FAQs

What is the mesh size of the netting?

The mesh size of the netting is 5mm x 7mm.

How much clearance does the frame provide above the pond?

The frame provides approximately 35cm (34.5cm specified) of clearance above the pond surface.

Can this frame be used for sunken ponds?

Yes, it can be placed directly on the land around sunken pond systems.

What material is the frame made from?

The frame is constructed from 19mm aluminum tubing.

Is the netting pre-attached?

No, the netting is provided separately and attached to the frame using the included cable ties.

What should I do if I need a size not listed?

You can call their customer service team at 01285 760505, as they may be able to assist with custom orders.

Is the frame heavy?

The frame is designed to be lightweight, making it easy to move or break down for storage.

Troubleshooting

Frame is wobbly after assembly

Ensure all aluminum tubes are fully connected and that cable ties securing the netting are tightened evenly on all sides to provide tension.

Netting does not fit tightly

Adjust the placement and tension of the cable ties. You may need to overlap the netting slightly in corners to achieve a snug fit.

Pond size does not match available frame sizes

Contact the customer service team at 01285 760505 to inquire about custom sizing options or alternative solutions.

Herons are still managing to access the pond

Ensure the frame is securely anchored if placed on the ground and that there are no gaps in the netting or at the base of the frame.
