The screen ships with zip ties to attach to the x-pen. I would loke removeable attachments to make it easier to move for lawn mowing and cleaning up. Currently experimenting with bungie cords and carabiners.
I ordered 3 of these. 2 of the 3 came with the zip-ties. Not all sewn exactly perfect. However i would still purchase these again if i needed a few more.
The sunscreen shade is great, full marks, 10/10 love that it's the exact right dimensions. But attaching shade to xpen with "cable ties"? That would then be cut off and replaced each time? Nope, not gonna happen. Had some small ball bungee loops and clamps on hand which works much better for my use, putting up and taking down xpen & shade each day at field trials.
I do not believe these block 80% like the manufacturer states. Maybe 40%? I think pet owners should be aware that the kennel will still get too much sun and be too hot to be safe for their animals.
Well made.. very pleased easy to install. Perfect!!
