I made the cages myself. I got sick of having to pull the cages off the shelving unit to feed them so I made them with flip fronts and they save space. They have worked out great for my setup I just need to build a custom wood rack or something so I can get the lighting and heat the way I want it.

No it was pretty easy, the top is an aluminum screen and is placed in between a glass sandwich. It's just a pain in the butt to cut the glass for the top but it works good

I use a self oiling glass cutter and just some normal clear window silicone. The way they open in the front does make things som much easier. Feeding is a snap. It's also great because I am limited on space and I couldn't find a cage of the right size to fit on the racks I have. So making them fit worked out great.

here are some links to the glass cutter I used. Fluid needs to be bought also. The silicone is just a standard window glass silicone, you'll need a cauking gun to use it. All in all it's not that expensive to build them they way you want them. Let me know if you got anymore questions.
