I only use racks at this time but when I did use larger caging, I preferred hinged doors with the hinge mounted on the bottom side. This way the door opens downward and does not have to be held up. Most important, it gives me a much larger opening to reach into and pull a larger snake out of. It also makes it easier to remove and replace newspaper or whatever substrate your using. Sliding doors only open up to half the size of the opening at max and that CAN make it harder to reach a snake that really does not want to come out.
Just my opinion from my past experience.
