where are you guys getting those doors from the plastic crates? i've seen a few picture of homemade dog boxes and the builder used wire doors from plastic crates, can you just buy the doors some where? from where?

I had my uncle help me cut them out with a plasma cutter at his work.

Call Mike at IKennel in Utah at 801-808-4719. They are $10-$15 dollars depending on size.

If your going to have them built like in the picture shown. I recomend to have the air holes cut in a circle. A dog can get a pad caught on the slits like that. Even if they are buffed smooth they can find a way. I put 5, 2 inch holes just like you was looking at a 5 on a dice. Also I recomend that you bend the doors on the ends. Allows for you to use a inside hinge and gives it much more streght
