Product ID: FC0016
Our 5 Bay x 4 Bay Fruit Cage measures 9.78m wide x 7.82m long x 2.14m high (32ft x 25ft 7in x 7ft) and is manufactured from 25.4mm Z35 galvanised high tensile steel. Supplied with seven end stabiliser bars which are fitted to each corner and one door making our Fruit Cages exceptionally strong structures. Check you are getting end stabiliser bars with competitor designs – these are key to structural integrity!
Each module measures 195.5cm x 195.5cm - ensuring maximum strength. Beware of others offering modules up to 250cm x 250cm; less steel = less strength!
Our joining fixtures are manufactured from galvanised cast iron - no plastic or welded steel fixings, ensuring a long life with a high corrosion resistance.
The supplied extruded high strength (17mm x 17mm) polypropylene side mesh and the super light double knitted roof mesh (18mm x 18mm) are great for protection from flocks of smaller birds, the unwanted attention of pigeons, or even the pest threat of butterflies.
Our Fruit Cage design is supplied with ground staples to position the net into the ground.
Should your required size not be listed, or you require additional doors, greater/reduced heights, etc, please contact us for a bespoke quote. Tubes can be cut down to fit your exact growing area if required.

This is a very well made product that will last for a long time. The frame is very sturdy and relatively easy to put together but allow 2 days especially if you dont have totally level ground like me. Although a few parts were initially missing, First Tunnels sent them the next day so excellent service with no quibbles |

Easy to erect, apart from our site not being at all "optimal". We were able to modify the design to fit in with our constricted space. It does appear to keep all the birds, squirrels and neighbouring cats out. The cage was slightly larger than advertised, so we had to modify construction a little. Part of the frame is outside our fence (but still on our property). One side is against a wall, and we didn't realise the concrete foundation would not allow us to insert the supports along part of the wall. However, again, we were able to employ some "ingenuity" and managed to get a good result. So far, I am happy with the cage - just waiting to see now how things grow! |

The product is generally very good. The only problem is with screwing into the poles. You can’t easily drill the screws into the poles because the screws don’t drill into the metal easily and they slip off the tubular metal. The solution is to drill pilot holes with a small drill bit. If the product was supplied with small pilot holes in the outer tubes that would make the construction much easier. |

So long as you read the instructions, and measure between the post feet, everything goes as per the instructions. Drilling pilot hole for the self tapping screws to start them off helps, but still excellent product. |

Apart from a couple of minor niggles over surplus materials, the assembly of this went swimmingly and the cage is now serving excellently - as a protected chicken run. Provided our own timber rails for securing mesh, two sets to attach wire mesh as well as the mesh supplied, and this gives a very rigid structure. Would recommend without reservation. |

Very heavy duty Fruit Cage, the joints are very robust and the framework is steel, I repeat steel, not like aluminium that many cages are made from. The instruction guide is pretty good. Think I'll add another door, only comes with one, the design makes this process easy though, even after construction completed. |
