Description
Aluminium Slimline Dog Bed – Designed for Crates & Kennels!
The Kuranda dog beds are designed to prevent dogs from getting a direct bite on the bed fabric. All frame edges are joined tightly, and fabric edges are hidden in between the bed frame, this restrains dogs from chewing at visible edges. The 40oz vinyl fabric is non-breathable making it free of claw and teeth catching holes. The off-the-floor design provides circulation underneath the bed during summer and lifts dogs off the cold hard floors during winter.
Benefits
- Chew Proof – with a 1 year chew proof warranty.
- The cuboid frame can reduce chewing as the shape can be uncomfortable in a dog’s mouth.
- Suitable for crates, and kennels, the 15.8cm legs provide a comfortable standing space for dogs inside a crate.
- The fabric edges are hidden inside the frame, making them inaccessible to dogs.
- Completely sealed, non-breathable fabrics free of claw and teeth-catching holes.
- Easy to clean, guaranteed to stand up to repeated cleaning and high-pressure hosing.
- UV resistant and protected in a wide range of environments – can be used indoors and outdoors.
- Anodised aluminium corners come in matte black and are uniquely designed by Kuranda to protect the underlying aluminium – providing strong protection against disinfectants, superior durability and abrasion resistance.
- Provides comfortable orthopaedic support, important for a dog’s joints, muscles, health, and well-being.
Features
- Additional lowered legs can be purchased separately to change the bed height to 13.1cm
- Lightweight and aircraft-grade aluminium frame, corners, and legs.
- Slim 2.5cm wide cuboid frame and legs
- Internal rubber leg caps protect the leg base and flooring.
- Satin-finished aluminium frame with matte black corners to suit a wide range of fabric colours.
- Strong non-flexible US hardware able to support heavy dogs, and self-threading screws incorporated for long-term stable leg support.
- Manufactured in the USA with reliable high-quality parts.
- All bed parts are individually replaceable for a cost-effective bed long-term.
- Available in sizes M-XL.
- Holds up to 80kg.
NOTE: Not recommended for dogs with large or wide mouths that are heavy chewers. A heavy chewing dog with these features could angle its mouth to fit around the slim frame, then gain access to the fabric with its teeth. We recommend the All-Aluminium frame for dogs with these features.

Unsure of the size your dog needs?
How to measure:
- Ensure your dog is well relaxed and all limbs are spread out.
- Measure your dog from nose to tail base for length.
- Measure your dog from top of back to bottom of paws for width.
- Add 10cm to your dog’s measurements – this gives your dog space to comfortably stretch within the bed frame.
- Compare the measurements to the bed INTERNAL dimensions.
Tip:Â When in doubt, order the next size up. Your dog will thank you.
Fabrics
Kuranda fabrics are completely sealed and non-breathable, making them waterproof and free of teeth or claw-catching holes. Breathable fabrics are not chew proof as they have holes that catch on teeth and claws.
Heavy Duty 40oz Vinyl
- Our strongest fabric – for destructive dogs and businesses.
- The 40oz vinyl fabric is made of vinyl-coated polyester with a smooth surface and has superior abrasion resistance and tear strength.
- A non-breathable finish, free of teeth and claw-catching holes.
- The same material used for rigid truck and trailer traps, and SUV covers.
- Does not sweat in heat, retain body heat, or warm in heated environments.
- The smooth coating is easy to brush, hose, or wipe down and does not harbour dirt and allergens from dogs’ fur or paws – best for dogs with inhalant allergies.
- Holds up to 114kg.
- Available for all Kuranda bed sizes.
- Fabric edges are wrapped tightly around a rod, then the seams are welded and heat-treated in place.
- The Kuranda 40oz vinyl fabric has been tested and compared against lower 20oz fabrics on the market and produces a higher performance. Fabrics under 40oz showed low tear strength and over-flex creating weakness and sag over time.
- Our Vinyl fabrics are 1356gsm (grams per square metre). The higher a fabric’s GSM, the thicker and more hard-wearing it is, e.g. Denim has a higher GSM than silk. Other vinyl dog bed fabrics only go as high as 900gsm.
- NOTE: Placing soft bedding, blankets, or bed pads on top of the vinyl may cause condensation between the vinyl and the soft bed topper. This is particularly shown in states that show dramatic temperature drops and depend on the outdoor temperature compared to indoors (mainly experienced in Victoria). If this applies to you, we highly recommend you use the Ballistic Nylon fabric.
Ballistic Nylon
- Ballistic Nylon is a tough high-denier, tightly bound fabric with great tension and abrasion resistance.
- A non-breathable finish, free of teeth and claw-catching holes.
- This canvas-like material is used for military body armour. It is also commonly used in work wear, luggage bags, hiking gear, and duffel bags.
- Best for dogs with sensitive skin, particularly dogs with contact dermatitis.
Does not sweat in heat, retain body heat, or warm in heated environments.- Senior dogs may prefer this fabric as it is softer and provides better traction than vinyl.
- Holds up to 45kg.
- Available in sizes up to XL.
- NOTE: Noise from a dog’s claws can be noisy against the ballistic nylon. Adding a Kuranda dog bed cover will reduce the sound.
Outdoor Mesh
- Perfect for the outdoors.
- The Outdoor Mesh (Textilene) fabric is a water-repellant open weave that allows pets to stay cool and dry.
- Allows water to pass through and is breathable, similar to outdoor furniture fabric.
- Does not sweat in heat, retain body heat, or warm in heated environments.
- Designed for outdoor use, Textilene fabric is UV-resistant and withstands exposure to the elements without fading or deteriorating.
- The fabric does not absorb odors, moisture, or stains, helping to maintain a fresh and clean bed for your pet.
- Holds up to 45kg.
- Available for Kuranda bed sizes up to XL.
- NOTE: Due to the open weave design, it is more vulnerable to dogs who may dig excessively or who may be more destructive. It is NOT covered under our 1 Year Chew Proof Warranty. For more destructive dogs, we recommend the 40oz Vinyl.

