Frequently Asked Questions About Security Cages for HVAC Units
- 1. Are the cages accessible for maintenance?
- Yes. All of our cages are designed for full service accessibility, both replacing parts and the entire A/C units.
- 2. How does the protective cage work?
- Our A/C protection cages are designed on a pivot system. Therefore, the base of the cage is stationary and one person is able lift the cage over the A/C unit.
- 3. What is the price of the cage?
- The price varies by dimensions of the A/C unit and the pad the unit is sitting on. Get your FREE estimate by submitting our online estimate request form.
- 4. Do you also install your cages?
- Yes. We have our own installation crew available for your convenience. We will install cages outside of our local area. With an order of 150 cages or more, we will install the cages in the following states: Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Florida, North Carolina and South Carolina. Installation prices vary and are not included in the A/C cage pricing.
- 5. How long does it take to recieve the cage once the order is placed?
- Single A/C protection cages are completed in 3-5 business days. For orders of 200 cages or more, please allow
3 - 6 weeks for fabrication and delivery.
- 6. Why has copper theft become a problem recently?
- Copper is the most commonly used product in electronic construction. Rising copper prices have recently raised the incentive for thieves to steal easily accessible copper.
- 7. How much is the cost for shipping?
- Shipping charges will vary on the size, weight and number of cages shipped. We use R & L Carriers for shipping. Visit R & L Carriers' site to get an estimate on the cost of shipping.
