Contraband netting is a physical barrier fitted across exercise yards, light wells, windows and open perimeters to stop drugs, mobile phones, weapons and other banned items being thrown or flown over the wall into a secure facility. London has one of the densest concentrations of prisons and high-security sites in the UK, and they are a constant target for “throw-overs” from surrounding streets and for drone drops. JG Pest Control installs and maintains contraband netting right across London and the M25 boroughs.
Protecting London’s secure estate
From HMP Belmarsh and HMP Thameside in Thamesmead to HMP Wandsworth, HMP Pentonville in Islington, HMP Wormwood Scrubs in Hammersmith, HMP Brixton and HMP/YOI Feltham, the capital holds some of the most high-profile custodial sites in the country - alongside secure hospitals, immigration removal centres near Heathrow, court holding suites and private secure facilities. Each has its own sightlines, yard layout and, in inner London, listed or period-building constraints, so every installation we carry out in the capital is surveyed and made to measure.
Built to stop throw-overs and drone drops
- Stops items being thrown in from neighbouring streets, rooftops and vehicles
- Acts as a barrier against drone-delivered packages dropped into yards and light wells
- Protects exercise yards, atriums, stairwells and open walkways
- Fire-retardant, highly chemical and weather resistant for year-round outdoor use
- Discreet, made-to-measure fit that suits the listed and period structures common across inner London
Made to measure for every London facility
No two London sites are the same - a Victorian wing in Pentonville calls for a very different system to a modern unit in Thamesmead or a high-rise light well in the City. We carry the full range of heavy-duty posts, brackets, strainers, bolts and fixings needed to span large yards or awkward inner-city gaps, and we install with minimal disruption to a live regime.
Discreet, professional installation
Our technicians are experienced working in and around live custodial and high-security environments across London, where discretion and reliability matter as much as the netting itself. We plan around each site’s access and daily timetable, and we guarantee every job we undertake.
London-wide coverage
We cover every London borough inside and around the M25 - from the City and central London out to Croydon, Bexley, Hounslow, Barnet, Enfield and the surrounding Home Counties fringe. Wherever your site sits in the capital, we can be on-site to survey it.
