Made by us in the UK
The Harrod Slot & Lock® Black Coated Aluminium Vegetable Cage (1.5m H) with butterfly netting is designed to the same exacting standards as the 1.2m version but provides a further 30cm of growing space making it ideal as a brassica cage.
Fruit bushes will also feel at home inside the matt black powder coated aluminium framework (unobtrusive in colour - in fact it’s practically invisible!) which is simple and very quick to assemble, can be taken down in the blink of an eye and takes up little room when storing - and being aluminium, the tubing will not rust. The durable and reusable black nylon Harrod Slot & Lock® connectors simply push onto the 1.2mm gauge aluminium tubing framework and are securely held in place by tightening the stainless steel screws, allowing the cage configuration to be easily changed - and with butterfly-busting 7mm square mesh butterfly netting, designed specifically to keep your cabbages caterpillar-free, as the first line of defence, your vegetables will never have had it so good!
The framework itself comprises strong and corrosion resistant 16mm aluminium tubing, powder coated black, which is secured using our Award Winning Harrod Slot & Lock® Connectors. The cages have also been updated to include the Harrod Net Claw Pegs - an innovative peg which is inserted into the ground once and use the tension of the netting to hook and unhook the netting from the claw teeth, saves unpegging and any potential net damage.
All cages up to 3m x 3m are supplied with a fitted net, larger cages are supplied with a netting pack that may be larger than required, but can be trimmed if there is too much excess netting.
Extending your black coated aluminium vegetable cage is simple as well as all the aluminium tubing components, netting, pegs and Slot & Lock connectors are available separately – we’ve even got Slot & Lock brace kits to give your vegetable cage extra rigidity in windy and exposed locations and in light soil.
Please Note:- The Slot & Lock Cages can be modified by cutting the aluminium tubing - if you can't see the perfect size then buy a size larger and cut the tubing to fit. We are unable to offer a bespoke design service for our Slot & Lock Cages.
