i.Pet 20 Panel Pet Playpen – Foldable Metal Puppy Fence and Small Animal Enclosure, Black

i.Pet 20 Panel Playpen: A Safe, Flexible Space for Puppies and Small Pets

The i.Pet 20 Panel Pet Playpen gives your puppy, rabbit, guinea pig or other small pet a safe space to play, rest and learn. Twenty black steel wire panels clip together with plastic connectors, letting you build an enclosure in the size and shape that suits your room. Use it to keep a new puppy out of trouble while you cook or work, to create a toilet training zone, or to give rabbits and guinea pigs supervised floor time. A lockable access door makes getting in and out easy.

Build the Shape You Need

Each panel measures 35 x 35cm, and the included connectors let you join them side by side and stack them two panels high for a 70cm tall pen. Arrange them into a rectangle, square, L-shape or divider, or build a two-level design for small animals. For example, stacking panels two high with a footprint three panels long and two panels wide creates a pen of roughly 105 x 70cm, 70cm tall. Buy extra sets and join them to make the play area bigger.

Designed With Pets in Mind

The steel wire frame is strong and see-through, so your pet can still watch and feel part of the family. Rounded edges on the panels are gentler on paws and noses, and the access door has a secure lock system to stop escapes. Locks are included to join the ends of the playpen so the enclosure stays closed. Assembly needs no tools, and a rubber hammer is included to tap connectors firmly into place.

How to Configure a 20 Panel Dog Playpen

1. Decide on height: for puppies and jumpy pets, stack panels two high (70cm). For guinea pigs and bunnies, one or two levels both work.
2. Plan the footprint: with two-high walls, use 10 panels per level. A 3 x 2 rectangle gives about 105 x 70cm; a 2 x 3 layout gives the same area in the other direction.
3. Build the base level: connect panels on a flat floor with the plastic connectors, tapping them in with the rubber hammer.
4. Add the second level: clip the next row of panels on top of the first.
5. Fit the door: position the panel with the access door where it's easy for you to reach.
6. Lock the ends: use the included locks to close the enclosure securely.

For a bigger space, build one level only (35cm tall) for small animals, or join a second set.

Is a Metal Playpen Suitable for Large Puppies?

This playpen is best for small breed puppies and young puppies of medium breeds, plus small animals like rabbits and guinea pigs. With 35cm panels and a maximum height of about 70cm when stacked, a large or fast-growing puppy may soon be able to jump out, lean on or push the lightweight panels. For large breeds such as Labradors, German Shepherds or Kelpies, it works as a short-term pen for very young pups under supervision, but a taller, heavier exercise pen is a better long-term choice. Placing the pen against a wall or corner adds stability.

How to Fold and Store a Multi-Panel Pet Fence

When you're done, tap the connectors apart, then stack the flat panels neatly on top of each other. Keep the connectors, locks and hammer together in a zip-lock bag so nothing goes missing. The stack slides under a bed, behind a cupboard or into the car boot, making it easy to take the playpen to a friend's place, holiday house or park for supervised time outdoors.
