I know what you mean about confusing and I hope this doesn't get even more confusing. The top and bottom are attached to the side of the sides, which makes a box. The back is surrounded by the top, bottom and sides. The front is then attached. Basically, the top is on the back and into the side of the front. If you notice there is a center piece in the front to support the top. I hope this makes sense.

There is no frame inside the cage and no screws holding it together. We us a plate joiner (biscuit cutter) and biscuits with polyurathane glue (the only thing we have found that sticks to melamine) to hold it together. You have to understand, we also have a woodworking business. We have a full blown shop out back which makes building cages and racks a whole lot easier.

The doors do drop down and we use cam locks to hold the closed, so they are all behind lock and key. All our bigger snakes are in these cages. It keeps our 12 year old son and us from forgeting our two person rule.

Hope it wasn't too confusing,

Randy
