Overhead Protection Systems, Debris and Personal Catch Netting
Protection from falls or from falling objects is greatly enhanced by the deployment of catch nets. KA can supply and install personnel nets and debris nets as well as hoardings for a more long-term solution.

Personnel nets are designed to catch workers not protected by fall arrest systems. Manufactured from the strongest synthetic fibres the nets are tested to withstand in excess of 7500kgs in a load situation.

KA prefers SALA Adjust-A-Net, with specially developed UV resistant coating and abrasion resistance. Adjust-A-Net provides secure bonding to all conversion points and includes inspection ready test cords which serve as a built in indicator allowing for the evaluation of the nets structural integrity. The Adjust-A-Net, as it's name suggests is fully adjustable and includes heavy duty steel snap hooks placed every 120cms, the system is also expandable.

Debris nets have finer gauge netting designed to catch construction debris, tools and any other building material likely to be dropped. They are ideal when used in conjunction with scaffolding and semi permanent platforms.

All KA netting systems are fully adjustable, easily installed and removed to ensure minimal impact on the project and environment without sacrificing quality and safety.

KA can also erect permanent hoardings for longer term projects. Strong, durable and constructed of steel and board, these hoardings meet all WorkCover requirements for Safe Work at Height.
