Zippity Outdoor Products 39in Black Metal Fence DIY Kit — 5-Panel No-Dig Pet & Garden Barrier, Rust-Resistant

The Zippity 39in H Black Metal Fence DIY Kit is a five-panel, no-dig metal barrier designed to contain small-to-medium dogs and protect garden beds while being quick to assemble and weather-resistant.

This DIY fence kit blends practical containment with low-profile curb appeal for yards and flowerbeds. Each kit contains five identical panels that connect with simple stakes so you can create a temporary playpen, edging, or animal barrier without concrete, tools beyond a mallet, or professional help. Built from rust-resistant black metal wire, it’s aimed at homeowners who want an easy, expandable solution for pets and landscaping.

How tall and long is the fence when assembled?

Each panel measures 39 inches high by 36 inches wide. With five panels included, a single kit creates 180 inches (15 feet) of continuous fence length. You can add more kits to extend coverage or shape the layout to form an enclosure or border.

• Panel height: 39 inches (suitable visual barrier for small-to-medium dogs)
• Panel width: 36 inches
• Total length per kit: 180 inches (5 panels)
• Expandable by purchasing additional units

How easy is installation for non-professionals?

Installation is designed to be fast and intuitive: no digging, no concrete, and no complex tools are required. Each panel has integrated stakes; you use a mallet to hammer the stakes into soil, and panels link together to form a continuous fence. Most users can assemble their fence in minutes, making it ideal for quick seasonal setups or temporary layouts.

• No-dig assembly—stakes insert directly into the ground
• Only a mallet or hammer needed for installation
• Panels connect easily to form curves or straight runs
• Quick to reconfigure or remove for storage

Will this keep my pets and garden safe?

The wire mesh and 39-inch height provide a clear physical barrier that helps contain small and many medium-sized dogs while discouraging wildlife or foot traffic from entering beds. It's not a replacement for trained supervision or heavy-duty kennels for strong, persistent diggers and climbers, but it works well as a soft containment boundary and protective garden edge.

• Recommended for small to medium dogs and puppies
• Useful as a garden edging to protect plants and flowers
• Not intended as a primary solution for large, powerful escape artists
• Combine with additional panels or an appropriate gate (search WF29014) for enclosures

How durable is the fence outdoors over time?

The fence is made from heavy-duty metal wire with a rust-resistant black finish to withstand typical yard exposure. It’s intended for seasonal and year-round use in many climates, though extreme coastal or highly corrosive environments may require occasional inspection. Regular checks for stability and touch-up paint will extend the life of the fence.

• Rust-resistant black metal construction
• Heavy-gauge wire for structural strength
• Simple maintenance: tighten connections and inspect stakes
• Replaceable and expandable panels for long-term flexibility

Who is this for? The Zippity 39in H Black Metal Fence DIY Kit is aimed at homeowners, renters with yards, and gardeners who need an approachable, no-fuss barrier for pets and planted areas. It’s ideal if you want a temporary or semi-permanent solution that’s quick to install, easy to expand, and visually understated. Choose this kit if you need a reliable garden edge, a small-dog playpen, or a versatile fencing option that won’t require heavy tools or professional installation.
