Reptile EnclosuresBuilt once. Built right.

Exhibit quality, built for home. Here's what goes into every Toad Ranch enclosure, and what we refuse to cut.

Take a closer look

Exhibit quality, part by part.

We built this exhibit for a school. Hover or tap the markers to see what goes into every Toad Ranch build.

Toad Ranch school exhibit enclosures with mahogany woodgrain HDPE frames, glass doors, side viewing windows, metal badges and matching cabinet stands
1 · The front frame

The backbone of our design.

Every frame is assembled by the one craftsman whose whole job is frames. Finished edges, a fully supported door opening, and a glass track mounted true before it ever meets the enclosure.

It's 3/4" solid HDPE. Not foamed, not composite, not veneer, not painted. The good stuff: colored all the way through, UV stable and rigid. Not to mention gorgeous. Available in 7 colors. Order samples today

2 · The glass doors

Tempered glass, polished all the way around.

Sliding doors of 1/4" tempered safety glass, certified to CPSC Category II, the highest safety glazing rating there is. Every edge is polished for a smooth glide and a smooth touch.

The doors ride in a dedicated, mounted glass track with a side track, so when they're closed there's no glass edge for an animal to pry open. Several lock options to choose from, and door fit is checked before every enclosure ships.

3 · Custom cutouts

Custom cuts, from paludariums to burrows.

Cutouts in the lower frame make the substrate part of the show, like the viewing window on this exhibit. We cut custom openings for everything from paludariums to burrows.

4 · The body panels

Reptile-safe plastics, made in the USA.

Standard body panels are 1/2" PVC in white or black. Upgrade your side panels to our Executive Upgrade, pictured here, with 3/4" HDPE that matches your front frame. Every panel is designed and cut for your build, and all of our plastics are reptile safe and made in the USA.

5 · Side viewing windows

A habitat you can see from every angle.

Side windows are cut to line up with the front frame and come in quality, USA-made cast acrylic. Choose the Executive Upgrade and we can fit them with tempered glass instead.

6 · The canopy hood

Finish out your display.

Going with a screen top? Finish out your display and conceal your fixtures with a canopy hood. Choose sliding aluminum doors, like the ones pictured here with the exhibit's signage applied over them, or hinged upswing Executive doors. Shop canopy hoods

7 · The stand

A stand for every setup.

We offer a full line of stands: cabinet stands with sliding doors (pictured here) or soft-close swing doors, pedestal stands, or open storage.

Our stands aren't just for show, either. They're built with internal supports to hold the heaviest setups. A naturalistic habitat with hardscape? No problem. Shop stands

The materials

American-made. Designed for your build.

Every Toad Ranch enclosure starts with American-made PVC and HDPE, held to standards cheap import sheet never sees.

From there, nothing comes off a shelf. We design every build and write its cut files from scratch, panel by panel, for your enclosure and nobody else's.

The frame

Every frame gets its own craftsman.

One builder whose whole job is frames assembles each one by hand, mounts the glass track, checks it square, and sets the final piece: our die-struck metal Toad Ranch badge.

That badge is our maker's mark. If it's on the frame, we stand behind everything about it. Every badge is a promise.

Before it leaves our shop

Built, checked, then packed by hand.

Every enclosure is fully assembled and checked in our shop, then taken down and hand-packed for the trip. Here's what that means for you.

USA-made, reptile-safe plastics

Quality American-made HDPE and PVC construction, reptile safe and built for the heat and humidity your animal lives in.

3/4" solid HDPE frames

Built by hand by our frame craftsman, with the glass track mounted and our metal badge set on every one.

Assembled before it ships

Every enclosure is fully built in our shop and checked for fit, finish and easy reassembly in your home.

Under 1% damage claims

Hand-packed for the trip, with custom pallets built in our shop so even giant builds arrive safe. And if you ever run into an issue, we're here for you tomorrow and 10 years from now.

Cabinet stands with sliding or soft-close swing doors, pedestal stands or open storage, and canopy hoods with sliding aluminum or upswing Executive doors.

Buy it once

A few years from now, nobody's thinking about what they saved.

Materials cost more than they used to. We refused to swap them for cheaper ones or cut corners on design or build quality, because nobody wants to haul a failed enclosure to the curb and pay for another one.

That's why zoos, aquariums, museums and nature centers in 34 states build their exhibits on Toad Ranch. Exhibit quality, built for home.
