Creating a treehouse with a net

Among the equipment and tips for creating a raised garden shed, or a treehouse, the outdoor net is a practical and aesthetic solution.

Create a net platform

Building a large solid wood platform can be expensive. In addition, large solid wood planks are heavy, which increases the load to be supported.

Using a catamaran net as a suspended floor reduces the weight of the construction and saves on the cost of wood. The look of the cabin becomes original and unique with this platform partly made of a net.

Firmly fixed to the joists and beams that form the structure of the cabin, the suspended net is secure and highly resistant to the weight of children.
Corderie Gautier's habitation nets can withstand a load of 700 kg / m2.
Make sure to choose sufficiently strong wooden beams.

This airy floor formed by the net is very popular with children.
They can see through the meshes of the catamaran net and feel as if they are suspended above the ground, almost as if they are flying between the branches of the tree.

Create a net railing

To climb into the treehouse, or move around it safely, it is highly recommended to install a railing.

The railing must provide real fall protection, but must also withstand bad weather and climatic hazards. Most often, expensive stainless steel railings are used for outdoor applications.

An alternative that is both economical and very safe: the net railing.

The net railing secures both the stairs used to go up and down the cabin, and the balcony or platform.
The small, tight meshes of the net prevent children from passing even an arm or a leg. Toys, balls, and other cuddly toys will also not pass through the meshes of the net.

For parents, this is a guarantee of serenity, knowing that children can play without risking a bad fall.

Large cabins for tourism

Tourism professionals who are lucky enough to own a large plot of land in a quiet and natural area can also create a large treehouse to rent to holidaymakers.

The technical constraints here are more numerous, as the trees that will support the cabin must be very large and robust. Old oaks, plane trees, or beeches are often preferred.

The outdoor net, whether used to form a floor or as a railing, is a real asset for tourism professionals.
Aesthetic, customizable in shape and size, very safe and weather-resistant, it allows for many design and decoration ideas.
