Pond Protection Cage & Netting – Heron & Bird Protection

Keep your pond and fish protected with our lightweight pond protection cages. Designed to create a secure framework over your pond, these cages come covered in our strong pond netting to help prevent herons and other birds from reaching your fish.

The strong yet lightweight aluminium frame is easy to assemble and can be positioned over garden ponds without the need for specialist tools. 

Pond Cages Available in Multiple Lengths

All pond cages measure 680mm (2' 2") high by 1.2m (4') wide, giving plenty of clearance above the pond.

Choose from six lengths:

• 1.2m
• 2.4m
• 3m
• 3.6m
• 4.5m
• 6m

The different sizes make it easy to find a cage to suit smaller garden ponds as well as longer rectangular ponds and water features.

Pond Cage Frame and Fixings Included

Each pond cage frame includes top support bars, base rails, U pins and clips and netting.

The base rails help create a stable structure around the pond, while the support bars strengthen the cage and help keep your  netting raised above the water.

Simply position the cage over your pond and secure the netting to create a protective barrier around your fish.

Protect Pond Fish From Herons and Birds

A pond cage provides a physical barrier between your pond and visiting birds, making it particularly useful for ponds containing koi, goldfish and other ornamental fish.

Unlike netting placed directly across the surface of the pond, the raised cage framework keeps the covering above the water and creates additional space between the net and your fish.

Lightweight Aluminium Pond Cage

The aluminium construction makes the cage strong while remaining lightweight enough to move when required.

This is particularly useful when you need access to your pond for feeding fish, cleaning, maintaining pumps and filters, removing leaves or carrying out general pond maintenance.

Create a Custom Pond Protection Cage

If one of our standard pond cage sizes isn't suitable for your pond, you can create your own configuration using our range of aluminium hoops and cage accessories.

This gives you greater flexibility when covering ponds with unusual dimensions or where a standard cage isn't quite the right fit.
