This Additional Aluminium Fruit Cage Door Kit is made from the same 'strongest in class' 25mm diameter tubular aluminium and is designed to fit our popular walk-in Aluminium Fruit Cages.
The door kit frame measures 970mm in width and is supplied complete with locking hinges, clip-on door catches and a separate door catch upright for complete fruit cage security. Although our Aluminium Fruit Cages are all supplied with a door kit as standard, we decided to make these extra doors available to create further access points - particularly useful in large cages or when fruit and vegetable planting dictates.
- Additional Aluminium Fruit Cage Door Kit is exactly the same as that provided as standard with our Aluminium Fruit Cage
- Valuable addition if you decide to purchase a large fruit cage and require more than one entry point
- Ideal for creating extra access when planting and maintenance dictates
- Measures 970mm wide
- Manufactured from top quality 25mm diameter tubular aluminium
- Supplied with locking hinges, clip-on door catches and support upright
- Position next to any existing upright
- Supplied as a kit for self assembly
Our Aluminium Fruit Cage Door Kits are designed to be positioned against a corner upright for stability. If you wish to position the door along a side of the cage between two external uprights then you will need the Additional Aluminium Door Parts for Fruit Cage which contains all you need to re-position your fruit cage door.
Product Reviews
The door would benefit from having 3d assembly instructions Would be good to have a diagonal to upright connection to brace for stability instead of using the two way connector and tie wraps

I have just completed the erection of my aluminium cage, which was fine, easy and uncomplicated. However, when it came to fitting the doors it was a different story. The doors need redesigning, and particularly need a cross brace of some sort to keep them rigid. One of the conectors broke while being hammered in but, fortunately I managed to ram it further in leaving an inch or so of remaining connector to screw down. The connectors were too large and needed a lot of hammering to fit. The loop to secure the additional pole is a disaster as it is not the right shape and is very hard to fit. The hinges are difficult to secure and do not hold the door straight. There is nothing in the instuctions to advise that the roof pole braces interfere with the door frame and therefore have to be removed from the upright against which the door is fixed. It is a fine and practical looking cage, but something really needs to be done about the doors.

ALUMINIUM FRUIT CAGE DOOR UNIT FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Where do I position my door unit?
We recommend that you position your door unit against a corner upright, purely for stability. However, you may position it against any of the external uprights of your cage. Should you wish to position it in-between two external uprights, you will need to purchase the Additional Aluminium Fruit Cage Door Parts Kit.
2. Can I add another door kit to my already erected fruit cage?
Yes you can add extra doors to a cage that has already been erected. However, you will need to lift the nearest upright from the ground a little, and remove some horizontals and connectors, in order to slide your additional door kit into place.
3. Is it possible to have a double door?
Yes, this is something we can provide, please contact our Customer Services Department or telephone us on 0333 400 6400 and let us know your requirements.
