This solid hardwood 2' x 6' dog crate is 50% longer than our large 2' x4' wooden dog crate, and with 11 square feet inside, is able to hold lots more puppy stuff!
By default, the 6' sides of this pen are constructed by putting a 2' fence panel end-to-end with a 4' fence panel when you set it up. The gate will be built into one of the four 2' fence panels, so when setting it up, you can locate the gate on the 2' "end" of the pen, or on either side (left or right) of the 4' fence panel in the 6' side of the pen. The only "downside" to this is that the 6' long sides are not divided in the middle, and if you would be adding a divider and want equally sized spaces with each half having a gate, we recommend a 2x6 having two 3' fences that make up each 6' side so the divider would also interlock with the joined end-to-end 3' fences. Please contact me so I can give you more details if this is something you might be interested in; there cost is no cost difference between these options.
1. Easy to maintain dual-layer fabric floor included:
-- Completely protects your home floor, impervious to fluids and will not shred from claws
-- Doubles as the pen's carrying case (handles hide underneath when set up)
-- Snaps onto the fencing to prevent escape by nosing under the fence, prevents the pet inside from pushing the pen around in your room and can't be bunched-up like blankets and unfastened floor liners commonly are by pets inside pens
-- Machine washable and bleach-safe
2. Convenient and lightweight - No tools are required for its 1-2 minute setup or disassembly, easy to clean and impervious to typical household cleaning chemicals,
3. Our totally unique pet gate has unparalleled features:
-- It's super easy to open, close, latch and lock. Only a 2-4 inch reach (down) and 3/4" lift is all that's needed to operate it
-- It has a "stay open" feature that maintains access for pets into and out of the pen
-- It's removable in seconds with no tools needed
-- It's quiet unlike metal and rolling barn door-style crate gates
4. Secure and safe with closely-spaced top-to-bottom dowels:
-- Climb-out escapes are inhibited because there's nothing for hind paws to step on as there are with wire and plastic pens
-- Provides for excellent airflow unlike fencing made with acrylic, solid or carved wood side panels, or other enclosed-sided pens that accumulate odors and unwanted particulates.
-- Provides for excellent pet visibility.
-- 7/8" gap prevents virtually all dog heads from poking through and deters chewing.
-- The pen dowels are easily replaced if needed - no tools required over 80% of the time (kits available in the store).
5. 100% American-made quality
-- Only top-grade knot-free solid hardwood and non-toxic water-based lacquer or water-based polyurethane is used if ordered finished.
-- If ordered unfinished, it's delivered completely sanded and ready for you to apply a finish. If ordered finished, all the individual parts were sanded and finished prior to pen assembly with a minimum 6-step process (sand-clear coat, repeat...) for clear and solid-colors, or a minimum 8-step process for color-stained finishing (sand-stain-sand-clear coat-sand-clear coat...)
6. Plenty of options!
-- Customize its size (convo me to work through the details)
-- Choose from a selection of floor color combinations
-- Choose which way you want the gate to open (R or L - specify in order notes; see why below)
-- Add an available top cover if you have a super-jumper
-- Add a divider panel (with or without another gate) to separate multiple pets
7. Spacious convenience – plenty of space to keep your smaller dog comfortable by providing:
-- food and water, a cozy den (e.g., portable carrier), toys, a bed, and a potty pad
-- Can contain multiple pets simultaneously - and their messes!
Puppy and other pen contents shown in photos are not included.
FINISHING DETAILS:
You can order your pen finished (see image 3) or unfinished (ready-for-you-to-finish; see image 2).
When I finish it, I finish all the little individual parts prior to pen assembly with a 4-step process (sand-coat-sand-coat) applying 2 clear or solid-color coats (sealer and finish coats) of very hard completely safe waterborne lacquer. I use a 6-step process for color-stained finishing: sand-stain-sand-clear-sand-clear.
FLOOR MAT COLOR PERSONALIZATION:
If you would like a floor mat color combination other than the default brown (pen interior) and black (outer perimeter/underside), click below on the "Add your personalization (optional)" button below to see your options. There is one exception: if you order a white lacquered pen, the default floor mat interior color is taupe (to better coordinate with the white pen, IMHO).
