Its key benefit is providing ample, easy-access space to protect crops from birds, butterflies, and other pests.

FAQs

What type of netting is included?

The specific netting depends on the model chosen. Options include Bird/Fruit Netting (20mm mesh) for general bird protection and allowing pollination, and Soft Butterfly Netting (5mm x 7mm mesh) specifically for deterring cabbage white butterflies. A 'No Netting - Frame Only' option is also available.

How do I assemble the cage?

Assembly involves connecting the aluminium tubing with the provided steel joiners and pegs. Clear, step-by-step instructions are included in the kit. An Allen key is provided for tightening connectors.

Are doors included with the cage?

No, doors are not included as standard. Separate door kits are available for purchase if you require easier access.

Can I get a custom-sized cage?

Yes, custom sizes are available. Please contact customer service for a quote and to discuss your specific requirements. Allow up to three days for a response during peak times.

What should I do if heavy snow is forecast?

If heavy snow is forecast, it is recommended to remove the roof netting. This prevents excessive weight from accumulating on the structure, which could cause damage.

What are the dimensions of the cage?

The cages are available in various widths and lengths. The internal height is consistently 1.9m (6'3"). Specific dimensions will vary based on the model purchased.

What materials are the cages made from?

The cages are constructed from strong, black powder-coated 27mm diameter aluminium tubing, with durable galvanised steel joiners.

Troubleshooting

Cage is wobbly or unstable

Ensure all steel connectors are fully tightened using the Allen key. Verify that the steel pegs are securely hammered into the ground. For very windy locations, consider using heavy-duty pipe clips to further anchor the base.

Netting is difficult to attach

Ensure the net clamps are correctly oriented and fully engaged. Loosen the clamp slightly if needed, position the netting, and then re-tighten. Ensure the netting is taut but not stretched to the point of tearing.

The structure seems too low for tall plants

Confirm you have purchased the correct size cage; the internal height is consistently 1.9m across models. For taller plants, consider placing them within the cage once they reach a manageable height or if the cage is intended for bush-style fruits and vegetables.

Missing components in the kit

Double-check all packaging materials. If components are genuinely missing, contact customer support with your order details and a list of the missing parts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Assembly is straightforward, with a comprehensive kit including aluminium tubing, steel pegs, cable ties, steel connectors, net clamps, an Allen key, and clear instructions. Ensure you have a level area for setup. Use the provided steel pegs to secure the base of the cage to the ground. Attach the netting using the supplied net clamps, ensuring a snug fit without over-tightening.

Compatibility: This cage is designed for outdoor use in gardens and allotments. It is compatible with various types of netting, and options are available for 'No Netting - Frame Only' if you wish to use your own materials. Ensure the chosen size fits your designated garden space.

Care: Regularly check the netting for any tears or damage and repair promptly. Periodically inspect the frame and connectors for stability. In winter, or if heavy snow is forecast, it is recommended to remove the roof netting to prevent excessive weight from damaging the structure. Clean the aluminium tubing with a damp cloth if necessary; avoid abrasive cleaners. Store netting indoors during the off-season if possible.
