Why Buy a Zinger Deluxe Crate? Heavy-Duty Aluminum Construction with Stainless Steel Hardware Zinger crates are constructed from aircraft-grade aluminum, prized for its durability and strength, while still being lightweight. Zinger Aluminum crates are ideal for dogs prone to destroying or breaking free of cheaper plastic and wire crates, which tend to easily crack, bend, and break. In addition, the lock and mounting hardware are made from corrosion and rust-resistant industrial-grade stainless steel. Airline & Military Approved with Airline Travel Kit (IATA LAR CR-82 Compliant) ZINGER crates were engineered to exceed the strength and ventilation requirements by most airlines. The Airline Travel Kit is pre-installed and complies with IATA LAR CR-82 rules to allow transportation of ALL dog breeds by air. The strong aluminum design will not bust or be broken by rough handling or shifting cargo loads and protects your dog while flying. Airline Travel Kit comes with every Zinger Deluxe Airline Compliant Dog Crate but is also sold separately if you already have a nonairline compliant Zinger Crate. Each kit includes air travel rails, carrying handles, inLive Animalin labels, water and food bowls, ID Tag plus lock and deadbolt covers for extra security. What is the IATA 82 Standard? IATA stands for inInternational Air Transport Associationin. This organization has compiled a checklist of crate requirements that are referred to as the IATA 82 standard. Most airlines require animals to be shipped in a crate that is inIATA 82in approved. This essentially means the crate must adhere to a certain level of strength and safety before it can be used to ship an animal by air. All ZINGER crates exceed the requirements of the IATA 82 standard when our optional Airline Travel Kitin is attached. Our aluminum crates will not bust or be broken by rough handling or shifting cargo loads thereby safeguarding your dog on route. When you ship your dog in a Zinger crate he is protected. Important: Depending on the dog breed an airline may demand special requirements in addition to the IATA 82 standard so make sure to check with your airline. One of the most important considerations to remember when selecting your crate is its SIZE. Your crate must be large enough to ensure that the dog can stand up and have sufficient space to turn around. It must be able to do so without difficulty. Airlines have the right to refuse to fly your dog if the crate is deemed to be too small so be prepared and know your obligations before you arrive at the airport. Safe & Comfortable A Zinger crate is fully vented down each side and along the back wall to provide maximum comfort for your dog. The open design allows air to pass freely through the door aided by the triple rows of lower and upper vent holes that surround the crate. By its very nature aluminum quickly dissipates heat making it an ideal material for a dog crate. Lots of adequate ventilation ensures your dog will remain safe and comfortable while in the Zinger crate. Versatile & Easy to Handle All Zinger crates have a modular design and can be coupled side by side or stacked atop one another to form multiple dog crate systems or kennel banks. Also, while built to be strong and secure, Zinger crates are one third the weight of steel and can easily be handled by one person, with little effort. Exquisite Powder Coat 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 it protects your dogfts coat from discoloration. Coat discoloration is common when a dog sits in an untreated aluminum crate. 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. Secure Inside and Out From the inside, the crate is strengthened with solid bars and welded for extra strength the door is built to hold your Escape Artist. A full-length piano hinge and striker plate is standard and the door can be easily reversed to allow for left and right-hand opening. From the outside, 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. Backdoor Option All models can be fitted with a second door for front and rear access to your dog. This option comes in handy if you transport your dog in a minivan or SUV.
