Okay- I am so THANKFUL this fencing option is available. It was advertised and pictured initially as an option for people with RV’s needing a solution for their pets and I believe that’s an awesome idea and that it would be effective, however we are using it to simply cordon off a secure area for our two pugs.The quality and versatility, sturdiness, and portability along with affordability of these gates makes them nearly a necessity if you have small dogs or even medium to large dogs that you know won’t attempt to escape.If you’re trying to create an outside play area of sorts without having to use a small dog crate, lead or spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on fencing then this is a good solution.We are on 38 acres of unfenced land that includes ponds, a creek, forest area and even open land for farming yet we have two pugs, one of which is blind.They were easy to assemble (our kids helped), so far have held up in the weather and are showing only a few signs of rust on the gate latch. This is impressive considering the volatility of the weather here in the Midwest.Well beyond worth the money. We purchased a few different variations on paneling and height in order to customize for our needs and I don’t regret the decision. I only regret not doing this much sooner.Even though it has the pins that fit nicely into the ground and help secure and stabilize it.If you’re using it for a long section as I have pictures I suggest also using ground stakes since those are not a feature that is supplied and place at the base to add stability otherwise it is a little wobbly in some areas depending on the evenness of the ground you’re working with and again, how large of an area you’re cordoning off. small dogs who are more agile and adventurous can potentially find a way over or simply jump. We dog sat for a family member and he has a small and very smart little shitzu mix who hops right over. In which case maybe opt for the taller options that are available.Overall very pleased with the efficiency of this gate system and would recommend!
