Small Kitchen Garden Fruit Cages
Perfect if you don’t have a huge amount of outdoor space but still want to cultivate a small number of fruit bushes or vines, or indeed just one to start out with. A lot of people don’t want to big investment of a large fruit tree cage, especially if they’re not entirely sure their green fingers are going to be that successful. So one of these smaller products could make a lot more sense for beginners. Here are two products available with our Agriframes promotional codes that could help develop your kitchen garden on a smaller scale:
Domed Roof Fruit Cage - £39
- Protects individual bushes and plants
- Made from galvanised steel
- Comes with UV knitted netting that keeps out birds and small animals
- Self-assembly
- 10 year guarantee
- 1m width x 1.6 m height
As you can see, the size is the main draw here. If you want a small fruit cage, then this is going to fit the bill perfectly. All their black polymer-coated and galvanised garden structures come with a 10 year guarantee, even this entry level fruit cage. Obviously the Domed Roof Fruit Cage isn’t going to be suitable if you have more than one or two plants that needs protecting (unless of course you’re planning on ordering more than one). And the type of netting provided may not be suitable for protection against insects. However, as a starter purchase, you can’t really go wrong.
Long Domed Fruit Cage - £66
- Protects a row of bushes and plants
- Made from galvanised steel
- Comes with UV knitted netting that keeps out birds and small animals
- Self-assembly
- 10 year guarantee
- 1m width x 1.6m height x 3.1m length
This is essentially a longer version of the above, ideal if you need a small structure that will offer protection to a row of fruit bushes or vines. The Long Domed Fruit Cage has similar pros and cons to the smaller item, but another point worth mentioning is that this offers better value for money if you have two or more fruit bushes that need covering.
Walk In Fruit Cages
This is probably what most people think of when they think of large fruit cages – something the size of a greenhouse. Yes, this is a much bigger investment so therefore a much more serious purchase. Which makes ordering one, something that takes a bit more consideration. As they are a specialist supplier, our Agriframes discount vouchers also have a wide selection of larger garden cages to choose from, so we’ve focused on a couple that may suit different types of customer:
Starter Fruit Cage - £228
- Galvanised steel tubing
- Top quality netting
- Comes complete with all required fixtures
- Self-assembly
- 10 year guarantee
- 5m width x 2m height x 2.5m depth
This Starter Fruit Cage for those who want a more serious amount of fruit crops and it is also covered by their 10 year structural guarantee. Their aim here was to create something on the scale of a larger fruit or vegetable cage that is still affordable. It may not be the product for you if you’re after something more aesthetically pleasing for your garden, but all your practical fruit cage needs will certainly be met.
Long Narrow Fruit Cage with Zip Net - £659
- Designed to be installed directly onto your border or lawn with no need for concrete footings
- Feet provided if you are fixing it to a solid patio surface
- Galvanised throughout
- Self-assembly
- 10 year structural guarantee
- Zipped door included along with all netting and fixtures
- Featured at RHS Royal Hampton Court Flower Show
- 1.83m width x 2.44m height x 7.32m length
This combines quality and looks whilst being one of the most practical fruit cages on their site. The slimmer dimensions of the Long Narrow Fruit Cage with Zip Net makes it a great fit for borders and slightly smaller spaces, and it would look beautiful in both a modern garden or one with traditional features. As you can see, this is quite a leap up in price, but when you place an order using one of our Agriframes promotional codes then there’s a good chance you could save quite a lot of money on their more expensive items.
DIY Fruit Cages
If you’ve had a good look at their site already, but don’t think any of their cages or structures would suit your garden needs, there is another option. Putting together your own DIY fruit cage by buying all the components separately doesn’t have to be as complicated as it sounds. And our Agriframes discount vouchers can get you everything you need to do just this. We’ve listed just a few of the DIY fruit cage products available on their site to help you on your way:
DIY Crop Cage – Parts from £3
If you’re a bit confused by the prospect of building your own home made fruit cage but still want something that fits your patch perfectly, then this is a great option. All the parts are there in one DIY Crop Cage pack, and all you have to do is select how many tubes you need and their lengths, and then how many connectors you require for your fruit netting frame (available as 3, 4 and 5-way connectors). You can choose all these specifications all on one page. The netting isn’t available as part of the pack, but we’ve gone into more detail below about the different types available that you can order on another one of their pages.
Strawberry and Vegetable Cage – From £95
Rather than selecting all the parts separately, this is a specific type of fruit cage that can be easily lifted and transported to cover different bits of your fruit and vegetable patch. The DIY element is that you select the size of base and then have the option of purchasing an extension, so it covers a larger area. The Strawberry and Vegetable Cage does come as a higher price, but you are paying more for the convenience – there is less assembly required and the frame is easy to move when needed.
Fruit Cage Door – From £59
This is an item for those who already have a walk in fruit cage, but either a replacement door is required or you’d like to put in an extra door for easier access. Agriframes highlight that your walk in fruit cage door is the part most likely to suffer from wear and tear and so may need replacing before the rest of the cage does. The inclusion of a separate Fruit Cage Door on their site can save you money in the long run, avoiding the extra expense of whole new fruit cage when you can just upgrade your door at a fraction of the price.
Insect Netting – From £9
We mentioned above that you can purchase netting on their site for your DIY fruit cage frame, poles and connectors, so we’ve highlighted just a couple of types of netting they have available (you can find more on their site). They are priced by length and you pay per metre.
Their specialist Insect Netting is pretty self-explanatory and will protect your fruit and vegetables from even the tiniest of insect pests. It’s worth noting that many of their fruit cages come with netting that keeps out only birds and small animals. So if you have an insect problem, then it may be worth considering constructing your own fruit and vegetable frame using this type of netting instead.
Jute Netting – From £2.50
We’ve featured this particular type of Jute Netting because it offers an alternative for your beans and peas thanks to its hard-wearing and durable material. It is designed to keep out butterflies and jute can be considered a more sustainable fibre than other netting materials.
Uprights and Crosspoles – From £14
Another set of items available with our Agriframes discount codes that are compatible with existing fruit cages you have purchased from their site. The Uprights and Crosspoles are made from galvanised steel and can be used to join their poles together.
Reusuable Net Ties – From £5.50
And last but not least, any new or regular customers are going to find an ongoing supply of Reusable Net Ties incredibly useful indeed. Not only can you use them to fasten your netting, but they can also be used in so many other ways around the garden, such as securing plants to beanpoles. So even if your main purchase from their site is going to be a flash new walk in fruit cage, consider adding a pack of their Reuseable Net ties to your order too as you never know when they are going to come in handy.
Which Fruit Cage is Best For Me?
As you can see, there is a HUGE difference in price and size between the various products and options available on their site. But in broad terms, your choice is going to come down to not only price but also space, how experienced a gardener you are and how much time you have on your hands. If you are very new to gardening, then we suggest you start small. The Domed Roof Fruit Cage is easy to assemble, doesn’t take up much room and certainly won’t break the bank.
If you’re already into your gardening and want to move onto bigger projects, then it makes sense to begin with the Starter Fruit Cage. Ok, it’s not as pretty as some of their other large fruit cages, but it is significantly cheaper and more than does the job. But if you do have the time to build your own vegetable cage, then why not take some measurements and work out a few possible cost scenarios on their site?
