Free-Standing Cat Fence Enclosure System

A Modular and Flexible Cat Containment Fencing System Purrfect Fence is designed to easily secure a perimeter of cat-proof fencing. It can be configured to different sizes to make your system as spacious as you would like. You can also use freestanding cat fence segments together with cat-proofed areas of an existing fence using an Existing Fence Conversion System Kit. Why Purrfect Fence is the Most Secure Cat Fence Available The secret is in the patented Cat-Proofer™ extender arms, which enable the entire upper section of the fence to pivot. If a cat does climb to the top of the fence, the extender arms will pivot downward under their weight. The sensation causes cats to naturally let go of the fence, dropping safely back to the ground. A Tough Cat Fence Built to Last All of the materials and components used with our Freestanding Fence system were selected for a specific purpose to work together and create a long-lasting fence barrier. The posts, arms, and all other metal components are made with galvanized or stainless steel. All black metal components are also powder-coated for more durability outdoors. The bottom portion of the fence is made with galvanized welded wire that serves as a "chew guard" and “dig guard” which keeps cats from digging or chewing their way out, and it keeps other unwanted critters from getting in. The black coating on the wire mesh is UV stabilized with carbon black and chemical UV inhibitors to slow the rate the fence fades over the years in sunlight. The upper portion of the fence material is made of durable polypropylene mesh that is heavy-duty but remains flexible. This mesh has a breaking strength of around 600 lbs and has been proven difficult for cats to climb - acting as the first line of defense in escape prevention! Like the coating on the welded wire, our poly mesh is also UV stabilized for longevity outdoors. We’ve done dozens of head-to-head tests with competing cat fences and their materials to test their strength, durability, and longevity. That includes a test submerging the fences in a saltwater brine for weeks on end. We can definitively say that Purrfect Fence is the strongest and most durable cat containment fence available. Planning Your Cat Fence A 100-foot kit made into a square would be approximately 24' x 24' (576 square feet) but most customers use the back of their house as a "side" allowing a kit to make a larger overall enclosure and easier access for the cats. One example of a 100-foot kit enclosure off the back of a house would be 28' x 40' (28' out from the house - over 40' and back 28') making an enclosure that is 1,120 square feet. A 200 ft kit enclosure off the back of a house could be 64' x 64' (64' out from the house - over 64' and back 64') making an enclosure that is 4,096 square feet. We can assist you with outfitting any size yard! Our planning engineers can help you pick the best cat containment fence based on your yard’s size, cat’s needs, and financial requirements. Check out our sample layouts to help you get an idea of what you’re looking for. While most pet parents can utilize a freestanding kit, others may require fence customization.

This document gives us the ability to evaluate your situation and provide you with a plan and an estimate. If the setup you’re interested in requires more components or posts, you can always purchase extras. Also, don’t forget to add a gate or two, especially if your mower needs an outlet into the freestanding cat fence. Find Your Property Size Using Google Maps Are These Enclosures Difficult To Set Up?

Installation Our freestanding system is designed to be installed by the average handy homeowner. Below you will find links to instructions as well as a short video describing the process. Printable Installation Instructions Frequently Asked Questions Installation Video (Introduction)     Reference "What's Included." If your layout includes multiple turns or very specific side lengths, you may need additional posts (see product 2-Post Kit) above and beyond what is provided in the kits. To determine if you need more posts use these rules:  Every end and corner/turn needs a post. Every change in grade (up/down) needs a post.  Measure between the posts that need to be in specific locations (see rules 1&2) and divide by 14' (maximum post spacing).  If the total posts you need is more than 8 x's the number of kits you are buying you need that many more posts.
