If you would
like to see a PDF file of the complete car list then please CLICK
HERE (it is not complete but will give you a good idea of which
crate will fit your car). This list has been produced in good faith,
and whilst we can guarantee that our crates will fit the car models
which we have fitted personally, you should ensure that the crate
is the correct size for your car before purchasing.
We will also
be producing separate pages for each car manufacturer, to include
sizes which will fit your car, information about how long the crate
can be adjusted to (where we have this information) and pictures
of the crates which will fit your car (where possible with dogs
in situ to give you a better picture. We have started with a few
here:
Makes of car
that the dog crates will fit include Audi, BMW, Cadillac, Chevrolet,
Chrysler, Citroen, Fiat, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Isuzu, Jeep, Kia,
Land Rover, Lexus, Mazda, Mercedes, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot,
Saab, Skoda, Subaru, Toyota, Vauxhall, 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!
If you wish
to buy a crate we would be happy to go to a local dealership to
measure your chosen car if it's not on the list. That's easy with
new cars - not so easy with older models. However we can do a check
on local second hand cars if they're available to view.
Detailed below
are instructions for measuring your vehicle to check which crate
(if any) would fit.
Instructions
measuring vehicle for safedog crates:
- Measure in
metric (we've included approximate imperial measurements as many
of us still think in 'old money')
- 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 wheel arches 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.
