FAQs

What is the internal height of the cage?

The internal height is 1.9 meters (approximately 6 feet 3 inches), allowing most users to stand and work comfortably inside.

Do I need to purchase a door separately?

Yes, doors are sold separately. If you require a door for easier access, you will need to purchase a door kit in addition to the cage frame and netting.

What types of netting are available?

Available netting options include Bird/Fruit Netting (20mm mesh), Soft Butterfly Netting (5mm x 7mm mesh), and Green Bird Netting (19mm mesh). A 'No Netting - Frame Only' option is also available.

How do I assemble the cage?

Assembly involves connecting the aluminum tubing with steel joiners, securing the frame with pegs, and attaching the netting using the provided clamps. Clear instructions are included in the kit.

Can I get a custom-sized cage?

Yes, custom sizes are available. Please use the cage enquiry form or contact customer support, and allow for potential response delays during peak times.

What should I do if heavy snow is forecast?

It is recommended to remove the roof netting if heavy snow is forecast to prevent potential damage to the cage structure from the weight of the snow.

How do I clean the cage?

The aluminum tubing can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaning agents.

Troubleshooting

Frame feels unstable

Ensure all steel connectors are fully tightened using the Allen key. Verify that steel pegs are securely hammered into the ground. For very windy locations, consider using additional heavy-duty pipe clips.

Netting is difficult to attach

Ensure you are using the correct net clamps as provided. Check that the netting is stretched taut but not overly so, which can make clamping difficult.

Pests are still accessing crops

Verify that the correct type of netting is being used for the specific pest. Ensure there are no gaps or tears in the netting and that it is securely attached to the frame and anchored to the ground.

Component missing

Double-check all packaging. If a component is confirmed missing, contact customer support with your order details and the specific part needed.
