Is this crate big enough for a large dog?

At about 27 inches long, 18 wide and 22 high, it suits small to medium dogs. Large or strong dogs will likely need a bigger, heavier crate.

Yes. The crate folds flat for storage or travel and sets up without tools.

Can the dog open the door?

Some owners report that determined dogs can work the latches loose. Check the latch after each use, or add a clip for a dog that pushes at doors.

Does it have a floor pan?

Yes, it comes with a plastic base pan that lifts out for cleaning.

Can I use it in the car?

It is not a crash-tested car carrier. Use a purpose-built car crate or harness for travel.

How many doors does it have?

Two: a front door and a side door, so you can place the crate against a wall and still let the dog in.

Our take on the Pet Gear The Other Door Steel Crate

The Other Door Steel Crate is a folding metal dog crate with a plastic base and a second door on the side, so the dog can enter from the front or the side. It rolls on casters and folds flat for storage or travel. The design suits owners who want a crate they can move around the house and position against a wall. Owners report the build feels light for a steel crate, and the 3.1-star average reflects complaints about door latches and the plastic pan.
