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 labour costs? Our EZBuild Structure might be the solution you need.
Constructing it is simpler than you might realise. We provide three standard-sized netted orchard structure kits. Each kit contains everything necessary to create a professional orchard structure. It will shield your crops from birds and endure for many years.
Simply obtain 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 construct your own anti-bird netting structure.
EZBUILD Orchard Structure Kits
First, we’ll assist you in planning your DIY anti-bird structure. Then, Crackpots will supply you with everything you need to build it, including bird netting that’s all joined and ready to hang, along with the necessary hardware and cabling. Plus, we’ll provide you with layout diagrams and detailed instructions.
Remember that you’ll need to provide your own poles. We recommend 100mm diameter CCA pine poles, approximately 4.5m in length. These can typically 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 for our EZBuild kits, we can help. The kits are designed around the most common sizes we supply. For most people, they will do the job perfectly. However, if you require a specific size, just give us a call 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.”
