A basic run is made up of 3 frames and a gate. Each frame uses 4 corner clamps. We highly recommend the gate design that is pictured, one that uses a gate frame that is at least a foot wider than the gate. This section of the frame adds a lot of strength to the gate frame when the mesh is laced in. Even if you want your pen or run to be 3 feet wide we recommend a 2 foot gate in a 3 foot frame.

Runs are fastened to a building or fence that makes the back wall. Many runs are built both inside and outside of a building. Runs are the most economical kennels because they utilize an existing wall and you only need one side and one gate to add a run to a set of existing runs.

Tri-Clamps are used in between runs to hold two gate frames and a side panel.

Risers are used to elevate the kennel holding it above the floor so that you can use a water hose and wash out under the kennels. They should only be used on cement floors or other hard level surfaces. Use at least 2 risers per frame. (T-Support clamps can also be used as risers (if you have an unleveled floor use a pipe in the t-support clamp to adjust the height of the riser)

Double clamps are used to fasten the corners together or to fasten two frames end to end.

T-Support clamps are used to fasten a pipe at a right angle within a frame, for upright or cross support. They come in 2 sizes: 3/4 to 3/4 and 3/4 to 1/2 ( to fit 3/4" ID water pipe or 1/2" ID water pipe) They can also be used as risers (if you have an unleveled floor use a pipe in the T-Support clamp to adjust the height of the riser)
