The economy shape allows us to use lighter tubing, but we still incorporate tubing that is dramatically heavier & stronger than others. Two people can set this up and tear it down in under an hour. With our system, the net has an economy shape just like the frame, so you get full use of extra width at the bottom. Some systems hang a square net directly down from the top of the frame, so the extra width at the bottom of the cage is unusable, and the cage still takes up valuable yard space. Compare tubing diameter. While others use 3/4" EMT conduit, a BCI economy cage uses 1-3/8" black powder coated tubing. If you decide to purchase your own tubing, it will likely be galvanized steel. Our net is heavier, and incorporates the highest UV inhibitors in the industry. Our welded steel fittings are more than twice as strong as typical 3/4" conduit fittings.

This package can also be purchased with out the kit, you can pick up your own tubing at the local building center. If you would like to buy your own poles, go to Lowe's, Home Depot, or similar building center. Find the fencing department. Ask for top-rail for chain link fencing, and confirm that the outside diameter is 1 3/8". The tubing should be galvanized, and will come in 10' or 11' lengths. Cut the reduced (swaged) end off to 9' 10-1/2".
