If you’re fortunate enough to have multiple dogs in your home, you’ll know that while they may be the best of friends, they still enjoy having their own space to retreat to. A dog crate with a divider offers the perfect balance—allowing each dog to have their own cozy space while still being close to their companion.
Crates with dividers are also a fantastic option for dog owners who are:
- Welcoming a new puppy into the family
- Caring for foster dogs or have regular canine visitors
- Training dogs who may need to be separated at times
Many pet owners start with a standard metal crate with a divider, but soon realise that while functional, it doesn’t always fit well within the home. This is where we come in. At The Pet Carpenter, we help you create beautiful, bespoke pet furniture that is not only practical for your dogs but also seamlessly integrates into your home.
Introducing Dog Crate Furniture with Dividers
When designing a dog crate with divider, there are a few key things to consider:
- How do your dogs like to use their space?
- Do they prefer complete privacy, or do they enjoy being able to see each other?
- Will their needs change over time, requiring flexibility in design?
To help you find the perfect solution, we have developed four crate divider options:
1. The Panel Divider
This creates two completely separate crate spaces with a solid, fixed panel in between.
- Ideal for dogs who prefer complete privacy
- Creates a cozy, den-like feel
- Provides separation for different routines (e.g., feeding or sleeping habits)
2. The Bar Divider
A great alternative to traditional crates, this open-bar divider allows dogs to see each other while maintaining their own defined spaces.
- Keeps the visual connection while maintaining individual sleeping zones
- Ideal for dogs who find comfort in seeing their companion
- Provides a more aesthetic and airy feel than a standard metal crate
3. The Removable Divider
Flexibility is key when designing pet furniture that lasts a lifetime. Our removable dividers can be added to both panel and bar options.
- Securely latched to prevent dogs from moving it
- Easily removed to create a larger shared sleeping space
- Perfect for growing puppies, new arrivals, or flexible crate setups
