FAQs

Can the Square Portable Domed Cages be used in raised beds?

Yes, these cages fit well in raised beds and open soil. Their light frame makes them simple to move between growing areas as required.

Do the base and top rails help with strength?

Yes, both base and top rails keep the cage rigid and stable. This means it holds its shape when lifted or moved, even with covers attached.

Which netting is best for protecting against insects?

Veggiemesh insect mesh blocks most garden pests, while ultra-fine Veggiemesh is ideal for smaller insects such as whitefly and flea beetle.

Are the frames supplied with all fittings?

Frames ordered with netting include support bars, U pins, and clips. Orders without netting include the aluminium frame and joiners only.

Can I use garden fleece and netting together?

Yes, fleece can be used in winter for warmth and replaced with netting in spring or summer. The same frame supports both types of cover.

How many length options are available?

All square portable domed cages are 0.92m high and 1.2m wide and come in six different lengths. Choose the size that best fits your growing area.

What if the available sizes don't fit my needs?

If these sizes are not suitable, you can create your own using our hoops and accessories or contact us at sales@gardening-natural.com for assistance or to use our cage enquiry form.

Troubleshooting

Frame feels unstable

Ensure all joiners are fully pushed in and that the base and top rails are securely attached, making the structure rigid.

Netting is difficult to attach

Use the provided U pins and clips to secure the netting to the frame. Ensure the netting is pulled taut but not overly stretched.

Cage does not hold its shape when moved

Confirm that the base and top rails are correctly installed and locked in place to maintain rigidity.

Pests are still getting through the netting

Verify that the chosen netting mesh size is appropriate for the specific pests. Ensure there are no gaps or holes in the netting and that it is securely fastened to the ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The aluminium frame assembles quickly using the provided joiners. If ordering with netting, support bars, U pins, and clips are also included for attaching the cover securely. Base and top rails should be fitted to ensure the structure is rigid.

Compatibility: These cages are designed to fit well in raised beds and open soil plots. They are compatible with various covers, including Veggiemesh insect mesh, ultra-fine Veggiemesh, soft butterfly net, anti-bird netting, and garden fleece, allowing for customized protection.

Care: The aluminium frame can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Ensure covers are stored dry to prevent mildew. Check fittings periodically for tightness.
