    Cross Joints and General Comments.

    Primarily, to save initial cost (absolutely no reflection on other parts sold by this company, I simply had to economise), I used 3 X 2" wooden base rails (2.5m) and drilled through each rail at five opposing points with 25mm wood bit.... Secured mitred corners together with both large angle brackets and flat "L" brackets under each base corner..... Wooden cross brace rail screwed half way along each frame base.... 25mm blue pipe cut to 42" for each side of each hoop (our own personal choice of length), both lengths of blue pipe joined using the excellent cross joint connectors (as supplied by this company). These connectors, which have been outlined in previous reviews on this site as being too large to fit 25mm blue pipe, they were tight certainly but once inserted with the help of a little silicon spray and strong hand pressure (I did revert to slights taps with a rubber mallet twice!) they were pressed home and display a very firm hold (impressed!) Once connected, the ends of both pipes were inserted into the previously mentioned, opposing 25mm, rail holes. Each pipe joint can be further strengthened by fixing a small screw through the pipe into the connector, likewise at the wooden base, a screw through both the rail and pipe at each point.... Hoops further joined/jointed together at the apex/crown of each arch with shorter lengths of pipe to complete a firm structure..... Netting stretched under slight tension and held with screwed in full length wooden battens along each upper edge of the rail and base ends. Wood treated after drilling holes.... Each section will be overwintered each year, under cover in a dry shed. K.J.C. Scotland

    Very happy with this.

    I'm very pleased with this system. I would suggest though that for anything bigger than 6'x3' that angle brackets should also be used as a 6'x4' or bigger frame will put a lot of strain on the plastic corner pieces. Alternatively you could screw the timber together. If the frame is hinged to a bed you will snap the corner pieces when you open the frame if those hinges seize up or become bound.

    Good Customer Service

    Delighted with my purchase, the speed of delivery and most of all the after-sales service. The Quickcrop staff could not have been more helpful or professional in resolving a small issue I encountered. It’s great to know that any problems that may arise will be sorted without any drama.

    bought to fit, worked well enough

    I bought separate components for a 4'x4'. They are relatively easy to fit, but beware they are plastic. When I was fitting some tubing into a centre tube support I noticed a slight crack appear in the support bracket. Similarly one or two of the net fasteners cracked when using and electric screwdriver- so watch the torque. End result looks ok and should serve its purpose of keeping birds out of the seedlings.
