To save you the trouble, here’s an exclusive review of the 7 best indestructible dog crates and everything you need to know before buying.

Are there truly indestructible crates?

There are very few truly indestructible dog crates. With a lot of desire, a dog can break through even seemingly thick bars. Here is an example of one:

Such a crate costs between $200 and $300. This isn’t a small amount, and it would be sad if the money was wasted. What’s worse, though, is that the dog can hurt itself trying to escape from the crate.

If you have a very destructive and strong dog, I can only recommend Impact and Zinger products. I have not yet to hear of a dog that could break them. Yes, these crates cost almost $1,000, but all of the cheaper options aren’t completely indestructible.

The other crates on this list (except Impact and Zinger) are only suitable for owners of relatively calm dogs who certainly don’t have the strength to chew iron.

Important caveat: You shouldn't confine a destructive dog for extended periods of time without supervision. Stay nearby and keep an eye on him to make sure the dog can't open the lock, crawl between the bars, bend them, etc.

Best idenstructible Dog Crate

​Impact High Anxiety Crate is specially designed for restless dogs that tend to run out of the crate. It’s made of sturdy but lightweight aluminum. Although it appears bulky, it’s lightweight and can be easily carried by hand.

The crate is closed as much as possible to prevent escape, but at the same time has a lot of holes for ventilation. The bars in the front are very tight so the dog can’t get his teeth or nose in.

And to top it all off, it has a secure lock and 4 additional latches. Only a Houdini could open something like that.

By the way, Impact gives a 10-year warranty against breakage.

ZINGER HEAVY DUTY 3000 CRATE

This crate is made to withstand the harshest conditions. Every detail of this product has been designed to ensure reliability and durability. I’m talking about the wide square bars, reinforced door and incredibly secure lock. The aluminum construction is strong, yet lightweight.

No dog will be able to break such a kennel. It can even be safely transported in the car, because the ZINGER crate can withstand even an accident.

Zinger have one advantage over Impact crates. They offer crates with a door on the front and side (you can choose the option that is best for you). You can also order a crate with two doors. But they only offer a 90-day warranty.

Best Value – AGESISI Heavy Duty Dog Crate

This and the following crates are a more budget-friendly option and are suitable for dogs that don’t exhibit excessive destructive behavior. That is, if your dog can spend hours persistently chewing on metal, this isn’t an option for you.

They’re more suitable for small dogs that may have escaped through the bars of a wire crate, or for dogs that like to scratch.

The Agesisi crate is a very standard and unobtrusive model. But it has many positive reviews, which speaks for its durability.

A plus point of this crate is its rounded corners. This is better because you can bump the right corners when passing.

Idenstructible Furniture-Style Dog Crate

It is the only heavy duty crate with a nice design in my opinion. Because the others look like some kind of animal confinement cell. It’s not embarrassing to put a crate like this in the house, and you can also use it as a table.

Also, I like this model because it’s more enclosed than the classic metal crates. And the idea of rounded corners will appreciate all who, like me, once kicked the corners of furniture.

 If you buy a crate with a lattice bottom, you might need to put a blanket or mattress inside to make it more comfortable.

---

ProSelect Empire Dog Cage

ProSelect Empire Dog Cage popular as a one-of-a-kind heavy-duty crate for medium and large dogs.

It’s made of heavy-duty 20-gage steel and reinforced with ½” diameter steel tubing. This not only prevents your dog from breaking out, but also ensures durability as it’s rust-proof. A heavy-duty door with double latches ensures escape resistance.

I don't like the manufacturers' idea of a lattice floor. It's not comfortable for dogs' paws. That's why you have to put something on the floor. And the bottom trays won't be useful at all.

Best Budgete Heavy Duty Indestructible Dog Crate

Next on our list is this heavy-duty dog kennel from Otaid. If the previous option is too expensive for you, you can find a similar crate at a lower price here. Judging by the description on the seller’s website, it’s made of the same materials.

I like that the crate is equipped with double doors. Also, the bottom of the crate is made of smaller bars set close together. Maybe this is more comfortable for the dog.

PUPZO Heavy Duty Dog Crate with roof

In general, this crate is identical to the previous model in all features. The only difference is the design. Some people will like this design more than the standard rectangular crate.

Buyers Guide – How to Choose Indestructible Dog Crate

Here are some factors you should consider when choosing the right dog crate.

1️⃣Materials

Wooden crates can be easily chewed, while low-quality wire crates can cause injuries to your dog. You should opt for a reinforced steel crate with a sturdy metal frame to give your dog the best protection.

2️⃣Breed and size

If your dog is medium-sized, buying a large dog crate will take up a lot of space and put a strain on your wallet. Also, if there is a lot of space in the crate, the dog may runs up and down anxiously or pees in a vacant corner.

Therefore, before investing in a dog crate, carefully consider the dimensions of your dog-crate and the size of your dog.

3️⃣Locks and latches

Even if a dog crate has an industrial frame material, but with a poorly constructed closure it will be useless. Most premium quality heavy duty dog crates are equipped with advanced, high quality locks.

The best type of latch is one that automatically locks when the door shuts because they have lesser external parts for your dog to get hold of their mouth.

4️⃣Portability

It’s important that you can easily move your dog crate from one place to another. You may need to move it around the room to provide your dog with the ideal shade, or you may want to use it as a travel crate or outdoor playpen.

Therefore, it is better to buy a crate on wheels or with handles for carrying.

5️⃣Easy to clean

When dogs eat in their crate, they often spill food and water, leaving behind a dirty crate floor. For a hygienic and hassle-free dog crate, opt for an easy-to-clean design.

How Dogs Typically Escape Standard Crates

To have a great chance of keeping your dog in his crate, it’s important to know how most dogs escape from kennels. Here are the most common methods dogs use:

• 📌Chewing on connectors and weak spots. Most standard wire dog crates use small metal connectors to properly secure the sides and door of the crate. Many dogs chew on these clearly fragile pieces with their mouths, ripping them off and escaping through the resulting opening.
• 📌Latch manipulation. If your dog uses his brain more than his mouth, he may play around with the latch mechanism until he learns how to open the door. Even if the first few attempts to work on the latch look random and awkward, dogs quickly learn how to open the door with repeated practice.
• 📌Brute force. Most dogs, including the relatively small ones, will use their mass and muscles to twist the bars apart. Dogs often force heads between the metal bars until they bend them enough to fit their bodies through.

If the dog tries to get out of the crate, it may hurt itself. Therefore, don’t leave your pet unattended for long periods of time unless you are sure that the crate is 100% safe.
