Rising Star Crates

Rising Star Crates is a small, owner-operated business in Sacramento, California, established in 2000. It makes custom aluminum dog crates designed to fit a customer’s home, recreational vehicle, van, or other vehicle space. The crates are lightweight and durable, with powder-coated finishes intended to make cleaning and sanitizing easier. Customers can provide measurements or visit the workshop to discuss what will fit; the company notes that it does not build crates for specific vehicle models because vehicle configurations vary.

Products include standard and Mega Air crate designs in a range of sizes, along with options such as custom dimensions, solid or bar tops, different door configurations and swings, mud guards, and RV-specific features. Rising Star Crates also sells exercise-pen gates. Its crates serve dog-show and performance competitors, professional handlers, hunters, kennels, and household dog owners. Orders are made as received, with shipping or customer pickup available; the business does not keep extra inventory. Products carry a five-year warranty, and custom or modified orders have specific cancellation and return restrictions.
