FAQs

What is included in the standard kit?

The kit typically includes aluminum 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 model chosen (e.g., Green Bird Netting) or can be omitted if 'No Netting' is selected.

Are doors included with the cage?

No, doors are not included in the standard cage kit. A separate door kit must be purchased if you require a dedicated door for easier access.

Can I get a cage in a custom size?

Yes, custom sizes are available. Please use the cage enquiry form or contact customer service to discuss your specific requirements. Allow for potential delays during peak times.

What is the difference between the netting types?

The 'Bird/Fruit Netting' has a 20mm mesh to deter birds while allowing pollinators. 'Soft Butterfly Netting' has a finer 5mm x 7mm mesh to specifically stop cabbage white butterflies from laying eggs on brassicas. 'Green Bird Netting' is similar to the standard bird netting but designed to blend with garden foliage.

How do I install the cage for maximum stability?

Follow the provided instructions for assembly. For areas prone to high winds, it is recommended to use heavy-duty pipe clips (not always included) to secure the frame firmly to the ground.

What should I do in case of heavy snow?

If heavy snow is forecast, it is advised to remove the roof netting. This prevents the buildup of excessive weight on the structure, which could cause damage.

How do I access the crops inside the cage if I don't have a door?

The netting covers are designed to be lifted. Using the provided net clamps, you can lift sections of the netting to access the beds for working on your plants.

Troubleshooting

Cage feels unstable in wind

Ensure all steel joiners are securely fastened. For extra stability, use heavy-duty pipe clips to anchor the frame to the ground or a suitable structure.

Netting not staying in place

Ensure the provided net clamps are used correctly to secure the netting to the frame. Consider using additional cable ties for a tighter fit.

Difficulty accessing the cage interior

Remember that doors are sold separately. If a convenient entry is needed, ensure a door kit has been purchased and installed. The netting can be lifted using the clamps for access if no door is fitted.

Pests are still getting into the cage

Double-check the mesh size of your chosen netting against the pest. Ensure there are no gaps or tears in the netting and that it is securely fastened to the ground around the base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Assembly is designed to be straightforward using the provided aluminum tubing, steel joiners, pegs, cable ties, net clamps, and an Allen key. Follow the included instructions carefully. For enhanced stability in windy locations, consider using heavy-duty pipe clips (sold separately).

Compatibility: The cage is designed to be a standalone structure. Netting options include Bird/Fruit Netting and Soft Butterfly Netting. The 'Frame Only' option allows users to fit their own netting. Doors are available as a separate purchase. Custom sizes can be accommodated; please inquire.

Care: To maintain the cage, regularly check that connections are secure. If snow is forecast, it is recommended to remove the roof netting to prevent excessive weight from accumulating. Clean the frame and netting as needed with a damp cloth. Store netting during the off-season if possible to prolong its lifespan.
