3. Assembly Instructions
Assembly typically requires two people. Follow these steps carefully:
- Prepare the Area: Choose a flat, level outdoor area for the kennel. Clear any debris or obstacles.
- Assemble the Base Frame: Connect the bottom galvanized tubes to form the rectangular base of the kennel. Ensure all connections are secure.
- Install Vertical Supports: Attach the vertical galvanized tubes to the base frame. These will form the uprights for the kennel walls.
- Attach Top Frame: Connect the top galvanized tubes to the vertical supports, creating the upper frame of the kennel.
- Install Wire Mesh Panels: Unroll and attach the chain link wire mesh panels to the frame using the provided metal ties. Ensure the mesh is taut and securely fastened to prevent loosening or bending. The mesh features a 2.5mm thick wire for enhanced durability.

4. Operating Instructions
Using your Lyromix Outdoor Dog Kennel is straightforward:
- Main Door: To open, slide the latch mechanism and pull the door open. Ensure the door is securely latched when your pet is inside.
- Feeding Door: The upper section of the feeding door can be opened independently to add food or water to the bowls. To adjust the height of the bowls, locate the adjustment pins on the side of the feeding device and reposition them to the desired level.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance will help prolong the life of your dog kennel:
- Cleaning: Clean the galvanized frame and wire mesh regularly with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry. The stainless steel bowls should be cleaned after each use.
- Roof Cover: Periodically clean the roof cover to remove dirt and debris. Ensure it remains securely attached and free of tears or damage.
- Inspection: Routinely check all connections, latches, and the wire mesh for any signs of wear, rust, or damage. Tighten any loose bolts or ties. Replace any damaged parts immediately to maintain safety and integrity.
6. Troubleshooting
Here are solutions to common issues:
- Loose Wire Mesh: If the wire mesh becomes loose, re-secure it using additional metal ties or adjust existing ones to ensure tightness.
- Door Not Latching: Check for any obstructions in the latch mechanism. Ensure the door frame is properly aligned.
- Roof Sagging: Verify that the roof cover is evenly stretched and securely fastened at all attachment points. Adjust tension if necessary.
