Foldable Single-Door Dog Crate with Tray
This dog crate is built with a single front door and a removable base tray, offering a straightforward, secure enclosure for a pet at home or while travelling. The foldable body allows the crate to be stored flat when not in use, making it convenient for those with limited space or for occasional use such as visiting friends or attending training classes. The wire construction provides good visibility and ventilation, while the tray catches any spills and can be wiped clean quickly.
- Suitable for: Designed for small to medium dog breeds weighing up to approximately 12 kg, including dogs such as Cocker Spaniels, Beagles, and French Bulldogs. The interior space is appropriate for one dog to stand, turn around, and lie down comfortably. It can also serve as a safe space for a puppy during house training or for a cat that needs a temporary enclosure, provided the bar spacing is checked to prevent escape.
- Ideal scenarios: Use as a permanent den in a living room, a training tool for housebreaking, or a travel crate for car journeys and overnight stays. The single door keeps the structure simple and sturdy, and the fold‑flat feature means the crate can be tucked behind furniture when not needed. The tray makes the crate suitable for a dog that may have accidents or spill water inside.
Material: The frame is made from coated steel wire, with a black or silver finish that resists rust and corrosion under normal indoor use. The tray is a durable, easy‑to‑clean plastic, typically polypropylene, which slides into the base. The door latch is a simple sliding bolt mechanism, and plastic handle or feet may be present on some models.
Structure and features: The crate is assembled by unfolding the panels and securing the top and sides with sliding latches or spring‑loaded clips — no tools are required. The single front door opens fully for easy access. The plastic tray can be removed for cleaning. The foldable design means the crate can be transported or stored in a bag or car boot. The wire structure allows airflow from all sides, helping to keep the dog comfortable.
Care and maintenance: The wire panels can be wiped with a damp cloth and dried. The tray can be washed with mild soap and water, or hosed down, then dried before replacing. Check the door latch and hinges periodically to ensure they remain secure. If used outdoors temporarily, be aware that direct exposure to rain can cause rust over time.
Packaging: The crate arrives folded with the tray stored inside. Packing straps and a plastic bag protect the surface. Unfolding and setting up takes only a minute. No assembly tools are required.
Important notes: This is a single‑door crate with one tray. It is intended for use with a dog that is comfortable with crate training; never force a pet inside. Ensure the bar spacing is appropriate for your individual dog — very small puppies may be able to squeeze through. A brief airing after unpacking is recommended. The tray is not designed to hold fluids for an extended period; clean spills promptly.
