Netting attached to a patio.
Stand-alone free-standing cat enclosures.Xcluder® has been containing or excluding both pet and feral cats since 1996, when we first started designing fences and barriers. We have seen the value that pet cats bring to many people’s lives, but also the disease and environmental damage that cats can cause when in the wrong places.
A cat enclosure is an ideal way to provide your cat a healthy outdoor experience, whilst ensuring their, safety and protecting local wildlife. We have a range of cat fence or enclosure options and products that can be used to keep cats in or out.
There are three main categories of Catnet products:
- Fence line netting.
- Netting attached to existing structures (ie: verandah, patio, side alley etc).
- Stand-alone free-standing cat enclosure. Glass house frames have proven to be very suitable for building free standing enclosures.
Xcluder® supplies some of the cat netting and accessories required for a D.I.Y Catnet self-installation at wholesale prices. We supply a full list of products required for self-installation and although we do not stock all of these items they are readily available through hardware suppliers. Cat enclosures self-installed, on average, cost less than half of those installed by professionals.
Xcluder® does not provide measure-up or design assistance, nor do we do installations. We suggest you contact a builder, local handyman, or other knowledgeable person to assist with your design and measure-up.
Take a look at our Catnet products and accessories below and download one or both of these handy guides:
Add up the length of all netting edges, so you can work out how much wire rope or black edging rope you need, and how many eyelets and fastenings you will need to install your enclosure.
