Hey it is a grate gate for Kids and Dogs, that is why I got it, was to keep my dogs out of the living room, But it wouldn't be good for your rabbits, see my other comment.

We love our gate and it works very well for our toddler. It spans a 6 foot room entrance and is solid for that. It will be more than adequate for your bunny. Only thing you will have to remember is to step over the bottom bar (which would be the case for any gate spanning this length).

No, not realy, you would have to put a roll of Chicken wire on it from top to bottom for it to work, I would get some chain link gate to put up

I wouldn't recommend it - the space between the bars is probably wide enough for a rabbit to fit through. Our cats do it all the time, and unless you have a very fat rabbit it will probably do the same.

Hi there Dhiman. I have a Great Pyrenees that I use this for and it's perfect. It's strong, and there's no way she can get over it. SO, unless your Golden Retriever is a trained sport jumper, I would highly recommend this gate! ;-)

If you have a small rabbit it's perfect pairing with a rabbit fence enclosure. I did take the grate top off the litter box....my rabbit is completely potty trained.

I haven't tried that with this particular hutch. The rabbit can hop from the closed nest box area to the open area in the cage. Most rabbits could probably hop down, but too high to get back in on their own. A flat board to the open door would probably work, though, if you want to give your rabbit freedom to come and go from the hutch. I have done this in the past with other hutches.

If you are looking for a gate with a swing open opening you can walk through you may be out of luck. I haven't seen any so give North States a call and see if they have any suggestions.

Yes, for now but my little dog was strong enough to get out of the little wired doors. My little chihuahua daschund mix is very nervous so she was frantic in there. If you secure the gates better it may work for you but don't forget, if you're not happy with it, YOU'll have to pay return postage which was going to cost me 60.00, Unless you by direct from Amazon

cannot help you there all I know is this jacket is not worth it . Rabbits dont appreciate being strapped up. my recommendation is to give the rabbit space to run.

The top and bottom both have sliding doors that lead into the joined pen. Rabbits are pretty smart especially when they want to breed. I would add a little latch on the sliding doors if you want to make sure they are separated. We also built a lean-to onto our garage to keep the hutch out of the rain and brushed it with water sealer. Looks brand new still. This is the best one we found, it's very good quality for a good price. We have one big rabbit in ours and leave the sliding doors open. With the doors open he goes out in the pen to potty and then you can use the blower to blow it clean and add new wood chips, lol. Makes it much easier.

We use ours for a single rabbit. Given the position of the doors, your best bet for extension would be to remove (or cut the caging wire out of) the triangle shaped end opposite the nesting box. You could then add just about any pen, with a little bending or modification, that had an entry at ground level.

My husband put this gate up because we have a dog, and I liked the design. Also because I wusnted something that would swing open. The easy lach is a big plus. But we have it installed at the top of the stairs. We have a new grand baby, and my concern, is when she gets old enought to crawl/ walk. Is the latch going to be strong enought to keep the gate from breaking open ? I don't want it to be something I have to worry about, her falling doun the stairs. It's screwed into the studs of the doorway on both sides. But I need answeres. Thanks Tammy

It will keep a rabbit in. I wouldn't be comfortable about it keeping an aggressive animal out. It kept my little dogs out, but something more aggressive could push the wire in. Plus the wood is soft. I think you would have to run some additional wire around the outside that couldn't be pushed in.

The door on the right is a ramp. it is nice and wide. My cage raised jersey wooley bunny won't use ramps so I open it and set the end on a box so it makes a bridge and he enjoys the supervised change of scenery, but my daughter's new Zealand has no trouble with it.

Since it has spring tension rods, it would take longer to unscrew and screw back than to just step over it. We keep ours tight. If you aren't agile enough to go over it safely, this might not be the gate for you.

I don't think their hind legs could fit through the doors. also, English lops do get larger. Up to 20lbs. Beautiful rabbits though and very smart. A Mini lop could make it through the doors. You also don't have to use the center part if you don't want to. The cage is completely convertible with whatever you want to do with it. I currently have guinea pigs in it and I don't use the center part with the doors. If you cut the cage, than you would have to rig it to shut again so the buns cant get out of it, but I suppose you COULD cut it. I would make very sure you file the edges down as they will be extremely sharp though.

Hello,The space between the wires are 1 1/2 inches apart. So I am certain your rabbit would not get through. Thank you.

My hammy chewed through the door latch. I would like to buy a replacement door for my Cristal. Only find a door for another model on Amazon. Can anybody suggest a place to buy a full door replacement for a Cristal? Thanks!!!

There are little doors in the wire that I suppose you could leave open if you like and attached another run there if it has a top or cover. The left side at end of ramp has a door there. And there are two that open on the front also. I used metal wire to secure mine closed through the little locks when not open so he couldn't chew threw and I wouldn't have to worry about them popping open somehow. But there was no where I saw to attach another run besides the one it comes with. I'm guessing you're going to attach another on your own some how. It's a real nice hutch and my bunny loved it.
