Double Hampton Dog Kennel and Run

Our wooden outdoor Double Hampton Dog Kennel and Run was installed to a prominent country estate in Newbury.  The setting was stunning and made the job much more enjoyable for us!

Our customer opted for the Onduline kennel roofing upgrade, which is a corrugated bitumen based roof covering that provides extra protection from the outdoor weather and also has a longer life span than standard kennel felt.  The dog kennel sleeping areas were insulated then lined with 2mm PVC sheets which provides an easy clean kennel surface.  The kennel was also upgraded to have our anti-bacterial wipe-clean Phenolic coated flooring.  The dog runs were separated by a galvanised dog run panel which allows them to be kept apart whilst still being able to see each other for company.  Our customer also requested two of our wipe clean raised dog beds to go inside each of the dog kennel runs.  These are made from our Phenolic coated kennel flooring so are wipe clean and anti-bacterial, and we add aluminium anti-chew around the edges to prevent the dogs chewing on them.

A perfect kennel solution for keeping your dogs outdoors.

Dog Kennel Care and Maintenance

It’s the most wonderful time of the year… to carry out maintenance checks on your dog kennel!

With winter fast approaching, now is the best time to check around your dog’s kennel for signs of wear and tear and to keep it in tip-top condition.  A well looked after dog kennel will repay the favour and will last you for years to come.  So get out your wire brush and give it a good rub down, remove any overhang that may damage the felt (such as tree branches) and buy yourself a good quality brush on, solvent-based preservative to protect your timber from the elements.  Brush away any dirt, leaves and moss and give it a good rinse down.
Our top tips:
Treat your kennel annually: 
We always recommend that you treat your new garden building shortly after installation with a good quality water resistant treatment. This process should then be repeated annually.


Ensure zero contact with your kennel:
 
Any overhanging tree or hedge growth poses a threat to your wooden dog kennel and should be cut back at regular intervals. An overhanging tree branch can pierce the kennel roofing felt and would encourage water ingress.  Any damaged felt needs to be dealt with quickly.  If you do find damage sustained over time then the felt will need to be removed and replaced.

Lubrication:
All hinges should be lubricated with suitable oil to ensure continued ease of use.  Follow these easy steps to ensure your dog’s kennel and run can stand up to the elements – in turn prolonging its kennel life and keeping your dog safe, dry and happy.
