No, those are just separators, not shelves. Look for Closetmaid stuff in your area.

That's the stuff. Hardware stores here carry it, as well as home improvement stores.

Yes. But you can usually buy just the shelves, not the whole set.

Will you be able to buy these and ship to you?

No, that's a closet organizer. You just want the plain shelves.

Perfect

2 wire closet shelves: 12x96 inches. Cost $16 each
- 1 wire closet shelf for the lid. 20×144 inches. Cost $50
- 1 sheet of 4'×8' coroplast. Turned into cage base and 1 "kitchen ". Cost $20
- End caps for the shelving. $5 a package, I needed 3.
- White duct tape, krazy glue and zip ties. Ended up costing $10ish dollars

Are you asking about the closet shelves or the ebay link I posted?
Have you seen this page? https://www.guineapigcages.com/howtometric.htm
You'll only need one box of grids to build a cage, if the cage will be on the floor.

You've got the list of what you need, right there.

All of the shelving I see on those ebay links are the from the US, so shipping would kill you. Contact these people and ask them where in NI you can find their shelving products: https://www.closetmaid.co.uk/

Yes, one set is enough. Unless you want to build a stand from the same grids, you'll need more.

The coroplast will probably be called correx where you are. Or ask for corrugated plastic.
