what car?

The car list can be viewed here (it is not complete but will give you a good idea of which crate will fit your car).

Makes of car that the dog crates will fit include Audi, BMW, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Citroen, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Isuzu, Jeep, Kia, Land Rover, Lexus, Mazda, Mercedes, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Vauxhall, Peugeot, Saab, Skoda, Subaru, Toyota, Volkswagen (VW) and Volvo. Not all models of car will fit the crate, and sometimes that even changes within the model itself - for example the Kia Sportage 2005 doesn't fit the medium double crate whereas the Sportage 2007 will do!

Detailed below are instructions for measuring your vehicle to check which crate (if any) would fit.

Instructions measuring vehicle for safedog crates:

  • Check to see if your car has a sill in the back by the boot door. If the sill is taller than about 2 centimetres, you might have to put something below the crate, in order for the doors to be able to be opened.
  • The floor in the car should be even for the crate to stand well.
  • Measure the widest point of the luggage boot which is possible to put the crate in. The boot door or between the tyres are usually the narrowest point.
  • Then measure the length of the luggage boot floor. Mind that the boot door might be a little rounded. In that case, measure the shortest point, i.e. not in the middle of the car.
  • The slope of the front and back of the crate is approximately the same as the slope of the backseat. The roof of the crate is about 15 centimetres narrower than the floor.
  • Maximum height is measured from the floor to the lowest point of the opening of the boot.
