Lucky Dog Adjustable 10 by 5 by 6 Feet Heavy Duty Outdoor Galvanized Steel Chain Link Dog Kennel Enclosure with Latching Door for Dogs up to 125lbs

Surprisingly clear instructions make assembly pretty clear, if not easy. PROS: Very detailed and well written instructions for a foreign manufactured product. This can be assembled to form a 5x15 or a 10x10 enclosure, and they're rather well delineated in the instructions. All the tubing is labeled with small stickers to show what goes where, making assembly a lot easier than I feared it would be. No parts were missing. The tubing diameter is smaller than what is generally used in a free standing chain link fence but seems appropriate for this task. All tubes are powder coated. CONS: The box is damn heavy. This would be easier with two people, but I managed. Make no mistake, this will take a while to completely assemble, mostly all the twisting the steel wires ties to hold the fencing to the framework. SUGGESTIONS: Follow the directions and be sure to roll out the chain link on a flat surface as they suggest. In shipping various bits of the fencing turn, come unhooked, etc. Much easier to do this when the fencing is rolled out, then moved into place. This will take one person several hours to complete, but I wasn't frustrated with missing parts or indecipherable instructions! Tools: Wheelbarrow: great for lugging the box, and also for moving the roll up fencing when prepping it for installation. Vise-Grips and Channellocks: I used several different types of pliers to work with the chain link. These two were most helpful. Phillips screwdriver: Need a hefty one to cinch down the various screws Socket wrench: Believe I used a 7/16th socket to mount the gate latch. Only two nuts in this entire kit. Zip ties: These were very helpful to temporarily hold the chain link in place. Use some!

The good: 1) (Missing parts) The seller seems to be upfront getting the parts promptly that I need to finish this kennel. 2) The price is fair but I would of spent a few bucks more for better chain link which I'll probably end up buying a heavier gauge chain link. 3) I've ordered the roof which seemed reasonable in price and hopefully it will arrive all intact.. Cons: 1) My Siberian Husky has already bent and destroyed the CHEAP CHAIN LINK USED IN THIS IMPORTED KENNEL KIT! 2) A few parts were missing but the seller assures me the will promptly send the parts, latch, tie wires and plastic caps for the pipe ends. 3) instruction assembly manual, all parts that are marked E are actually G parts! 4) The chain link gauge is the thinnest I'd ever seen and several of the links were not connected and I had to remove 5 links to accomplish a tight fit once I was finally able to unravel the rats nest because of its terrible quality of the links not being crimped correctly and snagging which was a real bitch! ( it took me only 1 hour to assemble the frame and over 3 hours to attach the cheap quality chain link) I used bailing wire until I receive the proper wire ties. The good: 1) The seller seems to be upfront getting the parts promptly that I need to finish this kennel. 2) The price is fair but I would of spent a few bucks more for better chain link which I'll probably end up buying a heavier gauge chain link. 3) I've ordered the roof which seemed reasonable in price and hopefully it will arrive all intact.....

Buy the sturdier kennels at your home store, but for what this is, This was easier to put together than I thought. It is not a 30 minute project, it took me awhile and it takes 2 people . This is not the tough strong galvanized kind. I gave 4 stars because it was missing parts, but the company did replace the parts within 2 weeks. We use a chain with clamps to hold the door closed as the dogs learned how to open the latch. It definitely needs the chain link to hold it together, and I bought some wire at the local home store to wrap the top of the chain link to the top posts. Seems to be holding up to the big dogs pushing against it and bouncing into it as they play rough at times. I do have this connected to the sturdier kennel purchased at the local home store, making an L-shape wrapped around the house. I used the 2x2 kennel clamps to connect them together.

My husband just got this product up yesterday and so far, so good. We got 2 new puppies for Christmas (SURPRISE) and needed a better, fence-in-the-front-door type set up to aid in the potty training of our puppies. We've set this up in a 15x15 V configuration that adjoins to the house (screwed into the brick) making a perfect square. The fencing looks so tight and professional, it looks how I would expect it to look if I paid a professional to do it. I'm certainly impressed with the outcome. --- I almost didn't buy this because of other reviews about how the fencing wasn't perfectly woven; this was true, but wrapping the pieces back together was no big deal and now it looks flawless. Another thing people talked about was how it's easier to use zip ties; that may also be true, but if you want the fence to be really tight and sturdy, get out your pliers, take a few extra minutes and use the metal pieces that came with it. One thing I would say is it does take some work and muscle (especially for 1 person) and a couple hours to get it set up, but totally worth it. --- I'll follow up soon with photos.

I bought an open box version of this to save a few dollars. It turned out that two of the tension rods were irreparably bent so I had to go to Home Depot and buy new ones for $22. That made the open box version not worth it. I also had to troubleshoot the chain-link to make it even and a couple of the screws did not screw in quite right. I will say the frame is strong.

I'm a 50 year old woman and I assembled this by myself IN my house in sections then took it outside and slapped it together I'd say it took about 2 1/2 hours. I did not have any difficulty putting this together nor following the instructions. I did take the advice of other reviewers and use cable ties instead of the enclosed wires to tie the fencing to the poles. I felt that it would be a safer option for my small dogs then a wire poking them by accident. I also put a 5 x 10 cover on it the next day and it fit perfect. As far as escaping...hmm well they haven't got out once but not for the lack of trying. I ended up removing about 5 links at the end to make it a real tight fit there is no gaps or lose fencing. If you just put the fence on as is it will be too lose and they will be able to push through it along the edges. I was happy with the quality for the price I paid.

We used this fence for a chicken pen. Although we made it work we found issues with the quality of the Product. When assembled it was not perfectly square. I believe the wrong gate was sent making the dimensions 6 inches different from one corner to the other. The fence came in a roll and had to be unrolled and attached to the metal posts. I do not believe this is sturdy enough to make a quality dog cage but is adequate for a chicken run. The fencing was flimsy and the wiring moved making adjustment necessary. The best way to describe it is if the fence was not handled with extreme care the actual wires making up the fence would move making the fence itself uneven. Making its assembly difficult. The project is workable but requires greater skill.

When we first saw unboxed, looked a little intimidating, Of you follow the directions it’s a breeze and so sturdy and well made!! Would recommend this to anyone! And the pups love it! 💗🤗🤗
