Just wonder if anyone can recommend a company who deals in/produces galvanised kennel panels for a run, done the normal searches on the web, but just wondered of any first hand info available at the knowledgeable Champdogs Site!!!!  Thanks in advance.

Got my first lot of run panels from Croft - they are still going strong after about 9 years, still look great.  However, they were quite expensive.  Only problem I had with them was a longish wait for delivery (about 5 weeks, I think).  Got my last batch, 18 months ago, plus half height ones for in the dog room last year, from a local guy (George Ternent) who has Springers himself.  They are good, and I have no problem recomending them, but lookin closely the Croft are just a bit better finished.  However, the price and delivery offered were much better than Croft.

This is where we got ours last year. Good service etc.

( Except their dog cages, the trays rust and were not replaced)

Hi, i got mine from a manufacturers who has adverts in the YOUR DOG mag, or one of those dog mags. They are called GPS Engineering, i think they are based in staffordshire. They were cheap and excellent quality, they can also make to measure and you can choose what gauge mesh you want, delivery was within ONE-TWO WEEKS. Also, i know many breeders who use the anti climb temporary security fencing,  they're 6ft high by 11ft wide. All you do is attach them to wooden post, just as good and efficient as kennel panels and can work out ALOT cheaper. Buildbase sell these panels. Hope this helps.

Hi,

I agree with a previous poster i'm delighted with 'Croft'.They are definately worth the extra expense ,my latest was the discovery panels from them which were 4' high they turned these around to me in 48hrs from ordering well impressed and very helpful and clued up.

Try looking in one of the dog papers ie. Dog World or Our dogs there usually are several companies that advertise panels in there.

I would just endorse the recommendation Blue made above.  Kingstown.net were brilliant - can't rate their service highly enough, excellent prices too!

Canine Kennels. Found them the cheapest and the best quality

we got our runsfrom canine, they are very reasonable and deliver in two weeks. I believe they supply to the Queen! :)

We got ours (many years ago) from Chase Engineering based in Cannock Staffordshire. They are very reasonable and make them to whatever  design you want. We have probably had ours for 7+ years now and recently had them extended when we moved and the new panels didn't look any different to the old.  They occasionally advertise in the Dog papers but you should get their number from 118500.   

Hi Mel,

Try Coningsby Metals in Lincolnshire, there pretty good.
