How to buy your Oscillot® cat fence system

Most people install the Oscillot system themselves or get a local handyperson to do it. On this page, we’ll guide you through the process of measuring your fences and working out the components required.

If you need advice, contact us and we’ll work with you to get it sorted.

Step 1: Get to know the Oscillot® system

Components are sold in a range of DIY kits intended to cover various length of fences. Each kit includes paddles and dual post kits.

Because each installation is unique, you may need more dual post kits, so these can be purchased separately.

Brackets, which are recommended when face-mounting on timber fences, should be purchased separately (generally, one bracket for each dual post).

Other materials may be required to ensure your cat cannot jump over the Oscillot® System. For example, you may need to prune or band trees, or place guards around “launching pads” such as heat pumps or water tanks. Please see our Special Installations photos for solutions to these situations.

If you have an extremely agile cat, such as a Bengal, you may need to provide additional cat-proofing measures.

We are happy to offer advice based on years of experience.

Step 2: Measure your fence and work out your requirements

Use the following illustration to guide you in calculating how many Paddle Kits and Dual Knuckle Post Kits you’ll need.

You may decide to use Brackets on some or all of your Dual Knuckle Posts, particularly if you have a timber fence.
