Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the overall size of the pen when fully assembled as pictured?

The product description mentions a 160cm x 160cm configuration, which uses multiple panels. The exact size depends on the number of panels you connect.

Can I add more panels than what comes in the standard pack?

Yes, additional extension panels are available in sizes 20cm, 40cm, 60cm, and 80cm, as well as extra 80cm door opening panels.

Is the wood treated with any chemicals?

No, the pen features a quality natural wood finish that is free from harmful chemicals, making it safe for pets.

How secure is the door lock?

The door features a double-lock system designed to be unopenable by young children but easily operated with one hand by adults. It has also passed the EN1930:2011 safety standard's 10,000-rattle test.

Can this pen be used outdoors?

This pen is designed for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements may damage the wood and compromise its safety features.

How do I clean the pen?

Wipe the natural wood finish with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners to protect the finish.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 1-year guarantee.

Is it possible to make the pen into a room divider?

Yes, an optional Wall Mounting Kit can be purchased separately to transform the pen into a secure room divider or barrier.

Troubleshooting

Pen feels unstable or wobbly.

Ensure all connecting hinges and joints are securely fastened. For added stability on hard floors, consider placing non-slip mats under the panels. If using as a barrier, consider the optional Wall Mounting Kit for a fixed solution.

Door mechanism is stiff or difficult to open.

Check for any obstructions in the locking mechanism. Ensure the panels around the door are correctly aligned. A light application of a pet-safe lubricant on the hinges might help, but use sparingly.

Pet is attempting to climb or jump over the pen.

The 76cm height is suitable for many pets, but for very tall or agile dogs, this pen might not be sufficient. Consider reinforcing the configuration or exploring alternative containment solutions if this becomes an issue. Ensure the pen is configured with solid panels facing outwards if your pet tries to push through.

Wood finish shows signs of wear from chewing.

While the finish is designed to be chew-resistant, very determined pets may cause wear. Ensure your pet has appropriate chew toys available. Minor wear can often be touched up with a pet-safe wood finish, but persistent damage may require panel replacement.
