Preguntas Frecuentes
All our products, as well as the nets, have been tested and verified by qualified entities. These evaluations include the aging of the material exposed to natural agents such as the sun, humidity, water, extreme cold and heat. The results prove a durability of up to 3-4 years in the case of the nets.
However, our nets do not have filters for other agents such as smog, or any corrosive and acidic elements found in the air, nor extreme temperature variations.
The net must be fully tensed, but not reaching a maximum point of rigidness. It is essential that the net maintains a degree of flexibility, in order to be more resistant upon a soft body impact with enough elongation to cushion the blow.
No. We do not recommend this, given that the nets have been designed to provide additional protection under current regulations, and not for pools.
Any nets used as barriers for swimming pools can be exposed to the risks of being gnawed by animals, broken by mishandling of tools such as lawnmowers or edgers, as well as being corroded by Chlorine. All these factors directly affect the safety capacity of the product.
Yes. Provided that there is no overall roof, an iron or aluminum structure will have to be previously installed and solidly planted. Dimensions range from 1.70 meters (5.57 feet) or 2.00 meters (6.56 feet) from the floor (maximum regulatory heights) and the net will be placed to said structure.
We recommend placing square iron/aluminum tubes with a section of 2.54 x 2.54 centimeters (1” x 1” inches), with the vertical uprights at no more than 2.00 meters (6.56 feet). This is to prevent flexing of the horizontal structure once the net is tensed.
The nets and profiles have been submitted to stress tests by INTI, yielding radial resistance results of 140/m2 (transparent net) and 200/m2 (white net). This means that the net resists the direct impact of this load as a whole. The stress tests do not include resistance to any climbing up the net.
Each one of the rhombuses on the net resists 17kg (37.47 pounds) in the case of the transparent net and 49kg (108.02 pounds) in the case of the white net.
No. Our tests have always been carried out with the net placed in a vertical position.
No. Our safety nets have not been designed for that purpose and we strongly recommend against it.
All our nets are made of nylon and can be cut with a sharp element and/or burned with direct fire.
In some cases this is an advantage in case of an emergency.
This is an advantage in case of an emergency.
Si, porque son fabricadas para la pesca, pero ensayadas y aptas para proteccion de balcones.
En algunos casos podrian aparecer rombos destejidos o deformes, estos defectos se reparan manualmente con hilo de tanza del mismo espesor, sin tener que hacer el recambio porque estos defectos no afectan el funcionamiento en su conjunto.
The aging tests performed on the nets have taken into consideration the most adverse situations in order to provide the user with a correct estimate concerning the optimal time of usage. In any case, it is advisable to check the condition of the net from time to time since deterioration does not occur overnight.
No. Replacing a Netzen net is very simple and does not involve any noisy or dirty work. Since it is a manual job that does not require the use of electric tools, such as a drill or rotary hammer, this can even be done during noise restriction hours or days with bad weather conditions.
Netzen provides the option of purchasing products in bulk format or made to order.
No. Some companies claim that transparent nets can cut children's hands, but we would not be using such material, nor would we be offering a 2 year written warranty were that to be the case with our product.
Yes. The nets can be brought down and removed manually by unhooking each rhombus from its harpoon. This task involves fine dexterity, a simple task for an adult but difficult for a child. Do not cut the net, just unhook it.
No. It is very important to bear in mind that the surface on which the aluminum or polyamide profiles will be attached must be in good conditions. This means the surfaces must be free of moisture or cracks that weaken the joint with the anchors.
There are surfaces that are more delicate than others, such as plaster walls or hollow bricks for which special plugs and screws are necessary. In any case, the main requirement is that the perimeter is in good condition and that it is firm to offer the necessary resistance.
Yes. Many customers use the net to protect their pets. For many, this is a recommended solution both for its comparative advantages and for its effectiveness. Nevertheless, we suggest adding further protection if a pet has a habit of breaking everything since the net is made of nylon and may not be safe enough in some cases.
We suggest the net (mesh) is installed until the children turn 7-8 years old.
Interior balconies are a key place to install Netzen safety nets. Contrary to the natural, unconscious state of alertness to the risk of free falls from heights that an exterior balcony or terrace implies, interior balconies tend to be disregarded.
The risk of fall accidents increases because people tend to be more relaxed moving through these internal spaces on a daily basis. Even if the height of the internal balcony is not very pronounced, it is very common for adults to behave recklessly, such as throwing objects in order to avoid going up and down stairs that children may dangerously mimic.
Any nets (mesh) installed with anchors can be very difficult to adapt to new openings. What can be saved in materials will be insignificant compared to the labor cost of removal and reinstallation. The less expensive option is installing a new net system.
Yes. This is because the rhombuses on the nets are smaller than these creatures.
Yes. The transparent monofilament net (mesh) is made up of a discontinuous weft formed by rhombuses that are interrupted by thermosealed knots. If the net were to be damaged, the tear would be stopped immediately at the following rhombus so that it does not "run". Also, repairing it is very easy and you can access the tutorial on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEuvcjtkblw
● Life-cycle: time during which all the properties of the product are maintained (resistance and durability), according to the technical tests carried out.
● Warranty: time during which Netzen undertakes to solve any inconvenience due to material defects free of charge.
Yes. We suggest cleaning the gate using a damp cloth and drying afterwards. Do not use any chemical or abrasive products on the gate.
No. It does not require maintenance, but we recommend regularly checking the correct operation of the door and the tension of the mounts.
Never leave a child unattended. None of our products replace in any way the capacity of adult supervision. Discontinue use if you notice that a child can open and/or tamper with the net or gate. Any sharp, toxic and/or dangerous objects must be out of the reach of children.
El aluminio no se oxida y sobre hierro funciona igual pintado que sin pintura. Para evitar el par galvánico siempre se debería colocar un separados de goma, que puede ser un o´rring en cada tornillo para evitar que se toquen.
