Complete Backyard Cricket Cage

Dimensions:
Length: 5m
Height: 3m
Width: 2.7m

Netting Specifications:
This cage is made of the same netting material as our standard cricket net panels, ensuring it is designed for permanent outdoor use, even for adults at a high level. The size has been reduced compared to the other cages, making it an ideal option for residential spaces where size may be limited.

Being open ended, it allows for full length run up of bowlers, similar to your traditional cricket-nets setup. All edges are professionally finished with 6mm overlock stitched rope, and tie ropes are conveniently positioned for tying onto your frame or wire supports. This particular cage offers high quality in a convenient backyard size.
The net is all 1-piece (you don't need to join all the panels together)

Key specifications:
• Made of Heavy Duty 2mm (36ply) High Density Polyethylene
• UV treated – Suitable for permanent outdoor use
• 44mm Square Mesh Size
• Overlocked and stitched 6mm rope borders on all edges
• Attachment ropes in corners
• Full length roof to keep the ball out of your neighbours backyard as much as possible

Support Posts Specifications:
This cage comes with 4 Support Posts with a choice between Turf Ground Spike, H-Shaped Base Stand or 4m Heavy Duty 80mm Net Support Post.

Turf Ground Spike: The posts are made from 32mm Steel Tube, finished in gloss black for a sleek finish. They come in 4 parts, and use a simple “Click-Lock” type of assembly.
They come with a Turf/Grass Spike at the base, making them suitable ONLY for installation on Grass/Turf areas. (If your grassed area is dry, making it hard… you may be required to prepare the turf prior to installation. The spikes are designed for insertion to medium to soft grass surfaces only, with excessive force being used to insert into hard surfaces potentially damaging the spikes.)

Base Stand: 3m high, 38mm Steel Tube, H-Shaped, finished in gloss black for a sleek finish. The post comes with included heavy duty H-Shaped base stand and a simple 4-piece “Click-Lock” type of assembly. 

Both posts are finished at the top with a plastic cap, and have a Support-Wire eyelet included.

The support wires are stainless steel, and are coated in nylon to make them soft to the touch. There are two wires for each post, and they simply attach to the eyelet at the top of each post using the included 316 Grade Stainless Steel Carabiner.

The support wires are then taken down to the surrounding grassed area to ensure the post stability. We include 1 Peg per wire, and they are a VERY HEAVY duty peg designed to hold their position over a long period of time.

4m Heavy Duty 80mm Net Support Post: 1 Heavy Support Post: Steel Post, finished in black for a sleek finish. These posts are a Heavy Duty option for suspending sports (and other) netting products. A 1 piece heavy duty steel product, they are designed to be concreted into the ground as part of a permanent setup.

Transporting 4m Heavy Duty Steel posts around the country at economical pricing is no easy exercise. Please note that although care is taken in packaging, in rare circumstances posts may require minor touch-ups with black paint upon arrival. All posts are individually wrapped in Bubble Wrap and a thick Poly Bag.
