ABOUT US
Tortoise "Shell"ters is a Florida family owned business established in 2024. As animal owners we value the expense, time and hard work that comes with owning animals. That's why we've built a company committed to providing the very best in quality shelters for all types of animals. We are small business and support small business so our supplies come from local suppliers. 

The round shell shape has become our signature on shelters that are 100% welded steel frame, galvanized wire metal panel, and 15 plus year metal sheeting.  
Each type of unit comes with its unique set of features that continuosly evolve based on customer feed back.

Take a look at what we offer and let us know if we can be of service, we offer standard units as well as custom made. We look forward to adding you to our list of  growing customers for whom only the very best will do for their animals.  


Standard Units

Standard Units

Each one of our units are built with steel square tubing, 100% welded at every seam and joint. No nuts or screws are used on the frame to eliminate the possibility of a loose frame. To prevent rusting every frame receives a full two coat paint job using premium Rust-o-leum paints. We use 15+ year galvanized metal roof sheet for the covered areas of the units which is bolted on to the frame with stainless steel screws. Every screw has a rubber washer to protect against leaks and corrosion. Sheet metal edges are covered with a special aluminum grip rubberized trim to protect animals from sharp edges. If the unit includes wire panel, we use galvanized welded wire in the appropriate size and gauge of the animal the unit will be housing. Our most common wire panel is a 2x4" 8 gauge, a 4x4 8 gauge or a 2x2 10 gauge.
