Heres a picture of my new ABS & Aluminum cages. Ya i know i know its a bad pictute ill have a few new ones tonight once i get the light installed , it does have a clear door but all the black ABS doesnt show the door is clear lol.
The Frame is Aircraft grade 60/40 aluminum which makes the cages VERY strong and doesnt allow for the weight when stacking them to the ceiling bow/sag and bind the doors .This one is a 24x12x12 and there will be many sizes to come the door is 1/4 lexan and has 2 keyed locks on it aswell heating is flexwatt heat tape .
FeedBack is welcome

I like the aluminum frame design, nice job! Are the ABS panels fitted on the inside and then glued to each other at the seams, or are they removable? Thanks for any info. How soon are you fabricating 36" wide cages?

Hey Mark,
The ABS panels are fitted inside the frame and sealed to the frames & then sealed at the seems .The "pet line cages " are designed to be fixed and not expandable as these cages are only 12" deep.The stackable lines which come in 12" & 18" heights and 24" depths are made with both sides to be removeable for joining cages to each other to create larger cages
,we will also be looking at adding "corner boxes & hide box options that can be used to form right angles with the corner box ,and create Hide boxes with a simple closed end unit that could attach to either end of any of the expandable these would be 24x24x12 or 18" cubes .If you would like please feel free to check out my link to see more on these .

Looks pretty nice. I like the idea of the super-strong aluminum frame. And I'm also glad to see that you're offering an 18-inch height in the 36- and 48-inch models. I like that height. And it's important if you're using radiant heat panels. Once you start using the larger heat panels (like a 12 x 18 heat panel in a 4-foot cage), that height is necessary for proper basking and cool end temps if the cage is in a normal room-temperature environment.
Good luck!
Bill
