Invisible grills across Banashankari — BSK 1st, 2nd and 3rd Stage, Padmanabhanagar, Kathriguppe and out towards Uttarahalli and Girinagar. Almost everything here is an independent house with a terrace on top, and that terrace is usually the first thing a family asks us about.
What Banashankari changes about the job
The same crew and the same materials everywhere in Bangalore — what changes is the building stock, and what that means for how the job is fitted.
A terrace is a different job from a balcony, and it is worth knowing why before you get a price. A balcony has concrete on three sides to anchor into; an open terrace often has a low parapet and nothing above it, so a full-height cable grill needs a frame to tension against. On most Banashankari terraces a safety net is both cheaper and better suited than a grill — we will tell you that on the visit rather than quoting you the more expensive option by default.
Banashankari is a family-housing area that spreads a long way, from the older stages close to the temple out to the newer builds around Uttarahalli. Almost everything is an independent house with a usable terrace on top, and the terrace is what gets asked about: box cricket for the children, a drying area, or simply somewhere the grandchildren can be let out without anybody standing at the edge. Terrace and utility-balcony work is a bigger share of what we do here than anywhere else in the south of the city.

Why our invisible grills hold up
With invisible grills, the specification is easy to fake and hard to see. Cable grade, spacing and tension are what actually stop a fall, and all three are invisible in a photograph. We fit only 316 cable, hold the 2-inch spacing across the whole run, and name the grade in writing on your quote — so what you paid for is written down before anyone drills a hole.

Installed and cleaned up Our fitters set the anchor points into the parapet edge and slab, run and tension each cable in turn, then walk the full span checking spacing and tightness before sealing the holes.
Questions we get in Banashankari
Should we use invisible grills or a net on our Banashankari terrace?
On an open terrace with no structure above it, a net is usually the right answer — it covers the full area, and it does not need a frame built to tension cable against. Invisible grills are the better choice for the balconies and windows below. We measure both on the same visit and quote whichever actually suits each opening.
Which parts of Banashankari do you cover?
All three Banashankari stages are covered, along with Padmanabhanagar, Kathriguppe, Girinagar, Chikkalasandra and Uttarahalli. There is no travel charge inside Bangalore.
Will the grill actually be invisible?
Not literally — up close you can see the cable. From a few feet back, and from outside the building, the opening reads as open. That is the whole reason people choose it over an MS grill.
Is 2-inch spacing safe for a small child?
Yes. Two inches is narrower than a toddler's head breadth, which is the standard the spacing is set against, and the cable is under tension so it does not spread apart under a push.
Does drilling damage the balcony?
Anchors go into the structural parapet edge and the slab soffit, not the tile face. The holes are sealed and touched up as part of the job.
How long does an invisible grill last in Bangalore?
316-grade stainless does not rust in this climate, and the cable is under tension rather than under load, so there is nothing that wears in normal use. The practical life is far longer than a painted MS grill in the same position.
What does an invisible grill cost in Bangalore?
It is quoted per square foot of opening, and the figure depends on the size and how the anchors have to be set rather than on your area of the city. The measurement is free, the price that comes out of it is fixed, and it does not change afterwards.
