ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Attach the Storage Compartment Lid on 
the 27” carrier. (These are pre-attached on 
the 32” and 36” carriers.) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
Set the Carrier Bottom on a flat surface 
and attach the Assembly Buckles. The  
Yellow Hinges will snap into place on the 
spaces provided on the Carrier Bottom; 
keep the Assembly Buckle and Yellow 
Hinge in a “V” formation while attaching 
for easiest application. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
Place the Carrier Top on the Carrier   
Bottom. Before locking the Buckles,    
attach the Door by placing the bottom 
door prong into the hole on the left side  
of the Carrier Bottom. Lift up on the  
Carrier Top to insert the top door prong 
into the Carrier Top. Lower the Carrier Top 
so it rests on the Carrier Bottom, then  
secure them together by locking  
the Assembly Buckles.

CARRIER OPTIONS: 
 
Many airlines require travel carriers to be  
secured with metal screws or bolts for checked pet  
carriers. To secure your Skudo for airline travel, use the 
Barrel Nuts and Screws provided. There are two holes in 
the back of the Skudo and two in the front on either side 
of the door. Please note that the holes on the sides of the 
carrier are not to be used the with metal hardware; these 
are for use with optional plastic zip ties (sold separately). 
To install the metal hardware, place a washer over the 
screw and push it up through the hole in the bottom half 
of the Skudo. When the screw is exposed on the top half, 
place a second washer over the screw and secure it with 
the Barrel Nut. Always check with your air carrier prior to 
booking to ensure you are following your airline’s  
specific travel requirements.
