Hi everyone,

I'm thinking of trying to add some doors to my c&c cage to make it easier to clean and pick up the pigs (I have my cage on a table and it has a large loft, which is great for the pigs but makes it hard to clean!)

I've seen these and wondered if they might work:

Had anyone ever tried this?!
 
i have doors on my pigs cage atm i just use normal C&C grids and instead of clipping them into the plastic clips and loosely cable tie one side and then use a bull dog clip to hold it shut.
 
This is something I'm trying at moment gone done the tie wrap and clip route but interested in others ideas etc... What do you mean by hinge clips @GloriousGuineaGirl? Sounds interesting :)

@Rodentopia The are a B shaped tough plastic which you clip to the side of a c&c grid and snap the other side in and then they can be used like a door :) makes a hinge to swing a grid in or out once a cage has been built. :) Unlike in the video above you dont have the hassle of having to unclip the grid from the connecters! :)
 
@Briony_S I was given them by the guy who supplied my c&c I have around 20 of them so if you want some after a pic I am more than happy to send you some. I never used them as instead of building up for my boys I made a 3x2 with a 1x2 loft each so they are just laying around You need only 2 of them top and bottom to make a hinged door with 2 grids :)
 
That would be fantast ic! I am more than happy to pay you for them! I'm having to rethink my setup as "guineapig towers" is too hard to clean out being L shaped so I am going to make a 6x2 4 story cage and need to make opening doors.

I don't want any money hun, they didn't cost me anything. They are small and the postage will be next to nothing if you don't mind paying the odd pence via paypal. Lol. I will post pic tomo after work and we can go from there :)
