BIRD WIRE
TM
Installation Instructions
Purpose
For ledges and areas where large birds
have been temporarily “resting”, and where
a low prole (low visibility) product is
essential.
Bird Pressure
Light to Medium
Bird Type
Pigeons, Seagulls and Larger Birds
Overview
An anti-perching system which offers
low cost, low visibility solution to bird
infestations. Bird Wire is a nylon coated
wire tensioned by springs between stainless
steel posts which, when mounted, creates
an unstable landing roosting area for pest
birds. Bird Wire carries a ve year warranty.
Installation Tips
1. Measure carefully the width of the ledge of surface
where the Bird Wire is to be installed.
2. The rst row of Bird Wire should be no more than
1” from the edge of the ledge.
3. Rows of Bird Wire should be no more than 3”
apart.
4. The last row of Bird Wire should be no more than
1” from the back wall.
5. It is best to stagger the height of rows of Bird Wire
to enhance the destabilized landing surface.
6. Bird Wire should not exceed 5ft. from post to post,
otherwise birds will be able to press down and
defeat the wire.
7. Bird Wire should be installed in 10ft. sections (or
less). A section is the length of wire between two
anchor posts, including a center post at 5ft. with a
spring and tie down crimp.

BIRD WIRE
TM
Installation Instructions
A.
B.
Spacing of Bird Wire:
1st row: 1” from edge of ledge.
2nd Row: 3” from 1st row.
3rd Row: 3” from 2nd row.
4th Row: 1” form back wall/vertical ledge.
For Concrete, Stone or Wood Surfaces:
Drill holes to anchor posts.
For Steel or Marble (or any of the above):
Use “Glue on” bases to anchor the posts.
1. Bird Wire Posts should be placed at
the beginning, 5ft mark and end of the
10ft ledge.
2a. Drilling: Once holes are drilled,
insert nylon anchor rivets into each
hole.
1. Insert 4.5” posts into the 1st row, 6”
posts into the 2nd row, 4.5” posts into
the 3rd row, and a 6” post into the 4th
row.
2. On the 5ft. mark: Make sure holes of
posts are turned so the wire can pass
through.
3. Hammer the posts into the anchor
rivets approximately 1”.
2b. Gluing: “Glue On” bases can
be adhered using an outdoor
construction adhesive. Glue should
be allowed to dry overnight Bases
can also be screwed into concrete,
etc. using small self-tapping screws
with appropriate anchors.
C.
D.
1. Insert 3.5” posts into the 1st row, 5”
posts into the 2nd row, 3.5” posts into
the 3rd row, and 5” posts into the 4th
row.
2. On the 5ft. mark: Make sure holes are
turned so the wire can pass through.
3. Posts placed into bases can also be
removed for cleaning purposes, etc.
and then reinserted..
Threading and Attaching Bird Wire:
1. Thread bird wire through copper crimp,
through the post and back through the
crimp. Using a crimping tool or pliers,
squeeze hard and secure the wire in
the crimp.
2. Thread wire through center post, and
then at the end of the section, thread
through a spring.
3. Once you have threaded through the
spring, repeat step #1 - threading
through the crimp. Note: Pull the
wire tight to secure. Always take the
tension on the spring end.
Alternate Springs:
Be sure to alternate the springs, i.e. Put
spring at the “end” of the 1st row, “beginning:” of the 2nd row, “end” of 3rd row, and
beginning” of the 4th row. Remember:
Springs should always be installed (and
wire terminated) every 10 feet for maximum
effect.
