MIM Safe Variogate Double - Car Crash Tested Dog Cargo Barrier Gate for SUVs

The MIM Safe Variogate Double is a crash tested dog cargo gate designed to create a safer, more secure travel space in the cargo area of your SUV or wagon. Its adjustable design helps maximize cargo space while keeping dogs contained during everyday travel. For the most secure setup, pair it with the MIM Safe VarioBarrier (sold separately) to create a protected cargo zone for pets, passengers, and gear.

Add the optional VarioGate Center Divider (sold separately) to keep two dogs separated from each other or other items in your cargo area. The VarioGate Center Divider is available in Short or Long adjustable sizes to accommodate a wide variety of vehicles.

How Safe is the Variogate?

The Variogate Double provides comfort and proven safety for your dog as well as the human occupants in your vehicle. This is a fact that is overlooked by other manufacturers of dog transport cages. The Variocage has been tested for front, rear and rollover accidents using SPCT and ISO testing and safety standards as well as ECE Government Automotive Industry Crash Test Standards. It has received a Perfect Track Record of Safety for over a decade.

Installation - No Modification Required

Installing the Variogate is easy and does NOT require modification to your vehicle.  Straps are used to secure the gate to the very back of your vehicle's cargo area, as well as to the deepest part of your cargo area. These can be attached to cargo hooks (if your vehicle has them), seat belt attachments, or other attach points.  Further, the Variogate has adjustable, extending poles that extend from the gate back to the seat behind it adding additional stability.

How the Variogate Works With the VarioBarrier

The Variogate Double is designed to help organize and secure the rear cargo area of your vehicle. When paired with the MIM Safe VarioBarrier, it creates a more complete cargo containment system that helps keep dogs and loose gear in the rear of the vehicle. This combination is ideal for drivers who want more flexibility than a fixed crate while still prioritizing dog car safety.

MIM Variogate Sizing and Dimensions

The Variogate Double is available in adjustable sizes and is designed to fit many SUVs, station wagons, and similar vehicles. Because fit depends on your cargo opening, depth, height, and door angle, customers should review the measuring guide and contact Adeo Pets before ordering for a fit recommendation.

Variogate vs Variocage: which is right for you?

Choose the Variogate if you want a more open and flexible cargo-area setup for dogs and gear. Choose the Variocage if you want a fully enclosed crash tested dog crate. Both are designed for safer dog travel, but they serve different vehicle and lifestyle needs.
