A safe, open-air space your dog can truly enjoy. Built from 32 mm galvanized steel and 3.0 mm coated wire mesh, this outdoor run is designed to keep active dogs secure while giving them freedom to move, rest, and watch the world go by. A reinforced steel gate, weatherproof roof, and close mesh spacing work together to prevent escapes.
Unlike standard enclosures that bend or rust over time, every component is treated to resist corrosion and wear. The 420D Oxford fabric roof offers shade and rain protection, while the flexible chain-link mesh absorbs impact without transferring stress to the frame.
Features:
-
Durable Frame – 32 mm steel tubing with 1 mm wall thickness, hot-dip galvanized for long-term rust protection.
-
Strong Mesh – 3.0 mm galvanized wire with 60×60 mm spacing prevents dogs from squeezing through while maintaining visibility.
-
Weather-Ready Roof – 420D Oxford fabric with UV inhibitors blocks sun, sheds rain, and resists fading.
-
Impact Absorption – Flexible mesh reduces injury risk if your dog jumps or runs against it.
- Guided DIY Assembly – Connect the steel tube frame using the supplied fittings, then unfold, tension and secure the chain-link mesh with metal ties. Two-person assembly is recommended.
NOTE*: For maximum security, before installation, fully unfold the mesh and lay it flat. Ensure it is straight and free of twists before securing it to the metal frame.

Cover Installation Tips:
- Ensure the top edge of the mesh is positioned slightly below the top frame. Avoid leaving sharp wire ends protruding upward where they may contact the roof cover.
- If any wire ends extend above the frame, use pliers to bend them downward before installing the cover.
- For additional protection, you may wrap any exposed wire ends with tape, rubber tubing, or other protective material to help prevent unnecessary wear to the cover over time.

The enclosure has a 196 × 196cm footprint, providing approximately 3.84m² of enclosed space, with a 230cm peak height. The right size depends on your dog’s breed, activity level and time spent inside.
Larger or highly active dogs may benefit from one of the longer Aegis models.
Yes. One grey 420D Oxford roof cover is included. Its waterproof coating and UV inhibitors help provide shade and protection from rain, while the open sides maintain airflow.
Yes. It is designed for DIY assembly, although two people are recommended, especially when tensioning and securing the chain-link mesh. Assembly time varies depending on the enclosure size and installation experience.
Before installation, fully unfold the mesh and lay it flat. Gently twist any uneven wire sections back into alignment, then pull the mesh tight and secure it evenly to the frame with the supplied metal ties. Properly preparing the mesh helps make installation smoother and creates a safer, more secure enclosure.
The reinforced gate uses separate top-and-bottom steel latches to help secure both ends of the closing edge. Check both latches and the mesh tension regularly, particularly if your dog is active or prone to pushing against enclosures.
