Special Order Pricing:
We can create your specially painted Masterpiece for an additional commissioned work fee. A design rendering fee will be required prior to building your commissioned work. Your approval of the rendered design and price will be required before work begins. Work begins when we receive your payment. We may deduct 50% of your payment to begin the work and charge the balance (50%) at time of shipment. Completion time and shipment is between 8 to 10 weeks. We will strive to complete your Masterpiece as soon as possible. Shipping information is the same as stated for our standard items. We will retain all rights to any designs and future use of these designs.
Product Features:
♦ Sand Castles are hand-painted with safe acrylics in a variety of motifs and designs. The inside of the cabinets are painted in semi-gloss finish to help with cleaning.
♦ The litter box and walking tray pull out on an easy rolling drawer for regular cleaning. The cabinet itself is constructed of heavy materials that prevent the cabinet from tipping when the drawer is open. The drawer is set high enough above the floor to clear the height of most carpeting.
♦ The walking tray makes it easy to collect litter dragged from the litter box. The litter box is strategically placed at a right angle to the tray so that cats cannot leap directly out of the litter box onto the floor. The tray is covered with a non-slip foam runner attached with Velcro which traps litter beneath it. The cover can easily be removed, cleaned and replaced.
♦ The convenient storage area in the roof has enough room to house most containers of cat litter. The space can also be used to store many other items your cat needs that you would normally have to store elsewhere.
♦ The ventilation system and the drawer area do not share air space, so odors do not seep into the storage area.
♦ Changing the air filter is easy. Simply pull it out the old filter located above the walking tray and replace it with a new one. Since only 50% of the filter is used each time, thrifty owners can rotate the filter 180 degrees and still have the same filtering power and doubling filter life. Filters are a standard 12” X 12” X 1” size that are readily available in various qualities from the most expensive allergen filters to low cost filters, depending on your needs.
♦ The storage lid is secured with a high quality piano hinge. The up and down movement is safety managed by specially designed gas spring pistons. The lid opens automatically after a slight lifting of the handle. Closing the lid requires a positive downward motion until it is within a few degrees of closing. The lid then makes a soft closing, preventing pets and small hands from getting hurt.
♦ Access to the air chamber is easily reached from inside the storage area. Sliding open a small door, there is plenty of space to place various types of air fresheners, which augment the filtered air leaving the chamber.
♦ The base of the cabinet is set into an ABS tray to prevent damage to the bottom corners, to shield it from dampness, and to protect most types of home flooring.
