I have been building cages for almost 7 years now and a general rule of thumb i use is 66%-75% of the length of the cage is usually sufficient (i say generally because if you are dealing with arboreal stuff, then measurements change). I use 11" wide tape on any cages taller than 12". Email me if you have any questions and i can shoot you some pics of construction as well as ideas to help make it a smooth transition for you.
