Hi Dave,
The panels are square and flat and fit together. Like playing cards. The
kennel is outdoors in a large yard. If I slope the entire slab ( I may)
then the panels will follow the tilt of the slab.......Like a shoe box on an
out of level floor.
Anyway, kennel owners say to slope 6"........
The door would be out of rack also.......
There is no curb....
Thanks for your thoughts.
