Do Volvo dog guards fit both petrol and electric models like the EX30 and EX40?
Yes, our guards are vehicle-specific to each Volvo model regardless of powertrain. An EX40 guard fits all EX40 variants, whether petrol, diesel or electric, because the body structure remains identical across powertrains. Select your exact model and year to guarantee fitment.
Will a V60 dog guard fit a V90, or do I need a different guard for each Volvo estate?
You need a different guard for each model. The V60 and V90 have completely different body dimensions and mounting points, so guards aren't interchangeable. Each Travall guard is engineered for one specific Volvo model and series to ensure proper fitment and safety performance.
How does the boot divider attach to a Volvo dog guard?
The Travall boot divider clips directly onto the vertical bars of your Travall dog guard without tools. It slides up and down to adjust your boot space, letting you separate dogs from luggage or create a smaller area for shopping. The divider only works with Travall guards, not other brands.
Can I fit a dog guard in a Volvo with a panoramic sunroof?
Yes, Travall guards accommodate panoramic sunroofs fitted to models like the V60, V90 and XC60. The guard mounts to the vehicle body, not the roof structure, so sunroof presence doesn't affect fitment. Our design accounts for all factory-fitted features on your specific Volvo.
Do Volvo dog guards require drilling or permanent modifications?
No drilling required. Travall guards use existing mounting points and pressure-fit into your Volvo's body structure, securing with adjustable telescopic bars. Installation takes 10-15 minutes with no tools beyond what's included, and removal is just as quick if you sell the vehicle or need full boot access.
Are Travall dog guards tested for safety in Volvo vehicles?
Travall dog guards are tested to UN ECE R126 standard on a type approval basis, meaning one guard per design undergoes impact testing. If it passes, all guards made with the same design, materials and manufacturing process are considered compliant. This testing simulates collision forces to verify the guard restrains dogs and cargo effectively.
Will a dog guard fit a seven-seat Volvo XC90 or EX90 with the third row up?
Guards for seven-seat Volvos mount behind the second row of seats, not the third row. If you need to use all seven seats, the guard will be positioned further forward, reducing boot space. Most customers with seven-seaters install the guard behind row two and fold the third row when carrying dogs.
Can I add a tailgate to my Volvo dog guard after purchasing?
Yes, the Travall tailgate attaches to the boot divider, which clips onto your dog guard. You can buy the tailgate separately later, but you'll need the divider fitted first as the tailgate doesn't attach directly to the guard. Many customers start with a guard-only setup and add components as needed.
