The short list
Who each pick suits

- For large breeds that need folding storage: A 48-inch folding metal crate gives a large dog floor space but collapses when you need it out of the way. The BestPet 48 is the clearest large folding choice in this group. See pick 4
- For a crate that looks like furniture: Wooden furniture crates with doors, trays, and storage can sit in a living room without standing out. The HOOBRO furniture crate has a pull-out tray and a 36 to 41 inch length. See pick 7
- For giant breeds: Giant dogs need length above all. The 54-inch Solutions by Midwest model is listed for dogs over 100 lbs, and the 48-inch-plus group includes the longest frames in the pool. See pick 13

How this list was made
This guide covers double door dog crates listed with live prices on the product pages the site tracks. The pool file contained 30 double door crates across metal wire, soft-sided, furniture-style, and heavy-duty designs. From that pool we kept 15 picks that cover the main uses: small puppy crates, folding metal crates, large wire kennels, heavy-duty cages, and furniture-style units. Every pick was chosen on the maker's stated specifications: door count, dog size, length range, frame type, folding, divider, tray, and heavy-duty label. Prices are shown live on the page and are not copied into this text. Nobody at this site has used, tested, or measured these crates; the choices reflect the listed information and the pool data.
Choosing the right one
Measure your dog before you pick a length
Double door crates in this pool are grouped by listed length: under 30 inches, 30 to 35, 36 to 41, 42 to 47, and 48 inches or more. Measure your dog from the nose to the base of the tail and add a little room so the dog can stand up, turn around, and lie down without being cramped. If the crate is for a puppy, a divider can shrink the floor area at first and be removed as the dog grows; a few picks in this list include a divider, and several smaller crates under 30 inches are aimed at early training.
ASPCA's general dog care guidance lists a training crate as part of the basic supplies a dog needs, so the crate should stay a calm, clean space rather than a punishment area.
Front door, side door, or both
Two doors are the defining feature here. A front door is useful when the crate faces into the room, while a side door helps when the crate sits against a wall or in a corner. The second door also gives you a way to reach the dog for feeding, cleaning, or quick exits without moving the whole unit.
Check the listing photos for exact door placement because the pool data only records that each model has a double door; some open on the front and side, and furniture-style crates may use cabinet doors instead.
Metal, soft-sided, and furniture crates
The 30 crates in the pool split into folding metal kennels, soft-sided travel crates, and furniture-style units. Folding metal models collapse for storage and are common in the smaller and medium size groups. Furniture crates add a wood cabinet shell, often with a pull-out tray, shelf, or castors, but they are rarely foldable.
If the crate will move between rooms or into a car, a folding model with a stated collapsible frame is the more portable choice. If it will stay in one place, a furniture crate can double as an end table or cabinet while still giving your dog a den-like space.
Heavy-duty builds and escape-prone dogs
Some dogs try to dig, chew, or push through doors when they are left alone. ASPCA notes that escape attempts in dogs with separation anxiety can be extreme and can cause self-injury around doors and windows. A heavy-duty crate with a stated steel build is worth considering for strong chewers, but the crate is a management tool, not a treatment for separation anxiety.
Watch the dog for the first few times it uses a new crate, and talk to a veterinarian or behavior professional if the dog is destructive, paces, or injures itself while confined.
Dividers and trays
Dividers and trays are the two accessories most likely to change how a crate works day to day. A divider adjusts the usable length while a puppy grows. A removable or pull-out tray makes it easier to clean up accidents without pulling the dog out of the crate.
The pool entries list these details unevenly: some specify a divider, some specify a tray, and several state neither. If you need one of these features, only rely on a model that lists it. After cleaning up after a dog, wash your hands; CDC's healthy pets guidance recommends handwashing after handling pet supplies and waste.
Travel and storage
If the crate will travel, folding is the key feature. Several metal kennels in the pool list a collapsible frame, and soft-sided crates fold as well, though none of the main furniture picks do. For car travel a folding crate can be stored in a trunk; for flights, check the current rules before relying on a crate.
USDA APHIS describes pet travel requirements for moving dogs between states and countries, and CDC rules apply to dogs entering the United States. Start there before planning a trip with a crate.
Questions
What size double door dog crate should I get?
Measure your dog from the nose to the base of the tail and add a few inches. The pool groups crates into under 30 inches, 30 to 35, 36 to 41, 42 to 47, and 48 inches or more. A puppy can start with a smaller crate and use a divider if the model includes one, then move up as it grows.
Why do dog crates have two doors?
Two doors make placement more flexible. You can put the front door facing the room and still reach the dog from the side when the crate stands in a corner. The second door is also convenient for cleaning, feeding, or letting the dog out without moving the crate.
Are double door crates safe for dogs with separation anxiety?
A crate can keep an anxious dog from damaging the home or hurting itself during escape attempts, but it does not treat the anxiety. ASPCA describes extreme escape behaviors and recommends addressing the underlying cause. If your dog shows distress when you leave, talk to a veterinarian or behavior professional before relying on a crate.
What is the difference between a folding wire crate and a furniture crate?
Folding wire crates collapse for storage and travel, and several in this pool are listed with double doors. Furniture crates come in a wood or cabinet-style shell that fits a room's decor. They are usually heavier and not folding, and some include trays, shelves, or castors. Choose based on how often you need to move the crate.
Should I get a double door crate for a giant breed?
Yes, if the crate is long enough. The extra-large entries in this list are in the 48-inch-plus group, and the 54-inch model is specifically listed for dogs over 100 lbs. Measure the space before buying because a 54-inch or 75-inch furniture crate takes up substantial floor area.
Can I use a folding double door crate for travel?
Folding crates are convenient for car trips and storage because they collapse when not in use. Before flying, check the requirements of the airline and the destination, because the U.S. Department of Agriculture and CDC have pet travel and import rules that can affect what is allowed.
