PART 4: INSTALLATION
A. Installation shall be per manufacturer's recommendations and requirements
Netting Installation Instructions
The following pages include the detail specifications required to build the infrastructure
and installing the netting for a barrier netting system. Listed below are the steps in
chronological order.
1. Review specifications and material. Layout material for each pole. If possible,
drill all frame poles, including the vertical cable, prior to setting them in the ground.
2. Install vertical support cable on each pole. Using a hoist, tighten the vertical as
tightly as possible. Install all other hardware on each pole as required. Be sure to
include lock washers on all bolts.
3. Run out horizontal cables on the ground from one end to the other. Hang the
horizontal cables at one end. While hanging the horizontal cables, also hang the
down guy cable.
4. Moving along the line of poles place the horizontal cables in the top grove of the
tree bolt clamps and finger tighten only. The cable must be able to slide back and
forth, but not fall out of the clamp. Continue to last pole.
5. The helical pier ground anchors need to be installed, usually 7' to 8' behind each
end pole. Once installed and prior to tightening the horizontal cables, pull the
down guy cables tight and fasten them to the anchor with the performed cable
grips. Make sure the end pole is straight and maybe even leaning very slightly
towards the anchor. The down guy cables must be installed at each end and
tightened prior to tightening the horizontal cables.
6. Tighten the horizontal cables using a hoist. Pull them to the recommended
tension. Fasten them to the eye bolt or eye nut with a performed cable grip.
7. Lay out the netting. The netting is packaged in a box. The snaps will be in the
box as well. There will be a tag on the netting near the top of the box. It will
identify the corner of the netting. Attach the corner of the netting to the
appropriate pole by snapping it to the vertical cable, feed out the netting along the
line of poles to the opposite end.
8. Once the netting is stretched out, identify the top, center and bottom rib lines.
Make sure the rib lines are on the side of the net facing the poles. Start placing the
snaps on the border and rib lines. Try and install them all in the same direction.
Place the snaps on the perimeter border every two to three feet, or approximately
every four to six spaces. Place the snaps on the interior verticals and horizontals
three feet apart or approximately every six spaces.
City of Fort Collins Section 02820 — Fences and Gates
Park Planning & Development Division Page 3 of 4
9. CAUTION: Do not try to install the netting during high winds. Begin
hanging the netting at one end on the top horizontal. Fasten at least one snap on
thle end vertical. Continue to fasten the netting as you move along. When you
relach the next pole, pull the netting tight and fasten the horizontal rib line to the
vertical support cable. Tighten the three bolt clamps as you arrive at each pole.
Now you can fasten the center rib line to the center horizontal support cable. Do
the same thing in the next section. Do not fasten the bottom of the net until the
entire top and bottom are snapped into place. The netting should be tight when
installed and snapping the corners in place may require some tugging. You will
notice some small spots where the netting is gathered, (spider webs). Small
strands hooking onto other strands cause this. Simply pull them apart. They will
eventually pull themselves apart if you can't reach them.
Be sure to tighten all bolts and to use lock washers. The netting vibrates in the wind
and will loosen bolts if not tightened properly.
