Socketed Pro Golf Cage, Net & Mat | 42mm Steel 3m × 3m × 3m
Winter-proof — built to stay outside all year ▼ details
Hot-dip galvanised steel frame — zinc-coated so it doesn't rust: the same protection used on farm gates and street railings. Rain, frost and snow don't touch it.
UV-stabilised knotless netting — weatherproof twine that keeps its strength through sun, rain and frost, season after season.
Storm-sensible — in a named storm, unclip the netting in about ten minutes; the planted frame stays put.
Maintained forever — 2-year warranty, and every component (nets, bars, joints) is available as a UK spare.
Leave it up through winter — that's what it's built for.

Product Overview
The permanent golf practice bay: a professional 3m × 3m × 3m socketed golf cage in heavy-duty 42mm galvanised steel, with uprights that concrete into ground sockets for a rock-solid fixed installation — add a tour-density hitting mat and base to complete the setup.
The Socketed Pro golf cage and net takes our heavy-duty 42mm steel cage and fixes it in place for good: each upright slots into a ground socket concreted into the ground, so the frame stands up to wind and daily use with no pegs or guy ropes. The weatherproof knotless green net safely stops full-speed drives, making this the right choice for golf clubs, driving ranges, schools and gardens where the cage will live in one spot permanently. Add a hitting mat and base to complete the practice station, or take the cage and net on their own.
Choose your setup:
- Cage Only — socketed 42mm galvanised steel golf cage with weatherproof knotless green net, 3m × 3m × 3m (10ft × 10ft × 10ft), available as a single bay or 2-bay
- With hitting mat — add the FORZA Driving Range Mat, FORB Teaching Mat or Ultra Tee Turf Mat (all 5ft × 5ft), with an optional Standard or Pro Jigsaw rubber base
This socketed golf cage suits full driver, iron and wedge practice, and is the pick for permanent installs — commercial ranges, golf clubs and serious garden practice spaces. It also doubles as an enclosure for a golf simulator setup with a launch monitor.
- Heavy-duty 42mm galvanised steel tube — weatherproof and rust-resistant for year-round outdoor use
- Ground-socket installation: uprights concrete into ground sockets for a permanent fixed cage
- Weatherproof knotless green net safely contains full-speed shots
- Single bay measures 3m × 3m × 3m (10ft × 10ft × 10ft); 2-bay option doubles the hitting stations
- Mat options: FORZA Driving Range, FORB Teaching or Ultra Tee Turf mat, with Standard or Pro Jigsaw rubber base
Planning where your cage will go? Read our guide: How to Build a Base for a Garden Golf Cage — grass, platform or sub-base. It covers starting on grass with U-pegs, the exact sub-base build we recommend (with real costs), anchoring on every surface, and finishing around the base with bark or artificial turf.

Assembling Your Golf Cage
Two people, everyday tools, plus a permanent concrete install — spanner, Allen key, ratchet with sockets, rubber mallet and a stepladder for the roof netting.
- The 4 ground sockets (included) are concreted into the ground first, one per upright — let the concrete set before the build.
- The frame assembles with grub-screw corner joints, then the uprights slot straight into the sockets — no pegs, no guy ropes, and the cage lifts back out if it ever needs to move.
- The red tab on the netting marks the front, so it can't go on backwards. Fit the top corners first, then the sides.
