For larger breeds such as French Lops – British Giant – Flemish Giant etc…This 6ft large two storey hutch is made from Redwood and has two exterior graded hardwood ply base panels.
The roof is boarded with the same shiplap as the hutch and is constructed on the same principle as the traditional roof on a domestic house. Beneath the boarding is a polypropylene twin skin rigid membrane with an air gap to ensure extra warmth and a watertight construction. The air gap provides an insulating barrier inside the hutch to help prevent heat loss. We are the only company to provide this level of insulation as an integral part of our product. The roof also has a 3” (75mm) overhang to all sides.
We only use 1st class materials for an unbeatable build quality
The hutch is constructed from Swedish Redwood and is cladded on the outside with 12mm shiplap. The door frames are made out of a substantial 34mm x 46mm section and come with two solids boarded doors on the left and two wire doors on the right.
A winter rabbit hutch design for maximum winter protection
All the wire aspects of this hutch are covered with removable winter panels. This is the ultimate hutch in terms of both light and security. It is entirely Predator safe rabbit hutch and offers the maximum wellbeing to your pet when the panels are fitted. It is the absolute in best of both worlds in allowing light into the hutch but also offering the maximum security to the upper and lower levels of the hutch especially through the night with the winter panels fitted. The left hand end of the top hutch is designated as the sleeping area and there is an internal divider that can easily be removed in seconds to allow you to clean the entire hutch throughout.
Locks included for extra security
The hutch has the added feature of having two additional doors in the centre of the door frame. These replace the fixed wire panel and provided access easily to all areas of the hutch on both levels. The hutch’s solid doors come with black tower bolts and spring loaded catches on the wire door as well as a turn button for added security. The tower bolts are a standard feature on all solid doors but can be upgraded to padlock bolts for a nominal charge.
The hutch will come on 6” (150mm) legs as standard.
This hutch is made entirely in The United Kingdom by us and is not sold by any other company in the UK.

For maximum protection, we can tanalise your product (a form of pressure treatment) to help give you up to 10 years without the worry from dry rot and normal decay typical to all outdoor wooden furniture. Click here to find out more.
Maintenance
All our products are finished with a Teak water based (non toxic) preservative. The timber should be re-coated with an equivalent preservative every year to ensure the maximum life span of the product.
Oil based coatings are the best as they tend to repel water before it penetrates the timber fibers.
Re-coating is best undertaken on a warm dry day or even better after a dry spell when the timber has had time to dry enough to absorb the coating you are applying.
Additional Protection
Here’s a bit of a tip – get yourself an atomizer spray!
Get yourself an atomizer spray – the sort you do your indoor plant leaves with. Most DIY shops sell what’s called a waterproofing agent. Thompson’s Water seal is a brand name but “B&Q” do their own brand.
Fill the atomizer with it and spray over the external surfaces of the product a couple of times a year. It’s really quick and easy. Don’t forget to wear appropriate mask and gloves. Follow the Health and safety instructions on the container.
