if i was closer i would come help 
yuo may need to get a bit violent some times the metal catches i normally put it in a wide space hold the top layer of metal (top of crate) near the join closest to the crate and try giving it a good shake (watch yuor fingers!) if that doesnt work yuo need to check none of the travel clips, handles etc are holding the piece down also sometimes the metal flips a bit inside the clips that secure it togther so i would check all those look right too. hope you get it sorted soon, is the crate a new one? as they can be really stiff (especailly dog health ones :lol: )

try fiddling with the bits of metal that holds the side to the top, sometimes they get twisted and wont budge, you just fiddle and turn them, it might loosen

Mum can not do it either:?
are the twiddly bits stuck or are they moving??

I have to open mine in the middle of the room, away from any walls and sofas. The top and the two longer sides come up in one go then. After that I have to pull up each of the shorter sides individually.
Is there a handle on the roof part?
