10 x 10 x 6ft Chain Link Panels - Page 1

Anyone know of anyone getting rid of any 10x10x6 chain link panels in the CT, RI, MA, NH, NJ etc.. area???? EBAY doesnt really have anything worth the money. Lowes had this 10x10 pen for 218.00 thought that was kinda high but one of the walls was the gate/door. What would you typically pay for 10x10x6 panel? I cant find any at Home Depot either.. Trying to get things organized to be able to take care of a few friends dogs for them... want it "bitch fight" proof lol thanks! Dawnmarie

Hi Dawnmarie, Do not know of anyone getting rid of any panels. But Randy makes some nice dog runs at a reasonable price. Here is the link: http://www.1stklasskennels.com/index.html

Stay away from those cheap pens.They are made of a cheap 11-1/2 gauge wire also the fence ties on them are easy for the dog to chew and swallow. Your best bet is to go to chain-link fence company in your area,should be plenty in your phonebook and ask them to build you one out of 9 gauge wire with a better shedule post.Also ask them to use steel ties-they cant chew them. And I would prefer a 8x16 ft. its not much more than the cost of 10x10.You should at least have 2 support bars in the 16 ft panels and 1 in the 8 ft panel. Take my word! Been there done that. It may cost more but you will have one that will last you a life-time.

dawnmarie - i bought a 10x10x6 package from lowe's a few years ago, and it has been very functional. but they sell 2 kinds: one is in panels and one is the rails around which you stretch the chain link fabric. buy the panel one!!! i have moved it several times, and it's pretty easy to deal with - i can dissamble, move and reasssemble by myself. if you want it for your yard, my recommendation is to set it on a foundation of bricks. then put in either sand or pea gravel (preferred) for a base. the bricks keep your base where it belongs (mostly :-))

Thanks for the input Kenny. Those runs look nice but if they are cheap I will will go with the chain-link fence.

hey thanks guys! we have had the back yard fenced in for years.. and i didnt want to do anything permanent incase we move to a some dream house with 20 acres of land LOL i will check all this stuff i really appreciate it! let ya know what find out :) Dawnmarie

Hey Dawnmarie, I wish you were close to MN - I have a custom kennel with heavy gauge wire that I had made when I was in South Dakota - I had it attached to my heated potting shed with a great galvinized door. My boy was in it from 8-5 while I was working then he was in with me. Anyway, when I had it made I had them do two gates in the front and that it could be split in the middle in case I got another dog. 16 feet x 6 feet 8 feet x 6 feet Since moving to suburbia MN - the do not allow outdoor kennels in the neighborhoods - so I spent lots of $$$$ on wood fencing and landscaping out back - he is never out there when I am not home....... Anyway I bet I spent 1,200 on it and need to get it out of the suburia 3 car garage, do you have anyone coming to the MN area from the east coast - with a big rig??????

Sutherlands also has the 10 x 6 or 10 x 10 panels. They are cheap and light weight but will work for a non aggressive dog. My stud will bend the gate and be out within minutes but my females do just fine in them. They are easy to move and light weight enough that I can move them by myself. Jan :-)

OMG Renz ya know i was just in Wisconsin... could have grabbed it LOL my friend lives in MN but not sure i will be about to get out there... all i would need is a flatbed,really.. right? if you want email me vonwymargsd@optonline.net ya never know lol thanks

Here is the link: http://www.1stklasskennels.com/index.html" I agree 200% with Garry, although I purchased all my kennels from the company's former owner, Dan Gurganus, I do know he made sure that the new owner learned how to assemble the panels and dog boxes the same way, and from Dan says, these guys do a GREAT job! These runs will last for years,(mine are only 4 yrs old right now and can hold just about *anything*). They weather well, can be taken apart and put back together again with ease, and more importantly, without any signs of the quality deteriorating. Because I value my dogs' safety in the highest regard, I spent what I did on the kennel set up to ensure it would be around forever, or close to it ;) I really like the fact that each and every piece is HAND WELDED, not mass produced, and hey, why not truly "BUY AMERICAN" You would never regret a purchase from this manufacturer!
