FAQs

What is included in the standard kit?

The kit typically includes aluminium tubing, steel pegs, cable ties, steel connectors, net clamps, an Allen key, end bungs for tubes, and instructions. Netting is included unless you select the 'Frame Only' option.

How do I choose the right netting for my crops?

For soft fruits like strawberries and raspberries, Bird/Fruit Netting (20mm mesh) is ideal. For brassicas (cabbage, broccoli), the Soft Butterfly Netting (5mm x 7mm mesh) prevents egg-laying. Green Bird Netting is an alternative that blends with garden foliage.

Can I purchase a door separately?

Yes, doors are sold separately. Please check the available door kits to find one that fits your cage size.

What are the dimensions of the cage?

The internal height is 1.9m (6'3"). The length and width vary depending on the specific model purchased. Please refer to the product title or specifications for exact dimensions.

What should I do if snow is forecast?

If heavy snow is expected, it is recommended to remove the roof netting to prevent the weight from damaging the cage structure.

Is custom sizing available?

Yes, custom sizes may be available. Please contact customer service or use the cage enquiry form for custom size requests. Allow for potential response delays during peak times.

How is the cage secured to the ground?

The cage is secured using the provided steel pegs, which are driven into the ground through designated points on the frame.

Troubleshooting

Cage appears unstable in windy conditions.

Ensure all steel pegs are securely inserted into the ground. For extra stability, use heavy-duty pipe clips (sold separately) to reinforce connections, especially in very windy areas.

Netting is not fitting securely.

Ensure you are using the correct net clamps provided and that they are firmly attached to both the tubing and the netting. Check that the netting is taut before clamping.

Difficult to access the inside of the cage.

Consider purchasing a separate door kit for easier entry and exit. The net clamps also allow for sections of netting to be temporarily lifted for access.
