FAQs

What is the internal height of the cage?

The internal height is an impressive 1.9m (6'3"), providing ample space to move around and tend to your plants comfortably.

Do I need to purchase a door separately?

Yes, doors are sold separately. If you require a door for your walk-in cage, please purchase a door kit in addition to the cage frame.

What kind of netting is best for protecting against butterflies?

For protection against cabbage white butterflies, the Soft Butterfly Netting with a mesh size of 5mm x 7mm is recommended. This fine mesh prevents butterflies from laying eggs while maintaining good air circulation.

Can I use my own netting with this frame?

Yes, the cage is available as a 'Frame Only' option if you prefer to use your own netting material. The frame is designed to accommodate various netting types.

How do I secure the cage in windy conditions?

The cage comes with steel pegs for ground anchoring. For extra stability in particularly windy areas, it is recommended to use heavy-duty pipe clips (sold separately) to further secure the structure.

What is included in the kit?

The kit typically includes aluminium tubing, steel pegs, cable ties, steel connectors, net clamps, an Allen key, end bungs for tubes, and assembly instructions. Netting is included based on the specific variant chosen.

What should I do if snow is forecast?

If snow is forecast, it is advisable to remove the roof netting to prevent excessive weight from accumulating on the structure, which could cause damage.

Are custom sizes available?

Yes, custom sizes are available. Please contact customer service to inquire about custom dimensions. Allow for potential delays in delivery during peak times for custom orders.

Troubleshooting

Cage structure feels unstable

Ensure all steel connectors are fully tightened using the provided Allen key. Verify that steel pegs are securely hammered into the ground. For very windy locations, consider using heavy-duty pipe clips for additional stability.

Netting is difficult to attach securely

Utilize the provided net clamps to secure the netting to the aluminium tubing. Ensure the netting is taut but not overstretched to avoid tearing. Cable ties can also be used for reinforcement.

Small pests are still getting into the cage

Check the netting for any tears or gaps, especially near the base and along seams. Ensure the netting is properly secured to the ground and all entry points are sealed. The appropriate mesh size netting for the specific pest is crucial.

Parts seem to be missing from the kit

Carefully re-check the packaging and all components. If parts are genuinely missing, contact customer support with your order details.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Assembly is straightforward, with clear instructions provided in the kit. The cage is constructed using aluminium tubing, steel connectors, and pegs. An Allen key is included for tightening connections. Ensure all parts are securely fastened for optimal stability. For added security in windy areas, consider using heavy-duty pipe clips (sold separately).

Compatibility: This cage is designed for use with various types of netting, including the specifically offered Bird/Fruit Netting, Soft Butterfly Netting, and Green Bird Netting. It can also accommodate user-supplied netting. Doors are available as a separate purchase.

Care: To maintain the cage, periodically check connections for tightness. Clean the aluminium tubing and steel components with a damp cloth as needed. It is advisable to remove the roof netting during heavy snowfall to prevent structural strain. Ensure netting is properly secured to the frame to prevent pests from finding entry points.
