It is hinged at the corners with removable pins and along two sides so that they can be brought up and hinged together to make the sides taller for when the pups get bigger. Its low enough so that momma can get in and out and than if needed I lift her out when the sides are up but by that time we have started the weaning process. | Very nice. I wish mine were hinged but with mine when not in use I just put them on their side and use them as shelf.
I like to put the whelping box at one end of a x-pen then I drape a sheet over the top of the x-pen to give the momma privacy and to cut out any breeze.
