Large Aluminium Garden Hoop Size And Structure
The large hoop measures 1.55m wide by 0.8m high when erected and requires at least 2.4m wide netting or fleece. Each hoop includes strong clips to hold the cover securely in place.
The actual hoop height before installation is 0.92m, with 12cm designed to push into the soil for stability. When installed, the tunnel stands firm, offering consistent support for your chosen cover.
Aluminium Garden Hoop Kit Components
Each kit includes rust-resistant aluminium hoops, clips to secure the cover, and steel pegs to anchor the tunnel firmly into the ground. A cover of your choice is also included, giving flexibility for different gardening conditions. Every component is designed for quick assembly, providing a solid structure that maintains its shape season after season.
You can choose from a variety of cover materials depending on your gardening needs:
- Bird netting to keep out birds without blocking light
- Veggiemesh insect netting to deter aphids, carrot fly, and other insects
- Ultra-fine Veggiemesh for added protection against smaller pests
- Soft butterfly netting to stop cabbage whites and other flying pests
- 30g fleece to insulate against frost while allowing airflow
- Polythene covers for warming soil and creating a mini greenhouse effect
We recommend placing hoops approximately 1 metre apart for best results.
Should you need replacement or additional covers, be sure to use netting or fleece that is at least 2.4m wide. Add 1.7m to your tunnel length to ensure full coverage of both ends.