Bed Care
- For a basic clean, you can wipe the bed down with a damp cloth.
- For a proper clean, use mild warm soapy water and hose down with your average garden hose or pressure hose.
- To dry you can wipe them down or leave them upright to dry.
- The fabrics are non-absorbent and will dry as soon as you wipe them down.
- Aluminium beds must be rinsed after a disinfectant is applied. If not rinsed the water in the disinfectant solution evaporates leaving a high concentration of chemicals on the aluminium which will cause corrosion.
- PLEASE NOTE:
- Harsh chemicals and bleach solutions are not recommended on all Kuranda products.
- Using bleach, bore water, water with high salt or chlorine levels and locations with high salt levels in the air will cause the aluminium beds to break down/corrode.
- Using bleach and chloride solutions will cause discolouration of fabrics.
Warranty
- We guarantee the structural integrity of each of our beds for a period of one year from the original date of purchase of the bed.
- If a dog is able to damage any part of the frame or fabric beyond usability by chewing, we will send you replacement parts free of charge.
- Cosmetic damage and any damage caused by persistent scratching/digging is not covered under the 1 year Chew Proof Warranty.
- Warranty claims are limited to one free replacement per part per bed.
- A photo will be required to submit a warranty claim. All photos and claims need to be sent to info@therian.com.au – there is no need to send the damaged product back to us; the photo(s) will be sufficient.

- Replacement fabrics and parts that are purchased separately

My pups were so small when I first got them this bed, which is still in perfect condition 3 years later!

Hunter has 3 Kuranda beds, one in his crate in the lounge, one in the laundry for overnight, and one outside. I literally tried every type of bed before getting these and he destroyed them all within a day. He hasn’t made a dent in any of these, I only wish I discovered them sooner!

We love Kuranda beds for our GSDs! We have had them for nearly 2 years and not one has been destroyed or needed to have anything replaced! Highly recommended

Surviving a staffy cross and a labrador that have eaten everything else in the house! With one old dog who needed a bed and a young pup who eats everything I took a chance and got two Kuranda dog beds. Pleased to say they are the only thing in our house that are Trevor-proof, and the old girl Charlie has a comfy spot to rest. Would recommend to anyone!

My girls love their bed!

Thank you for an amazing bed!!! It’s easy to clean and digging/chew proof from Achilles!!!
He is also loving his new crate bed. I phoned up for some help with purchasing and they were extremely helpful, pleasant and easy to talk to. I added crate legs which will give Achilles more height when he’s all grown up.

As a boutique boarding kennel we want to offer our guest the best in quality and comfort but also durable and designed to handle the many different breeds and temperaments we encounter and hands down the Aluminium Slimline Bed is worth every dollar as it’s an investment.
