ProRep Heater Guard Ex-Large Easy Open 170x170x215mm

The PR Heater Guard Ex-Large Easy Open is a heavy-duty mesh guard designed to sit over heat sources inside a vivarium, creating a physical barrier between your reptile and the element. At 170x170x215mm, this extra-large size accommodates a wide range of heating equipment and is a straightforward, effective way to prevent accidental contact burns in any terrarium setup.

Size and Compatibility

Measuring 170x170x215mm (17x17x21.5cm), this guard is sized to fit over larger heating equipment including heat projectors, ceramic heaters, and heat bulbs. The extra-large footprint means it works with most standard electric heating units used in UK reptile keeping, without restricting heat output.

Easy-Open Design

The hinged or clip-open panel allows direct access to the heat source without removing the entire guard. This makes routine maintenance, bulb changes, and enclosure adjustments straightforward — no need to disturb the whole setup every time you need access.

Construction and Security

Built to withstand the attention of inquisitive reptiles, the guard's sturdy construction resists tampering from within the enclosure. It provides a reliable barrier that stays in place, giving keepers confidence that their animals cannot reach the heat source directly.

A simple, well-made addition to any vivarium running a ceramic or radiant heat source — particularly relevant for larger species or enclosures where animals are active and strong enough to cause concern around exposed heating equipment.
