Knowle Nets

Protecting a harvest involves choosing more than a net. Knowle Nets works with the relationship between crops, structures, and mesh size: it makes fruit and vegetable cages, cuts netting and tubing to size, and supplies materials for different garden needs. Its history began in 1965 at Knowle Farm in Bridport, Dorset, while its current operations are based in Bristol workshops. That connection between manufacturing and retail defines a business where the dimensions of the garden are part of the order.

Fruit cages are organized by height and format. There are walk-in structures, low models, and strawberry cages, with aluminum or steel options. Vegetable versions have their own tubing, connectors, and netting. Kits bring together the structure, netting, and fixings, with doors in models that include them. Parts are also sold for building or adapting an installation. Custom manufacturing allows a project to be specified with exact dimensions and accompanied by garden photographs or sketches rather than being limited to a standard size.

The netting range includes more than fifty types, distinguishing woven, knotted, and extruded materials. Mesh opening is a central consideration: fine insect netting does not serve the same purpose as bird netting, and rigid plastic mesh is different from wire fencing. The catalog separates protection against butterflies, birds, and other animals, pond netting, poultry and aviary netting, and deer fencing. The company provides netting samples so customers can assess the material before ordering.

Weather protection adds shade fabrics, rigid or woven windbreaks, and frost-protection materials. Greenhouse and growing products include bubble wrap, polyethylene sheeting, capillary matting, and ground coverings for weed control. The range extends to tunnels, cloches, planters, propagation, and plant supports. Bamboo canes, support netting, and joining systems address another garden task: guiding climbing plants and supporting crops, a different function from keeping animals out.

Knowle Nets also supplies materials beyond the home garden. Construction categories include debris netting, scaffold sheeting, and barrier fencing. Sports offerings include cricket practice nets and cages, pitch covers, golf nets, and tennis-court equipment. The categories distinguish the activity and the material’s function. Pruning, digging, and lawn-care tools, garden waste bags, arches, obelisks, and hanging baskets complete the growing and maintenance catalog.

Customer support covers order guidance, cage assembly instructions, and custom orders. Its contact address is at Journal House, Hartcliffe Way, Bristol. Knowle Nets brings together parts, materials, and manufacturing: customers covering a plot, replacing a structure’s netting, or creating an enclosure find options organized by use. The catalog’s breadth rests on a specific craft, cutting and preparing nets and tubes, which allows a purchase to be fitted to the project.
