Gas Cylinder Storage Calculator

What size gas cage do you need?

Please use this calculator to work out the most suitable cage you require.

Please note:

  • The smallest size cage is always suggested first
  • The first cage suggested is the most suitable and appropriate fit.

Example

If you have 2 Butane 4.5KG bottles, then the form will recommend every cage we offer. This is because 2 Butane bottles will fit in all cage types.

However, the first result being the GC05 is the most suitable and appropriate fit.

If you enter 5 bottles, GC05 will no longer be an option  as the maximum capacity for the GC05 of that bottle type is 4. The best fit for 5 Butane 4.5kg bottles will then be the GC15.

If no cage is displayed, then please get in touch. We are able to supply Bespoke Mesh cages to exact requirements.

This tool is for guidance purposes only. 

Please satisfy yourself that the cage is a suitable size for all the bottles, and that the amount of bottles you wish to store. Internal and External measurements are supplied below. All measurements are in mm.
