FAQs

What is included in the kit?

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

What are the dimensions of the internal height?

The internal height of the Premium Walk-In Cages is an impressive 1.9m (approximately 6'3").

Can I add a door to the cage?

Yes, doors are available for purchase as a separate door kit if you require easier access than lifting the netting.

What type of netting options are available?

You can choose from Bird/Fruit Netting (20mm mesh), Soft Butterfly Netting (5mm x 7mm mesh), Green Bird Netting (19mm mesh), or a 'Frame Only' option if you have your own netting.

How do I ensure stability in windy conditions?

For extra stability, especially in windy areas, it is recommended to use heavy-duty pipe clips, which can be purchased separately.

What should I do in case of snow?

If snow is forecast, it is important to remove the roof netting. The covers are not permanently fitted, making this easy to do.

How do I clean the cage?

The aluminium tubing and steel components are durable. Periodically check fittings for tightness and wipe down with a damp cloth if necessary. Netting can be gently cleaned with water.

Are custom sizes available?

Yes, custom sizes are available. Please allow up to three days for a response during peak times if you submit a cage enquiry form.

Troubleshooting

Frame feels unstable

Ensure all steel joints are securely tightened with the provided Allen key. Use the included steel pegs to anchor the frame firmly to the ground. For very windy locations, consider purchasing and installing heavy-duty pipe clips.

Netting is difficult to attach

Ensure you are using the provided net clamps correctly. Position the clamps along the tubing and secure the netting through them. Ensure the netting is taut but not overstretched.

Cage is not the correct size

This model is available in multiple standard sizes. If you require a custom size, please contact the manufacturer directly for a quote and lead time. Check the product specifications for available dimensions.

Accessing plants is difficult

The covers are designed to be easily lifted using the net clamps. Ensure you are lifting the netting rather than trying to reach awkwardly under it. If a door is desired for more convenient access, a separate door kit can be purchased.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent protection against a variety of garden pests.
  • Spacious interior with high headroom for comfortable gardening.
  • Robust construction using quality materials ensures longevity.
  • Multiple netting options cater to specific crop protection needs.
  • Available in various sizes to fit different garden spaces.

Cons

  • Doors are not included and must be purchased separately.
  • May require additional heavy-duty pipe clips for stability in very windy areas.
  • Netting needs to be removed during heavy snowfall to prevent damage.
  • Custom size requests may have a response delay during peak periods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Assembly is straightforward, with clear instructions included in the kit. The frame is constructed from 27mm aluminium tubing connected by galvanised steel joints. The kit includes an Allen key for tightening fittings and steel pegs to secure the frame to the ground. Net clamps are provided for attaching the netting.

Compatibility: The cages are designed to be standalone structures. While doors are sold separately as a kit, the main frame is compatible with standard netting sizes provided. For extra stability in high-wind areas, the use of heavy-duty pipe clips (sold separately) is recommended.

Care: To maintain the cage, periodically check that all joints are secure. If snow is forecast, it is crucial to remove the roof netting to prevent structural damage from the weight. The aluminium tubing and steel components are designed for outdoor use, but keeping them clean will prolong their life. The netting can be carefully cleaned with water if necessary.
