EXTENSIVE PRODUCT LINE |
Mason offers the widest variety of housing options in the industry. Gates in stainless steel grid, galvanized grid, powder coat, tempered glass and chain link. Isolation panels of stainless steel, galvanized metal, FRP or Wilsonart. Accessories include remote feeders and watering systems, rest benches and shelves, bird perches, remote operators for shift/transfer doors, observation windows and others. All of these can be made in standard or custom sizes to meet a facility’s unique footprint and requirements. A word on Mason chain link – Since 1892 it has been regarded as the finest in the industry. We purchase the highest grade electro-galvanized wire and weave it ourselves to ensure a smooth, burr-free finish to protect the animals. It comes in 3 different gauges, 4 different diamond sizes and in almost any width required. After weaving, the chain link is hand laced to tubular frames by experienced craftsmen for an incredibly taught finish that stops animals from finding any loose areas to pull on or work loose. All lacing wire is individually knuckled to assure no sharp edges.It is simply the best! |

DESIGN EXPERIENCE |
Mason works with hundreds of animal facilities annually, year after year. Chances are if you have a design issue, our team of talented and highly trained project engineers will have seen the issue before. Best of all, our design advice is free.

CUSTOM SIZES |
Mason is unique in its ability to customize almost any animal enclosure. One size does not fit all, and the unique size and attributes of an animal and its husbandry team should determine the size and configuration of its enclosure – not the other way around. We routinely build enclosures with tolerances down to the nearest 1/8 inch. This manufacturing precision means your enclosures fit perfectly together for years of use. |

|
INSTALLATION SERVICES |
The finest animal enclosures will not operate properly or last their expected lifetime if installed poorly or incorrectly. Mason offers its own teams of professional installers. Our crews will build the equipment and then travel to install it, so you know it will be done correctly and efficiently. Ask your Mason Sales Consultant about a separate quote for this service. |
