MidWest Homes for Pets 42-Inch Dog Crate Cover, Black Polyester with Adjustable Flaps

MidWest Homes for Pets Large Dog Crate Cover is a black, 100% polyester cover designed to create a more private, den-like space for most 42-inch wire crates, with lift-up side flaps for adjustable visibility and airflow.

• Made for most standard 42-inch crates — covers the kennel to give your dog a more private resting area.
• 100% lightweight polyester — provides crate coverage while allowing airflow.
• Side flaps lift and secure on top — adjust visibility and ventilation as needed.
• Hook-and-loop tabs on the flaps — help hold the cover in place around the crate.
• Machine washable and dryer friendly — makes routine cleaning straightforward.

A wire crate can feel exposed when a dog is resting or settling in. This cover adds privacy and a more enclosed, den-like atmosphere for dogs that benefit from a defined resting space. MidWest Homes for Pets says the covered environment can help reduce anxious behaviors such as barking and chewing; individual responses can vary.

Which crates does this cover fit?

It is designed for most standard 42-inch metal dog crates, including several MidWest and New World models. The cover measures 42L x 27.25W x 30H inches (106.68 x 69.215 x 76.2 cm). A separate sizing specification gives an approximate width of 28 inches (71.12 cm), so measure the crate’s outside dimensions and compare them with the cover before choosing.

• Named iCrate and Life Stages models: 1542, 1542DD, 1642 and 1642DD; also specified as 1542U, 1542DDU, 1642U and 1642DDU.
• Named New World models: B42 and B42DD.
• For other manufacturers’ crates, use the exterior measurements to confirm fit.
• MidWest Homes for Pets offers this cover in four other sizes.

How do the flaps work with different crate doors?

The cover works with single-, double- and triple-door crates, but it does not accommodate crates with a top door. Each side can be raised and placed on top of the crate to change how much of the kennel is open, adjusting visibility and ventilation for your dog.

• Hook-and-loop tabs attach at the side flaps.
• Adjust the side openings by raising or lowering the flaps.
• The design allows airflow through the covered crate.

How do I install and clean the cover?

No tools are needed to put the cover on the crate. The cover is machine washable and dryer friendly, making it suitable for regular laundering as part of crate-area care.

• Made from 100% polyester.
• Black color.
• Lightweight fabric construction.
