Sliding Glass Door Ideas

boa4ever Jan 11, 2007 01:40 AM

I want to build a Box(cage) for my baby boas when they get bigger and need to figure out how I will make the opening. I thought about just makeing a typical hinged lid with a screen and glass flued to the front. But the thought of stacking cages makes me want to make a sliding glass door on the front.

In fact the ideal setup would be to somehoe make the upper lip of the glass sliding tack a little higher, this way I would be able to remove the glass doors in and out if I were to move it.

========= QUESTION =============

Can anyone direct me to a webpage that caryies the tracks I am looking for? I dont have many fancy tools(like a dado blade) so I cant cut grooves into the wood.

Both of teh suppliers listed below carry the plastic tracks and upper guides you are inquiring about:

www.knapeandvogt.com/home.htm

www.usplastic.com/catalog/default.asp

Also, some Home Depot and a few other hardware stores carry such as well...

Good luck,

Jeff
