Troubleshooting
Cage is unstable in windy conditions.
Ensure all steel pegs are securely driven into the ground. For added stability, consider using heavy-duty pipe clips (sold separately) to further secure the frame to the ground or to adjacent structures.
Netting is difficult to attach.
Ensure you are using the provided netting clamps. Gently stretch the netting taut before securing it with the clamps. Check that the frame tubes are clean for optimal clamp grip.
Aluminium tubing appears discolored.
The black powder coating provides protection. Minor scuffs can occur. Clean with a damp cloth. If significant damage is present, contact customer support.
Missing components.
Carefully re-check the packaging. If components are confirmed missing, contact Gardening Naturally customer support with your order details and the specific part needed.
