Large dog crate KEEPER with a steel frame and cupboard
Every dog owner knows the picture: bowls pushed out of place, food on the floor, toys underfoot and — the one that stings — tooth marks on the chair legs. The KEEPER is a chest with a bed built into it, which is a different proposition from a cage pushed into a corner.
Is a crate confinement?
No, and the distinction matters. A crate is a piece of furniture with a sleeping place built into it. Bedding that carries your dog’s own scent and a favourite toy are the signals that tell an animal it is home — somewhere it can safely fall asleep after too much going on.
Even a thoroughly well-adjusted dog benefits from having that. The private space is not a response to a problem; it is a normal requirement.
What is in the piece?
- The enclosure — square-section steel bars finished in black paint with the appropriate health certification, and a door with a bolt for the occasions when you need it closed.
- A timber top.
- A closed cupboard with two shelves for toys, grooming kit and everything else.
What are the sizes?
- Size L — 141 x 60 x 76 cm externally, dog area 97 x 56 x 74 cm.
- Size XL — 159 x 78 x 84 cm externally, dog area 115 x 74 x 82 cm.
- Size XXL — 177 x 87 x 94 cm externally, dog area 133 x 83 x 92 cm.
Our guide to dog crates for large dogs covers how to measure.
Where should it stand?
The room is your choice — living room, bedroom or hallway all work — but decide by your dog’s needs rather than the floor plan. The crate has to be reachable at all times, and it should not sit where household noise will interrupt sleep. A corner with a view of the room but out of the main traffic is usually the answer.
Industrial, and why it works here
Grained timber against black metal is the loft vocabulary, taken from the 1950s and 60s habit of converting abandoned industrial buildings into flats. The minimalism and plainness of the frame sit well against exposed brick or concrete; wide-board flooring and large factory-style windows complete it.
Finishes are on our available colours page.
Complete the look
The KEEPER shares its frame with the SHALTER dog crate with shelves, which trades the cupboard for two open shelves, and the HARBOR modern dog crate. A matching food chest sits well beside it — see the GALLANT dog food storage cabinet. All nine models are in wooden dog crates.
