On this particular aluminum crate we combined the two best features of all the crates we sell; Powder Coated Finish and Full Ventilation.

This powder coated aluminum crate is very durable. The crate has a very hard finish because there is a special coating process that is done in two steps. It is because of the two layers of coating on this crate that the finish is not only very hard but also extremely durable.

We offer one color choice for the powder-coated crates. Grey fleck on black; which is a stunning look.

Below is a close-up of the grey fleck on black

The crates are powder coated on the interior and exterior. Compare this finish to any other powder coat finish crate on the market and you won’t come close to this price.

The Full Ventilation Crate features ventilation on all four sides. This crate was designed with air movement in mind and this is a great feature for those dogs that must remain in their kennel all day.

It is costly to produce a crate of this style because of the time it takes to weld each and every bar; that is why you don't see many aluminum full ventilation crates on the market.

This full ventilation crate comes in 2 different sizes. The smallest, or regular size, measures 36 inches long, 28 inches tall and 24 inches wide. The gap between the bars on the crate is 2.5 inches. Most inside wheel-well measurements in trucks, vans, and SUVs are 48" wide. This way you can fit any two of the small crates we offer in your vehicle side-by-side. The large sized crate measures 42 inches long, 28 inches, 28 inches tall and 32 inches wide.

This crate is Tig Welded.

Why does Leerburg only sale crates made out of aluminum materials and TIG welded?

Aluminum for dog crates and kennels is the perfect material because it is lightweight, strong, does not rust. Best of all does not absorb the suns heat! All of the crates we offer are aluminum welded by the TIG welding process. TIG welding is a very difficult welding to do and is the welding process that we use because it is the strongest aluminum weld. TIG welding is also known as GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding). TIG welding is a high quality welding process that is used when a precision welding process is required. To do TIG welding it requires a special TIG welding machine. Many welders can weld steel but aluminum welding takes many years of experience to master. These crates are constructed by a master welder with 28 years experience.

The top and bottom of the crate are polished solid aluminum diamond plate tread brite that is then powder-coated. The door is made with double layers and it is reinforced. The exterior of the door is also the polished diamond plate tread brite aluminum that is powder-coated. This is a very nice looking crate.

There is a one inch lip/edge around the inside of the bottom of the crate, so if your dog gets sick or has an accident while traveling the liquids are contained inside of the crate. This is much easier to clean up than having to clean out the floor of your truck or SUV.

Each side panel of the crate has two recessed handles which are a great feature. When the handles are not in use they fold down to be flush with the side of the kennel. This feature makes carrying the crate safe because you do not have to put your hands in through the bars to move the crate.

There is a welded bar inside the crate side wall to hang a flat sided pail (sold separately). This prevents the dog from tipping over it's water so easily, therefore having a dry kennel to lie in while traveling or at training.

This crate is solid construction with a stainless steel locking door latch. The door can close and latch without being locked but you do have the option of locking the crate if desired.

Shipping:
Because of the size of the crate, the regular size ships at a 90 pound rate even though it does not weigh 90 pounds. Shipping of this crate is done by UPS and costs $100.00 US Dollars.

For the large (42") and extra large (48") size crates, shipping is $149.00 US Dollars and is shipped by Freight Carrier to the continental US.

The crate comes fully assembeled.

To line the floor of the crates here at Leerburg® Kennels, we use thick rubber mats cut to the size of the crates. They provide a softer surface for the dogs to lay on, and the dogs don't chew on them. You can go to www.buytack.com to find rubber mats.
