FAQs

What material is the Heavy Duty Deluxe Dog Crate made from?

The crate is constructed from 100% pet-safe galvanised metal, featuring a stylish champagne gold finish. The floor tray is also made of black metal.

Is assembly required for this crate?

No, the crate comes ready assembled in a folded position. Simply unfold the panels and secure the latches to set it up. No tools are needed.

How do I determine the correct size crate for my dog?

Refer to the compatibility section in this guide or the product size chart, which recommends specific sizes for various dog breeds. Your dog should be able to stand up, turn around, and lie down comfortably inside the crate.

Can this crate be used for travel?

Yes, the crate is designed to fold flat, making it convenient for easy storage and transport. It also features a moveable carrying handle for portability.

Are a crate cover, cushion, or bed included with the purchase?

No, the Heavy Duty Deluxe Dog Crate does not include accessories like covers, cushions, or bumpers. These can be purchased separately to enhance your dog's comfort.

How do I clean the crate?

The crate features a removable metal tray that can be easily wiped clean with pet-safe disinfectant or soap and water. The metal frame can be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild pet-safe cleaner.

Troubleshooting

Crate feels unstable or wobbly after setup.

Ensure all side panels are fully extended and securely latched into place. Double-check that the top and bottom panels are properly aligned and interlocked with the side walls to create a rigid structure.

Door latch is stiff or difficult to operate.

Apply a small amount of pet-safe lubricant (e.g., mineral oil or cooking oil) to the latch mechanism. Work the latch a few times to distribute the lubricant. Ensure the door is properly aligned within its frame before attempting to latch.

Removable tray doesn't slide in smoothly.

Check for any debris or obstructions in the tray runners or on the tray itself. Ensure the tray is inserted squarely and not at an angle. Sometimes, gently wiggling it while sliding can help it settle into place.

Dog resists entering or settling in the crate.

This is often a behavioral issue, not a product defect. Introduce the crate positively with treats and toys. Never use the crate for punishment. Start with short periods and gradually increase the time, always making it a comfortable and positive experience. Consider adding a cozy bed, blanket, and toys.
