Cricket Practice Nets in Chennai
₹450 – ₹550 per kg
A cricket practice net has to stop a leather ball hit at full pace, over and over, for years. We build practice cages as complete units — roof panel, three side panels, wire rope headline and MS or GI frame — in 2mm nylon for school and terrace nets and 3mm–4mm for academies and clubs. Mesh stays at 25mm–40mm so a ball cannot squeeze through a stretched square.

Common questions
What does safety net thickness in mm actually mean?
It is the diameter of the twine the net is made from — 1mm is thread-fine, 5mm feels like rope. Thickness decides strength; mesh size (the gap between knots) decides what the net can stop. Both matter, and any honest supplier will quote you both.
What is the price of safety nets per kg?
1mm and 1.5mm nets start from ₹455 and go up to ₹750 per kg. From 2mm to 5mm the range is ₹450 to ₹550 per kg. The final rate depends on twine type, mesh size, colour and order quantity, and we confirm it in writing before dispatch.
Which thickness should I use for a balcony?
For pigeon and bird screening, 1mm or 1.5mm is enough. For a child or pet safety net, use 1.5mm or 2mm — it takes weight and pushing without stretching. Anything advertised as fall protection for people should be 3mm or above.
Nylon or HDPE — which is better?
Nylon is softer, stronger for its diameter and better where a ball has to be absorbed rather than bounced. HDPE is stiffer, cheaper per kilo and stands up to direct sun very well. For sports we lean nylon; for long-term outdoor screening HDPE is often the smarter buy.
Cricket Practice Nets supply and installation in Chennai — what we install, how we price it and when we can come
Dedicated installation teams across Chennai localities and every major city in Tamil Nadu & Andhra Pradesh. In Chennai we work mainly on apartments, independent houses, schools and commercial buildings. The job we are called for most here is balcony safety nets, pigeon nets and bird-proofing. Every quote follows a free site measurement — nothing is estimated over the phone.
Local site conditions we plan for in Chennai
Every fixing uses stainless steel hardware and UV-stabilised netting so the installation survives sun, rain and coastal wind. That decision is made on site, not in the office, because the frame material and working height change the hardware more than the netting itself.
Buildings and openings we cover
- Balconies, windows, French windows and grill-front openings
- Duct shafts, light wells, stilt parking and lift-lobby gaps
- Terraces, parapets, staircase voids and open atriums
- Schools, hostels, factories, warehouses and sports grounds
Chennai neighbourhoods and nearby stretches we reach
All main residential and commercial pockets of Chennai. Dedicated installation teams cover Chennai localities and every major city in Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.
