TIKOL.
The minimal stainless-steel bird deterrent.
Discreet, durable and effective protection for buildings, commercial premises and industrial settings. A slim profile of formed steel that discourages birds from perching without altering the architecture.
[ FIG. 01 // TIKOL T25 · T80 ]
01 — Why TIKOL
Designed to disappear. Built to last.
02
Weather resistant
Stainless steel made for outdoor use: sun, rain and temperature swings do not compromise its function.
03
Respectful of people, animals and the environment
No shocks, no chemicals, no blades: it discourages perching without harming birds.
04
Easy to install
Lightweight modules that fix quickly with common methods, no special equipment required.
05
Adapts to curved surfaces
The steel strip follows straight and curved profiles, arches and shaped cornices.
06
Less maintenance and cleaning
Fewer birds resting means less dirt and fewer cleaning interventions on protected surfaces.
02 — How it works
No comfortable perch. No harm.
[ FIG. 02 // APPROACH — ATTEMPT — EXIT ]
01
An unusable surface
The elements formed in the steel make perching unstable: the bird finds no comfortable spot and moves elsewhere.
02
Deterrence, not harm
The system discourages without injuring. No traps, no shocks: simply a surface where stopping isn’t worth it.
03
Minimal visual impact
From a few metres away, the metal profile merges with the lines of the building.

09 — FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
01Is it easy to install?
Yes. The modules are lightweight and fix with common methods such as screws, technical adhesives, silicone, cable ties or Velcro, depending on the surface.
02How long does it last?
TIKOL is made of work-hardened 301 stainless steel, a material chosen for outdoor use and long life. Actual durability depends on the installation setting.
03Does it harm birds?
No. The system uses no shocks, substances or blades: it makes the surface uncomfortable to perch on, so the bird moves elsewhere.
04Is it visually intrusive?
The profile is slim and metallic: from a few metres away it blends with the lines of the architecture.
05Where can it be installed?
On cornices, sills, signs, porticoes, balconies, beams, residential, commercial and industrial buildings, warehouses and sensitive architectural settings.
