Pre-fab runs?

Hi- posting this question because all the threads I find are several years old.

We have a solid coop and want to find a pre-made run. We know that mesh is the way to go and have tons of predators around so need the enclosure to be super tight. we have 8 chickens so need at least 80 sq feet. Does anyone have recommendations for good prefab runs?
 
Welcome!
Chainlink dog kennels are one option. They aren't roofed, and won't keep weasels or rats out, but are better than no run at all. With electric fencing running outside, it increases safety, discouraging climbing critters, and adding netting over the top will keep out raptors.
For really good safety, it would take having a run built in the yard.
