Bird Posts & Wire

Why Use Bird Wire?

Bird wire and post deterrent systems are used to stop birds perching on ledges and parapets. One of the main advantages of using bird wire is that once installed they are very discreet. Wire posts have a low profile which means that in some cases they cannot be seen from street level on high ledges. Because of this bird wire systems are usually used in places like town centres and on office buildings.  

Many of our bird wire and post systems are supplied with a stainless-steel post and a plastic base. These are available in a range of heights. This will enable you to create a post and wire system bespoke to the building, ledge or parapet that you are working on. Using the plastic stick on base makes it easy to follow the contours of a building so that there are no gaps in the bird deterrent system. 

We stock a range of bird wire that can be used with these post and wire systems. Nylon coated wire is the best type of wire to use in this situation. It has a 0.7mm finished diameter and is available in spool sizes of 50m, 100m, 250m and 500m. It is fully UV-stabilised and comes with a clear nylon coating.  

In addition to nylon-coated wire we also supply bird coil systems. This is another discreet ledge-proofing solution and is easy to install. Bird-Coil can easily be cut down to suit different ledge lengths. When installing you must ensure the gaps between each coil do not exceed 40mm and that the coil hangs over the ledge by approx. 12mm. 

Our Huck Bird Control section has a range of bird deterrent products including bird netting, bird deterrent spikes and welded mesh fencing for solar panel protection. We also stock all the relevant fixtures and fixings that you will need to install an effective bird deterrent solution.
