Zinger Heavy Duty Aluminum Dog Crates

Strong and lightweight, Zinger Heavy Duty Aluminum Dog Crates offer incredible strength at one third the weight of steel. Unlike plastic and wire crates which easily crack and bend and need to be frequently replaced, Zinger crates are built to last a lifetime.  If you have a dog that consistently destroys crates, this is the crate for you.

FEATURES OF THE ZINGER HEAVY DUTY ALUMINUM DOG CRATES:

• Proudly made in the USA
• Open air design
• Extra strong build for a solid, heavy duty crate
• Side panels feature 1" x 1" aluminum tubing in .100" thickness
• Top, bottom and back panels are made from .065" aluminum sheet that has been laser cut, formed and welded to exacting specifications
• Lightweight aircraft grade aluminum construction, known for its durability and strength, yet light enough to be handled by one person with little effort
• Aluminum quickly dissipates heat, making it a great material to construct dog crates provided there are enough air holes, which these crates have plenty of
• Easily portable, making them perfect for use in your vehicle, home or business
• Perfect for dogs who often destroy or break out of plastic and wire crates (and no more cracked panels, broken floors or bent wire doors to replace)
• Flush mounted, key lockable stainless steel slam latch and mounting hardware for durability, corrosion resistance and peace of mind that your dog cannot be removed from the crate in your absence - two keys included
• Lock & deadbolt covers included
• Rattle free, spring loaded handles (two on crate top) for easy portability
• Superior ventilation - air passes freely through the open design door, sides and back wall, quickly dissipating heat inside the crate
• Modular design allows multiple crates to be coupled side by side or stacked atop one another to form multiple dog crate systems or kennel banks, making them the perfect choice for trainers, groomers, boarding facilities and K9 owners
• Beautiful and durable “Silver Hammertone” powder coat finish both inside and out:
  • Finish is "baked on" so that it will not wear off
  • By powder coating the inside, it protects your dogs coat from discoloration (untreated aluminum crates oxidize and the residue rubs off onto the dog resulting in dark marks on their coat)
  • This is a bonus for those of you who plan to use these crates for dog shows, grooming competitions, grooming salons or boarding kennels
• Extra heavy, strong door features:
  • Fully vented for good air flow
  • Built of 3/8" aluminum bars inserted through 3/4" x 3/4" aluminum tubing
  • Bars are then double welded for extra strength and security
  • Reinforced with extra and bracing to ensure it stands up to "Houdini" dogs
  • Full length piano hinge and striker plate
  • Can be easily reversed to allow left or right hand opening, depending on how you will place and unload the crate
• 1 year manufacturers warranty for manufacturing defects, excluding metal and paint damage from dog scratching, biting, drooling, urination, etc.
• Mounting holes for optional handles, airline rails and caster wheels are pre-drilled at the factory for easy installation
• Ships knocked down to keep shipping costs low, but requires only 30-60 minutes or less to assemble – requires a Phillips screwdriver and a crescent wrench (not included)
• 2-4 week lead time for delivery
• Canadian shipments are available; email us with your postal code for shipping quotes

OPTIONS AVAILABLE IN OUR SEPARATE LISTINGS INCLUDE:

• Caster Wheels & Brackets: set of four 3” red polyurethane tires that are molded onto a hard rubber hub with brackets that install in pre-drilled holes (you want these if you are going to use this crate in airports or dog shows/competitions). Each tire swivels and locks. Double action braking stops wheel and swivel with one easy movement of the engagement lever. Roller bearings keep the crate moving smoothly. Useful when on inclines and when your hands are full. The heavy duty construction of the corner bracket acts to protect your crate from damage as it makes its way through airports, show rings and rough handling baggage handlers. Universal fit for all sizes of crates. Wheels easily remove when needed (without tools) and the crate and attached brackets sit flat on the floor. Of all available options, this is the handiest!
• Drain Thru Flooring:  ideal for those of you who hunt, do water rescue or enjoy the beach/lake/dock diving with your dog. The mat is made from a rigid rubber compound and its ¾” thickness means dogs will have a hard time bending and chewing it. It raises your dog up off the floor above water/urine to keep your pet dry. The open design allows liquid to pass through to the crate pan and also improves air flow beneath your dog to improve drying time. Bleach can be used to clean and sterilize it as necessary. If you have a dog who chews/paws at mats, you might want to consider the Chew Protector option to safeguard your investment.
• Chew Protector –  protects the corners/sides of the Drain Thru Flooring with an aluminum “frame” in case you have a dog who tends to dig, scratch and paw at the crate floor. It provides a 1” overhang and prevents the mat from being lifted up by your dog. Channels are pre-cut and pre-drilled and use the same hole screws and hole configuration used to assemble the crate, so no drilling is required. To remove it for cleaning, merely pull it up from the middle and bend it out. No need to remove the framework.

Whether you have working dogs, show dogs, sporting dogs or transport dogs for rescue organizations, our Zinger Heavy Duty Aluminum Dog Crates will get them to and from their destinations safely and comfortably. And if it’s storm anxious dogs or destructive dogs in your pack you need to corral safely, this is the crate for them. It will be the last crate you will need to buy and the only crate you will recommend to others.
