I take the grids away to clean the guinea pigs out each day. I need to find a way to stop them falling off the table but still have them removable. Any ideas?

Atm they are held in place with half bricks and cable ties.

I do the same thing. The ones that I remove are all cable tied top and bottom to each other but not to the first perminant grid. I also use the connectors though which keeps it all much more stable and just pop the removable grids out off the connectors when I’m cleaning out. Please excuse state of cage - it is clean out day!

Ah thank you Guineapig feet and Flutterby. I dont use connectors as they are sooooooo stiff to get on. May try them again as they seem to help with holding the grids upright.

Love the wooden edge beading flutterby.

Both your set ups look great.

Going to buy some white connectors. They do seem quite pricey. I used some from shoe rack style grids and they were an utter nightmare to get onto my grids.

Hopefully the grendle ones will be easier!

I love the "piggy palace" sign, do you mind me asking where you got it from?
 
Does anyone know if the grendle connectors fit the grids better than shoe rack connectors do?
