Every net below was measured and custom-shaped on site. Use the filters to see how Ocean Blue, Jet Black and Desert Sand sit in different backyard settings — then check your price when you’re ready.

Which Color Should I Start With?

Ocean Blue
Start here if you want the net to relate to blue water and tile.
Jet Black
Start here if you want it to coordinate with rockwork, dark finishes or dense landscaping.
Desert Sand
Start here if you want it to coordinate with travertine, pale coping or warm neutral decking.

These are starting points, not rules — colors can appear different with sunlight, shade, water color, pool finish and screen settings. A Katchakid specialist can show you installations with surroundings similar to yours.

Katchakid pool safety nets are available in Ocean Blue, Jet Black and Desert Sand. There is no universally correct choice. Consider the water, pool finish, coping, deck and surrounding landscape — and decide whether you want the net to relate visually to the water or sit more quietly against the surroundings.

Ocean Blue

Ocean Blue is the most recognizably pool-related of the three colors. Over blue or aqua water it lets the net relate to the pool itself rather than the deck — especially with blue tile or a cool-toned interior finish. Against very pale travertine or cream coping the perimeter may stay more visible even while the main field blends with the water. Consider it when you want the net to feel like part of the pool.

Often works well with: Blue or aqua water; blue tile; mid-tone pool interiors; owners who want the net to relate visually to the water.

Jet Black

Jet Black gives the installation a deeper, more architectural look. It sits quietly against dark waterline tile, natural rock, dense planting and shaded water — and in many lights reads as deep charcoal rather than flat black. Where the deck is pale it draws a cleaner, more defined outline, a look that suits contemporary settings. Consider it when you would rather the net relate to the landscape and architecture than to the water.

Often works well with: Darker pool finishes; natural rock and waterfalls; grey or black details; dense green landscaping; contemporary settings.

Desert Sand

Desert Sand is the lightest and warmest of the three. Rather than blending with the water, it relates to travertine, limestone, beige pavers, cream coping and warm stucco — softening the transition between pool and deck. Across deep-blue water it can be more noticeable than Ocean Blue; that is the trade: it coordinates with the surroundings rather than disappearing into the water. Consider it when the deck and coping are the strongest features in the backyard.

Often works well with: Travertine; beige or cream decking; pale coping; lighter pool finishes; warm neutral surroundings.

Choosing? Look at the largest surfaces first

The water and interior set how the net’s main field reads. The coping and deck decide how the perimeter appears. Rockwork, walls and planting can carry Jet Black or Desert Sand — and strong sun or shade can change all of it across one backyard. You are not choosing a “correct” color; you are choosing which major surface you want the net to relate to.

One simple choosing rule: look at the largest visible surfaces. The water, interior finish, coping, deck and landscape occupy far more visual space than small decorative details. Decide whether the net should relate more closely to the water or to the surrounding deck and landscape.
