ProRep Heater Guard Standard Round Easy Open | Reptile Vivarium

The PR Heater Guard Standard Round Easy Open is a robust steel enclosure guard designed to sit over spot lamps or small ceramic heaters inside a vivarium, preventing reptiles from making direct contact with hot surfaces. It is an essential piece of kit for any keeper using exposed heat sources in a wooden or glass enclosure.

Construction and Design

Built from powder-coated steel, this guard is lightweight without sacrificing strength. The powder coating provides a clean, durable finish that holds up to the heat and humidity typical of a vivarium environment. The round profile maximises light and heat penetration through the mesh, so output from your lamp or ceramic heater is not unnecessarily restricted.

Easy Access Without Removal

A hinged panel with double security fasteners allows you to open the guard and access the lamp directly, without unclipping or removing the entire fixture. This makes bulb changes quicker and safer, particularly useful when the guard is mounted flush to the roof of the enclosure.

Vivarium Mounting

• Four mounting brackets for secure, stable fixing
• Built-in cable entry cut-out for clean, flush installation against the vivarium roof
• Designed specifically for use in wooden vivaria

Dimensions

The guard measures 12cm in diameter with a height of 15cm, making it suited to standard spot lamps and small ceramic heaters used in typical vivarium setups.

A straightforward, well-made guard that removes one of the most common welfare risks in a heated vivarium — giving you confidence that your animal cannot reach a burning surface, while keeping day-to-day maintenance hassle-free.
