FAQs

What is included in the garden cage kit?

The kit typically includes aluminum tubing, steel pegs, cable ties, steel connectors, net clamps, an Allen key, end bungs for tubes, and assembly instructions. Netting is included based on the specific variant purchased, or it can be a frame-only option.

How do I choose the right netting for my plants?

For general bird protection on soft fruits like strawberries and raspberries, Bird/Fruit Netting (20mm mesh) is suitable. For preventing butterflies from laying eggs on brassicas, the Soft Butterfly Netting (5mm x 7mm mesh) is recommended. Green Bird Netting offers an alternative to black netting that blends with foliage.

Can I get a different size than what's listed?

Yes, custom sizes are available. Please inquire through the provided cage enquiry form. Note that custom size requests may have a response delay during peak times.

Is a door included with the cage?

No, doors are sold separately. You will need to purchase a separate door kit if you require one.

How do I access the inside of the cage to work on my plants?

The covers (netting) are not permanently fitted and can be lifted using the provided net clamps, allowing easy access to the beds for tending to your plants.

What should I do if heavy snow is forecast?

If snow is forecast, it is advisable to remove the roof netting to prevent the structure from being damaged by the weight of the snow.

How do I clean the cage?

You can clean the aluminum frame with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.

Troubleshooting

Cage frame feels unstable.

Ensure all steel connectors are tightened securely. Verify that the steel pegs are firmly inserted into the ground. Consider using heavy-duty pipe clips for added stability, especially in windy areas.

Netting is sagging or loose.

Re-tension the netting and secure it more firmly using the provided cable ties and net clamps. Ensure the netting is stretched evenly across the frame.

Difficulty assembling a particular joint.

Double-check that the correct tubing and connector are being used as per the instructions. Ensure the tubing ends are fully inserted into the connectors. Use the Allen key to tighten securely.

Birds or pests are still finding a way in.

Inspect the netting for any tears or gaps. Ensure the netting is secured all the way around the base to prevent entry from underneath. Consider if the mesh size is appropriate for the specific pest.
