  I am going to have a guy work on a new box for me this week. The size I came up with is 4' across,30'' tall and 30'' deep. It will be a two hole box.
  Also I was going to use 1''x1'' angle for the frame and some 1in flat stock for supports. Am I on the right track?

  Went another route and got 1.5x1.5 angle for the frame and 1x1 angle for the doors and supports today.

   I plan on being able to put two dogs in each hole. 2'x2'6'' seems big enough, right?

One in my yota is 4'6"x2'x2' and is two boxes. I can put two 60-75 pound dogs in one comfortably
