Crackpots Rural
Kit Form Netted Orchard Structure
Do you want a kit form orchard structure to keep the birds out for your vineyard, orchard, or garden? But don’t want to pay for installation? Why not build it yourself and save on labor costs? Our EZBuild Structure might be the solution you need.
Building it is easier than you think. We offer three standard-sized netted orchard structure kits. Each kit includes everything you need to build a professional orchard structure. It will protect your crops from birds and last for many years.
Simply source the poles and assemble the structure. We’ll provide all the components, plans, and instructions. There’s even a video to guide you, helping you confidently build your own anti-bird netting structure.
EZBUILD Orchard Structure Kits
First we’ll help you plan your DIY anti-bird structure. Then Crackpots will supply you with everything you need to build it. Bird netting joined and ready to hang, all the hardware and cabling. Plus we’ll supply you with layout diagrams and detailed instructions.
Remember you’ll need to supply your own poles. We recommend using 100mm diameter CCA pine poles, about 4.5m in length. These can usually be sourced from your local rural supply stores.
Our kits are available in three standard sizes – small, medium & large.
If you need a different size to our EZBuild kits we can help. The kits have been designed around the most common sizes we supply. For most people they will do the job perfectly. But if you need a particular size, just call us and we can prepare a custom quote for you.
Small – Kit Form Orchard Structure
Measuring 22m long by 12m wide, and 3.5m high. This structure will protect two – three rows of trees. It does depend on the tree size and how much space you leave between each row. Here’s two possibilities:
Small – Kit Form Orchard Structure
In the second tree layout for the small structure we’ve assumed a smaller variety of trees, and closer planting. Reducing the gap between the trees to 1.5m allows for an additional 7 trees.
Medium EZBuild. Kit
Measuring 30m long by 18m wide, and 3.5m high. This structure will protect three rows of trees, or up to 18 trees 3m in diameter easily. This will give spacing between the trees of 1.7m – 2.25m. This should be adequate for mowing and moving small machinery between the trees. Medium Kits require 12 poles to build.
Large Sized orchard Structure
Measuring 40m long by 22m wide, and 3.5m high. This structure will protect four rows of trees easily, with space for mowing and moving small machinery between the trees. To build a Large EZBuild Structure you’ll need to source 15 poles.

Testimonial
“We've had quite a bit of interest in (our new structure) down here, especially when I had 40 people here last week from local garden club! I was very proud to put your name forward and how helpful you had been. I actually contacted 3 local businesses to do it. They insisted they were keen to do the job but never got back to me even after several phone calls which is why we decided we could do it. I cooked a lot of food. We had a lot of fun AND HARD WORK but we still have our friends so it’s now a talking point. Thanks again for all your support.”
