- Unscrew bolts and nuts: Using your screwdriver or adjustable wrench, loosen the bolts and nuts that hold together the frame of the dog crate. Be careful not to drop any screws into hard-to-reach places as you unscrew them.
- Separate panels: Once all screws have been removed, separate the panels that make up the frame of the dog crate by gently pulling them apart from each other until they are completely separated
- Remove mesh coverings: Use your pliers or hands to carefully remove any covers attached to parts of the cage, such as windows or doors, making sure not to tear them in the process if possible for later reuse if desired.
- Disassemble remaining components: After all mesh covers have been removed from their respective frames/panels, use either your screwdriver or adjustment wrench (depending on the fastener type) to disassemble whatever additional components remain on the shelf, such as hinges, locks, etc.
