cat from squeezing through?+
Our pet-specific mesh is sized considerably tighter than standard balcony netting specifically to prevent cats from squeezing through gaps.
Does the net work for balcony doors we open daily?+
Yes, we can add a secondary net panel across the door opening so you can ventilate the room without your pet having a clear exit.
What about larger dogs?+
For larger, heavier dogs we increase anchor point density and may recommend a higher-tension mesh grade during inspection.
Can birds (parrots, etc.) be safely kept behind these nets too?+
Yes, the same fine mesh used for cats works well to keep pet birds contained on a balcony aviary setup.
