Construction & Materials

Our panels are built for durability, strength, and animal safety.

Welded Mesh
Made from 19-gauge ½ inch x ½ inch Italian galvanised steel welded mesh. Also available in ¾ inch x ¾ inch 16-gauge.
We never use chicken wire – foxes can chew through it. This tighter, stronger mesh keeps predators out and prevents small birds from entering.

Sturdy Timber Frame
Our frames are built from 58mm x 38mm pressure-treated timber (milled size approx. 44mm x 34mm) for excellent weather resistance and long-lasting structural integrity.
