FAQs

What is the internal height of the cage?

The internal height of the premium walk-in cages is 1.9 meters (approximately 6 feet 3 inches).

Are doors included with the cage?

No, doors are not included as standard. A separate door kit can be purchased if you require a dedicated entrance.

What type of netting is best for strawberries?

The 'Bird/Fruit Netting' with a 20mm x 20mm mesh size is ideal for strawberries, as it protects from birds while allowing bees to enter for pollination.

Can I use my own netting?

Yes, a 'No Netting - Frame Only' option is available if you prefer to use your own netting material.

How do I clean the cage?

You can clean the aluminum tubing and steel components with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What should I do in case of heavy snow?

It is recommended to remove the roof netting when heavy snow is forecast to prevent the structure from being damaged by the weight.

How do I order a custom-sized cage?

Please use the 'Cage Enquiry Form' provided, and allow up to three days for a response during peak times.

What comes in the standard kit?

The kit includes aluminum tubing, steel pegs, cable ties, steel connectors, net clamps, an Allen key, end bungs for tubes, and instructions. Netting is dependent on the chosen variant.

Troubleshooting

Cage structure feels unstable

Ensure all steel connectors are tightened securely. For very windy locations, consider using heavy-duty pipe clips (sold separately) to anchor the frame more firmly to the ground.

Netting is difficult to attach

Ensure the net clamps are correctly positioned on the tubing and that the netting is taut before securing. Refer to the included instructions for specific clamp usage.

Pests are still accessing crops

Double-check the mesh size of your chosen netting against the pest you are trying to exclude. Ensure there are no gaps or tears in the netting and that the cage is fully enclosed at the base.

Missing components

Carefully check all packaging. If a component is confirmed to be missing, contact customer support with details of the missing part.

Care: To maintain the cage's condition, clean the aluminum tubing and steel components with a damp cloth as needed.
