Optional Anti Dig Mesh Skirt – 16 Gauge, 1" x 1" Mesh

Protect your enclosure from digging predators with our heavy-duty anti-fox grass skirt. Manufactured from durable 16-gauge welded mesh with a 1" x 1" mesh aperture, it is designed to create an effective barrier to help prevent foxes and other animals from digging beneath your enclosure

The grass skirt is supplied with galvanised ground pegs, making it quick and easy to secure firmly to the ground for a neat and reliable installation.

Features:

Heavy-duty 16-gauge welded mesh

1" x 1" mesh aperture

Helps deter foxes and other digging predators

Ideal for aviaries, chicken runs, and animal enclosures

Supplied with galvanised ground pegs for secure fixing

Strong, durable, and easy to install

Optional Mesh Ground Cover – 19 Gauge, 1/2" x 1/2" Mesh

The internal mesh is laid inside the enclosure. We use 19 gauge, ½" x ½" Italian galvanised welded mesh, as the smaller mesh aperture helps prevent smaller rodents and vermin from accessing the enclosure should they attempt to burrow underneath, as they are generally more likely to create longer burrows to reach a food source. 

16 Gauge 1/2" x 1/2" Italian Galvanised Wire Mesh — Premium Upgrade

All our runs are built with premium Italian galvanised wire mesh as standard — and this upgrade takes that specification even further. The 16 gauge 1/2" x 1/2" mesh uses heavier gauge wire combined with the same tight 1/2" x 1/2" opening as our standard mesh, giving you an extra layer of reassurance in areas with significant predator activity. 

Optional Draught Boards

Draught boards are integrated into the structure, as shown in the product image. If you would prefer these supplied as separate long boards, please email us at enquiries@vysearks.com with your order number, and we’ll be happy to accommodate your request.

Optional Guttering

The guttering package includes both guttering and downpipes for two sides of the apex roof run, providing effective water drainage and protection.

Construction & Materials

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

Welded Mesh:
Made from 16 gauge 3/4 inch x 3/4 inch Italian galvanised steel welded mesh. Also available in 19 gauge  ½ inch x ½ inch. Please note 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. 34mm x 44mm) for excellent weather resistance and long-lasting structural integrity.
