Some people would like to use wooden crates rather than the traditional made with metal. This is probably because the ones made by wood are a lot sturdier and stringer than the ones made by wire metals. They are also less expensive than with the metal ones. You can also use it as storage for your home items after the dog has outgrown his pen or crate.
If you want to have a wooden create for your pet, you first need to know how to build a wooden dog crate. It is better for you to know this instead of buying the whole crate from pet stores.
Below are the steps on how to build a wooden dog crate:
1. Determine the size of the crate. This will depend on the size of your dog. If your dog is still a puppy, then you will just need the smaller one. Measure the size of thedog and have a few extra inches for the crate. This will leave the pen have a place for the dog's foods and toys. Make sure that your dog will not feel like a prisoner inside. Give him enough space to move around and play with his toys inside the crate.
2. Cut the woods according to the size that you measured. You can use ply wood with this. If your measurements are 24 by 32 inches, then make it into 25 .5 .5 inches by 33. Again, this will give your do have an extra space in the pen. Also, you have some areas to place the nails. The extra inches will become a place for the nails to be hammered.
3. Measure the ends of the wood pieces. Use that measurement to cut the pine boards to add strength and support to the crate. The pieces you will cut needs to be flush with theedges.
4. After that, you can start attaching the boards and the end pieces together. Nail the plywood through the pine and then into the plywood for about one for each four inches gap from the center.
5. Using a measuring device, measure the spaces between the pine boards with the side pieces. The pieces should fit perfectly so if you need a second measurement for this, then we recommend that you take a second attempt.
6. Now, you can attach the base of the crate with the end pieces. If you need extra help for this, you might want to ask some assistance from a friend. You will need someone to hold the crate while you are attaching the bas of it. Nail into the plywood and around the pine boards.
7. Attach the back and front pieces.
8. Flip the pen over foryou to secure the corners and see if they are properly attached. Nail the pen for every three inches.
9. After that, you can attach the hinges for the doors of the crate. Again, make sure that the door will be wide enough for your dog to come in and out of the crate.
Those are the steps on how to build a wooden dog crate. Once it is finished, you can begin training your pet how to use it.
