Architectural Ropes
With our wide range of wire ropes, terminations and accessories we can offer solutions to almost every architectural challenge.
Our range comprises stainless steel cables in diameters from 0.62 mm up to 26 mm in various configurations:
Single-strand constructions: 1 x 7, 1 x 19, 1 x 37
Wire ropes with wire core: 6 x 7 + WC, 6 x 19 + WC, 6 x 36 + WC
Wire ropes with fiber core: 6 x 36 + FC, 8 x 7 + FC
We manufacture inox rods in diameters from 5.3 to 21.9 with optional external threads and wrench flats.
Wire ropes and rods can be assembled with thread ends in different designs and configurations, including:
Standard external and internal thread ends, swaged
Vissline external thread ends
Univiss Plus external thread ends
External and internal thread for on-site assembly
Cable and tie rod assemblies need a tensioning device on at least one end. If this is not possible, we can supply a range of turnbuckles that can be inserted between the ends.
Clevis and eye ends can be attached to cable assemblies to attach them to eye brackets or other anchoring.
Our Forte program consists of external threads, turnbuckles and elegantly designed clevises for heavy loads.
Webnet
Webnet is a wire mesh fabricated out of woven stainless steel strands. It is weather resistant, extremely robust and requires virtually no maintenance. Webnet is suitable for interior and exterior applications. Usually installed between openings in structural railings in stairways, it provides stability and clear guidance. On facades, it can serve as a support or trellis for climbing and twining plants or provide accents as dividing elements in large spaces. A great advantage of WebNet is its robust strength but delicate appearance, especially in zoo enclosures or as protective nets, where it's visibility is minimal.
WebNet elements are fabricated by Jakob Rope Systems in our factory according to customer specifications. Therefore there are virtually no limits to shape and size.
Webnet can be supplied in any color in the RAL spectrum. Colors can be used to highlight WebNet areas as architectural and graphic design elements, or integrate seamlessly into the surrounding structure. For zoo enclosures or ball stop fences, a black dye color option helps to make the net fabric even more difficult to see.
Webnet consists of AISI 316 and AISI 316L stainless steel. It has been assessed according to standard specifications and subjected to many test measurements.
Green Solutions
Green FaCades – the support of vines and climbing plants in a vertical structure to contribute environmental performance and benefits – gain new dimensions with Jakob Rope Systems.
With more than 30 years of experience, Jakob can advise owners and designers on the use of cost-efficient, adaptable and beautiful trellising solutions that can provide passive environmental services and performance benefits.
Green FaCades that are both durable, functional and aesthetically pleasing require thoughtful and thorough planning. An understanding of the micro-climatic context of the project is needed, including wind and sun exposure data, detailed knowledge of architectural and structural characteristics and access to the facade for plant maintenance
Consideration should be given to the appropriate choice of plant varieties and their needs for irrigation, nutrition and light. Attention to these criteria can enhance the environmental performance services of the green faCade.
The Jakob GreenSolutions range consists of three categories of products, each including components that that can satisfy the varying needs of green facade projects according to their size, complexity and demands.
These categories are:
Modular greening systems
GreenKit Package
Customized solutions.
Habegger Cable Hoists
When heavy loads have to be moved safely and cost-effectively, original Habegger products are the first choice. Habegger has been a part of Jakob Rope Systems since 2021.
In 1951, Willi Habegger invented the manual wire rope hoist. Since then, the name Habegger has become synonymous with an extensive range of products. Today, Habegger manufactures wire rope hoists and offers products and services for the hoisting and lifting sector. In 2016, Jakob Rope Systems acquired Habegger and in 2021, the companies fully merged.
The original HIT wire rope hoist, was based on Willy Habegger's original invention and continuously improved since 1951. All HIT wire rope hoists are based on the same functional principle: A wire rope of any length is guided through two pairs of clamping jaws in a straight line. When the drive lever is moved back and forth, the wire is moved forwards or backwards (according to the selection) smoothly and without slippage.
From the small and lightweight HIT-06 over the powerful yet compact allrounder HIT-16 up to the HIT-32 powerhouse with a pulling force in excess of 3 tonnes, these manual hoists cover a range of uses.

Ropes made of steel wire are among the highest load-bearing elements in lifting and hoisting technology. The distribution of load across numerous individual wires guarantees great operational safety andhigh operating speeds, running quietly and maintaining a maximum efficiency ratio between their weight and carrying capacity.

The GreenKit net trellis consists of a stainless steel net, which is attached to the wall at mounting points with spacers. The flexible net construction allows four different variants of suspension: Mesh lying narrow or lying wide and mesh standing narrow or standing wide. Visually, GreenKit net adds a noble accent to free walls and facades, which can be significantly enhanced with more green. The positioning in height and width is variable and can be used as required. Thus, plants can grow up on it from the ground or be placed from a plant pot to the GreenKit net.
