Product Information

Full details

This guide is for gardeners seeking robust protection for their fruit and vegetable crops from pests like birds and butterflies. The key benefit is the durable, spacious walk-in design allowing easy access for tending plants. A potential caveat is that doors are sold separately. These cages are constructed from heavy-duty black powder-coated aluminum tubing with strong galvanized steel joiners, offering a substantial 1.9m (6'3") internal height. Available in various sizes and netting options (or frame-only), they provide a customizable solution for garden and allotment protection.

FAQs

What 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 prefer to use your own netting.

What are the dimensions of the cage?

This specific model is 2m wide and 7m long. The internal height is a generous 1.9m (6'3"). Other sizes are available.

Is a door included with the cage?

No, doors are sold separately as a door kit. You can purchase one if you require easy access without lifting the netting.

How do I assemble the cage?

The cage is designed for simple assembly with clear instructions provided. It includes aluminum tubing, steel connectors, pegs, netting clamps, cable ties, an Allen key, and end bungs.

Can I use my own netting?

Yes, the 'No Netting - Frame Only' option allows you to use your own preferred netting material.

What should I do if snow is forecast?

If heavy snow is anticipated, it is recommended to remove the roof netting to prevent excessive weight from damaging the structure.

How do I get a custom size cage?

For custom sizes, please use the cage enquiry form. Please allow up to three days for a response during peak times.

How can I ensure stability in windy conditions?

The cage comes with steel pegs for ground anchoring. For extra stability in particularly windy areas, we recommend using heavy-duty pipe clips to further secure the frame.

Troubleshooting

Cage wobbles or feels unstable

Ensure all steel connectors are tightened securely. Verify that the steel pegs are firmly inserted into the ground. For very windy locations, consider adding extra ground anchoring or using heavy-duty pipe clips.

Netting is difficult to attach

Check that the correct netting clamps are being used for the tubing size. Ensure the netting is spread evenly before securing it. Use the provided cable ties for additional fastening points if needed.

Tubes do not fit together snugly

Confirm you are using the correct connectors for the specific tubes. Ensure there is no debris or damage at the connection points. Gently tap the tubes together if needed, but avoid excessive force.

Netting becomes damaged

Minor tears can often be repaired with strong tape suitable for outdoor use or by sewing. For significant damage, consider replacing the netting section or the entire netting kit.
