Zinger Winger Deluxe 3500 Front Side Entry
Upgrade your pet’s safety and comfort with the Zinger Winger Deluxe 3500 Front Side Entry crate—engineered for pet owners who demand top-tier security, premium materials, and user-friendly design. Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in Zinger’s signature powder-coated style, the DX3500-2-FS crate offers the perfect blend of strength and portability. Ideal for smaller dog breeds like Shetland Sheepdogs, Bulldogs, Spaniels, and Australian Cattle Dogs, this crate provides the resilience and peace of mind that traditional plastic and wire crates can’t match.
As part of Zinger’s lightest crate line—the Deluxe Series—the 3500 model is designed for those who frequently move or transport their crate but won’t settle for anything less than the best in quality. With dual door access and customizable entry direction, this crate is made for active lifestyles and changing environments.
Key Features:
Aluminum Strength, Lightweight Feel:
Constructed from aircraft-grade aluminum, the Deluxe 3500 offers the strength of steel at only a third of the weight. This makes the crate easy to handle, transport, or reposition—even by a single person. It’s a long-lasting, corrosion-resistant solution perfect for indoor use, travel, or as a mobile kennel for dog shows, sporting events, or professional training.
Dual Entry Design (Front + Side):
The FS (Front Side Entry) configuration includes two reversible doors—one on the front (short side) and one on the long side—making it ideal for flexible placement in your home, vehicle, or kennel setup. The side door is available in either a centered or offset version, and both doors can be configured to open from the left or right, depending on your needs.
Keyed Slam-Latch Door System:
For added security, each door features a flush-mounted stainless steel slam-latch that locks with a key. Whether you're transporting your dog or leaving them unattended for short periods, this keyed entry ensures unauthorized access is impossible and offers peace of mind when you’re away.
Ventilation Designed for Comfort:
The DX3500-2-FS features three rows of strategically placed ventilation holes along the top and bottom of each non-door, non-barred side. Combined with full venting on the back panel and airflow through the mesh-bar doors, this design allows for maximum air circulation. The natural thermal properties of aluminum help dissipate heat quickly, keeping your dog cool and comfortable in any environment.
Durable Powder-Coated Finish:
Finished in Zinger’s distinctive Silver Hammertone powder coating, the crate is protected both inside and out. This baked-on coating resists scratches, corrosion, and discoloration, and prevents the oxidation that can rub off on your pet’s coat—an issue commonly found in untreated aluminum crates. This smooth, sealed finish helps keep your dog’s fur clean and your crate looking new over time.
Laser Cut, Welded Door Construction:
The front and side doors are precision laser-cut from .125” thick aluminum sheet and reinforced with solid aluminum bars.
Modular and Stackable:
All Zinger crates, including the Deluxe 3500, feature a modular design that allows for secure stacking or side-by-side coupling. Perfect for kennels, training centers, or multi-dog households, this feature enables efficient use of space and easy crate management.
