FAQs

Do these hoops come with the netting?

No, the hoops and clips are provided, but netting and fleece must be purchased separately.

Can I leave these outside during winter?

Yes, they are made of aluminium and are designed to remain outside year-round.

What is the maximum width of netting I should use?

You need a minimum width of 2.4m to ensure the fabric reaches the ground on both sides.

Are tools required for assembly?

No, the hoops are designed for manual installation without tools.

What is the height of the hoop when installed?

The hoop stands 800mm high once installed in the ground.

Troubleshooting

Hoops are swaying in high wind

Ensure the ends are pushed deeper into the ground or soil; for raised beds, consider using small brackets to anchor the base of the hoops more securely.

Netting is drooping between hoops

Increase the number of hoops along the row or ensure the netting is pulled taut across the top before clipping.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to rust and weathering for long-term outdoor use
  • Simple assembly process requires no tools
  • Effective at deterring common garden pests and birds
  • Compatible with a variety of protective covers like fleece or netting
  • Lightweight yet sturdy design

Cons

  • Netting and fleece are sold separately
  • Requires a minimum of 2.4m width for netting to cover properly
  • Fixed semi-circular shape limits custom height adjustments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your tunnel, insert the base of each hoop into the ground at regular intervals along your garden row. Ensure the spacing is even to prevent the netting from sagging. When securing the fabric, start from one end and clip the netting firmly to the hoops, keeping the material taut to prevent wind damage.

Compatibility note: Ensure your chosen netting or fleece is at least 2.4m wide to allow enough slack to reach the ground on both sides of the 1.55m span. Maintenance is minimal; simply rinse the aluminium hoops with water to remove accumulated dirt during the off-season. They can be left in the ground or removed and stored flat for future use.
