Meet this unique DIY project

Are you looking for inspiration for a smart solution to transport your four-legged friend comfortably and safely, and at the same time create storage space in your car? Then look at how Michael handled this! 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 robust dog crate that fits in the trunk of his car. A sturdy frame with mesh panels offers the dog a safe place and ensures sufficient ventilation while driving. 

Extendable 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.ie and installed it himself. The drawers are ideal for storing dog toys, leashes or even picnic items. With handy handles and smooth sliding mechanisms, these drawers are not only beautifully 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 the dog, but also an organized space for all the supplies you need on the go. Michael's personal design shows that tailor-made solutions can be beautifully integrated into the existing interior of a car.

Cost savings and choice of materials

Getting started yourself means saving costs and the freedom to choose materials that meet personal wishes and requirements. By doing your own DIY, you can perfectly match 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 non-slip surface, making it very easy to maintain. The dark color of the wood gives the whole a robust appearance and makes it scratch-resistant.
