Fruit cages description

Aluminium

Robust and durable, our premium aluminium walk-in cages require minimal maintenance and are very simple to erect – in fact, the only tools that you will require are a stepladder, a mallet, a screwdriver, and a pair of sharp scissors! A second pair of hands may also prove useful.

They are supplied with heavy duty 25mm OD aluminium uprights and top rails, 360mm deep galvanised steel ground sockets and mushroom cap jointing system, which makes them extremely easy to install - even on sloping or uneven ground. The 2m high cage includes a 1m wide door as standard, giving easy wheelbarrow access.

Extra doors can be ordered if required and the door position can be specified. Separate side and roof netting along with all necessary fixtures and fittings complete the package. The side net is a rigid black extruded 18mm square mesh which attaches neatly to the frame with releasable cable ties. Ground pegs secure the side net at ground level to give a smart and tidy finish.

For the top net we use strong black polythene knotted netting with a 20mm square mesh.

Steel

William James’ classic steel cages are strong, sturdy and very simple to put up - in fact, the only tools that you will require are a stepladder, a screwdriver and a pair of sharp scissors! A second pair of hands may also prove useful.

The tried and tested design provides a stable framework to protect your valuable plants. These cages are supplied with high quality 20mm OD steel uprights 2.36m high overall (2m above ground). They are spiked at the bottom to allow them to be easily pushed into the soil and the steel earth plates both aid this process and provide extra stability when the cage is in place. With top rails manufactured from the same high quality material, all the steelwork is powder coated green for an attractive, hard wearing finish. Our mushroom cap jointing system makes the cages extremely easy to install - even on sloping or uneven ground.

The 2m high cage includes a 1m wide door as standard, giving easy wheelbarrow access. Extra doors can also be ordered if required and the door position can be specified. Separate side and roof netting and all necessary fixtures and fittings complete the package.
