Use With Any Type Of Chain Link Fence

Use Dig Defence units to “tie” chain link fencing to the ground by interlocking the bottom links during installation. Dig Defence extends the protection of your fence underground to keep pets and furry intruders from pushing or digging under.

Protect Wood Privacy Fencing

Dig Defence can be used to close gaps under a wood privacy fence to keep animals from squeezing under or starting a hole for escapees. It also helps you avoid sitting wood planks directly on the ground, allowing a longer life for your fence.

XL Model for Immediate and Max Protection

Use the XL model in established favorite digging spots to stop the behavior, stat. Each XL model is 24" long and 15" deep with 1.5" tine spacing. Built for a lifetime of service with no maintenance, no wasted energy costs, and total peace of mind.

Decorative Fencing

Most vinyl, wrought iron, and other decorative fencing is installed with a gap purposely placed at the bottom of the fence—you might as well have a sign welcoming all animals to go under it! Dig Defence lets you stop the dig and correct the gap.

About Dig Defence

Dig Defence provides protection for pets and property. These no-maintenance units can be installed at the base of an already existing fence to ensure animals will not be able to enter or leave the fenced area.

Questions & Answers

4 Customer Questions

How high is the dig defence?

Answer by Chewy • Jul 24, 2023
Each barrier is 15 inches long, 24 inches wide and features a 1.5-inch spacing between spikes. Please refer to the image included below for reference.

What gauge are the stakes?

Answer by Chewy • Feb 10, 2024
All units are made with 4 gauge solid steel wire.

Why only 15 in deep? Could a dog dig below that?

Answer by Chewy • Nov 01, 2025
Utilities are typically buried at 18 inches, Dig Defence stopped at 15 to ensure they aren't disturbed, no matter the geographic area. As to this particular model, it has the deepest protection and the smallest spike spacing for the most aggressive diggers. When installed at the base of the fence, it extends the protection underground. Animals only see the point of attack at the bottom of the fence and don't know to start digging back from the fence to go under.

How long are each bar

Answer by Chewy • Jul 04, 2025
The height is 15 inches.

I purchased the XL as I don't want to risk the dogs escaping. The panels are weighty and seem to be of great quality for their suited purpose. I wish the XL came in black as I will have to spray paint the top portions so as to not be obvious once installed against our black fence.

This was just what we needed for our little Houdini. Now she can’t get out where there were small gaps under the fence and gate. Hubby put a small 2x4 on top and used a rubber mallet to pound in the sections in the ground. Very sturdy.

We have dangerous dogs on 2 sides of our property. They've killed cats and small dogs so we don't mess around when it cones to safety. These have been great to close the gap at the bottom of our 8ft privacy fence. It allows water to pass through and was easy to hammer into the ground (we soaked the spots in water to help make it easier)

I bought 15 of the XL panels. It is for around my deck so when my cat escapes he can’t hide under my deck. And my Newfies see the car go under the deck and they are digging a hole. It was easy to install with their tool to put on top of the panel and hammer with my rubber mallet. I put all 15 panels up in about 1.5 hrs. They are firmly in the ground and are very sturdy! I may have to get some more for around my shed! I highly recommend this product!

Strong Metal

I don’t think this item will bend. Plus, it is deep enough that critters are not going to want to dig underneath it.

This is probably not the usual installation. There are space under my fence that are too small for Great Pyrenees to use but really good for the wild rabbits to use to come and go. Cousin huskies are going to visit and they may be able to wiggle under so I bought these fillers to keep the huskies in while visiting but be able to remove them later for the rabbits. Perhaps too many animals with diverse needs but it all works out here !
