Zinger, Professional 3000 Aluminum Dog Crate with Escape Artist Upgrade Package, Front Entry
The 3000-size crates are designed for smaller dog breeds (Such as Australian Shepards, Beagles, and Collies) and stand at 21" W x 24" H x 30" L. We recommend that when measuring your pet and choosing the appropriate size, consider adding a "Comfort" buffer between the dog's actual height and the height of your chosen crate.
The Zinger Professional 3000 comes with 3 rows of ventilation holes along both the top and bottom of its non-door and non-barred sides.
Our FD (Front Door) entry crates feature one door on the front side of the crate, with a standard back panel on the reverse. As with all Zinger doors, each door is completely reversible and can be opened from either the left or the right.
Strong and Lightweight: Zinger aluminum dog crates offer incredible strength at one-third the weight of steel, light enough for one person to lift with ease. Unlike plastic and wire crates lifetime. For security reasons all ZINGER lock and mounting hardware are made from stainless steel to provide exceptional security and eliminate the risk of rust or corrosion.
Lockable Slam Latch: Each door comes with a flush mounted slam latch which is keyed for added security while you are away from the crate. Rest assured that someone cannot simply open the crate and walk away with your dog. Made from strong "stainless steel" for durability and to prevent corrosion.
Ventilation: A Zinger crate is fully vented down each side and along the back wall to provide maximum comfort for your dog. Our open design allows air to pass freely thru the door aided by the triple rows of lower and upper vent holes which surround the crate. By its very nature aluminum quickly dissipates heat making it a great material to construct dog crates provided there are enough air holes. Lots of adequate venting ensures your dog will remain safe while in its crate.
Modular Design: All ZINGER crates can be coupled side by side or stacked atop one another to form multiple dog crate systems or kennel banks.
Beautiful Finish: ZINGER crates are finished in a durable "Silver Hammertone" powder coat both inside and out. The secret to this tough finish is the high temperatures in which it is "baked on" so that it will not wear off. By powder coating the inside as well as the outside of the crate, we protect your dog's coat from discoloration, a common occurrence when a dog sits in an untreated aluminum crate. In untreated crates, the bare aluminum oxidizes and the residue rubs off onto the dog, resulting in a grey silvery color. This will not happen in a Zinger crate.
Solid Doors: Reinforced with solid bars and welded for extra strength the door is built to last. A full-length piano hinge and striker plate are standard and the door can be easily reversed to allow left or right-hand opening.
For field use, the front-entry design supports quick access during field training and transport. The combination of aircraft-grade aluminum and a durable powder coat keeps weight down while resisting rugged field conditions. The 3000 size accommodates smaller breeds such as Australian Shepherds, Beagles, and Collies, with sizing guidance to help ensure proper fit when the dog is active. Ventilation is maintained along the sides and rear to promote airflow during warm days or long holds in field work. Security hardware and the locking mechanism are designed to resist tampering in field environments. The crate's modular design lets operators pair units or stack them as part of a kennel bank, useful for training teams and on-trail field trials. In upland hunting or waterfowl training scenarios, secure transport between field setups is practical. The finish reduces coat discoloration in rough terrain and wet conditions due to the protective powder coat. Care and maintenance are straightforward: wipe with mild soap and water, inspect hinges and latches after exposure to wet conditions, and store with dry hardware to extend life. The 90-day no-escape warranty provides practical assurance for field-use scenarios where strong dogs test containment. Handled as a practical field crate, it supports secure transport and straightforward setup in the field.
