I am building 2 large (6x2x2') cages for my indigo snakes, that will have a pull down door in the front (rather than sliding door like my other cages). I'd like to show to photo of what I want to the guy who is helping me build the cage - does anyone have a pic to share of a cage design with a fold down cage door in front (hinges on bottom, handle on top) ? Thanks much.

Here's plans and pictures for building a cage with that type of door: www.arbreptiles.com/cages/4x2.shtml

with large indigos and a peice of plexi that is 6 feet long I would not do it that way. The plexi glass is too flexible. I would use glass, or if you do go with plexi you should fram it with some wood.

My kingsnake cages are 31 inches long and even that 1/4 plexi glass bends out enough to make me nervous when the push on the middle.

here's a shot of my tegu's cage doors. The cage is 80"x32"x32".
