Get to know this unique DIY project

Looking for inspiration for a smart solution to transport your four-legged friend comfortably and safely, while creating storage space in your car? Then take a look at how Michael did it! He combined a dog crate with drawers for the car.

A safe dog crate

Safety for your dog is Michael's top priority. He has created a sturdy dog crate that fits in the trunk of his car. A sturdy frame with mesh panels offers the dog a safe place and provides sufficient ventilation while driving.

Pull-out drawers for extra storage space

What makes this project special are the built-in drawers under the bench. Michael had the sheet material cut to size by TOSIZE.dk and installed it himself. The drawers are ideal for storing dog toys, leashes or even picnic supplies. With convenient handles and smooth sliding mechanisms, these drawers are not only nicely concealed, but also very functional.

For every dog lover

This DIY project is perfect for any dog lover’s vehicle. It not only provides a safe place for your dog, but also an organized space for all the supplies you need on the road. Michael’s personal design shows that custom solutions can be beautifully integrated into a car’s existing interior.

Cost savings and material selection

Doing it yourself means saving costs and the freedom to choose materials that meet personal wishes and requirements. By doing it yourself, you can perfectly adjust the dimensions of the bench and drawers to the space in your car.

The advantage of birch concrete plywood anti-slip

The choice of birch concrete plywood with anti-slip 9 mm for both the dog crate and the drawers has not gone unnoticed. This material is extremely suitable for use in vehicles due to its strength and anti-slip surface, making it very easy to maintain. The dark colour of the wood gives the whole a robust appearance and makes it scratch-resistant.
