Cleaning Drop down doors? How?

[Rach84]

So I am just planning to extend out my 3 boys split cage an add a pig for my line boy. But I'd have to out it up against a wall so wouldn't be able to get round the whole cage for cleaning so I thought if I could have the fronts flip down I could pull the coroplast out maybe? Spot cleaning is fine as atm my 3 boys are in a 3x3 an I can reach over fine to sweep but I don't think I could quite reach to tuck the fleece over the coroplast at the far end. I hope this all makes sense?! Lol xx

I have drop down doors on all of my cages. All I do is ziptie the heck out of the door to the stand and each grid to itself.

Maybe visually it'll make more sense lol

Might be a silly question but how do you get your doors to stay up? Lol xx

I use binder clips to clip them in place! One on each side

Oh cool! An that holds it steady enough? Xx I have them already round the outside to stop the naughty boys burrowing under the fleece!

I haven't had a problem with them! I use them on all four of my cages, 2 per cage except for my cuy mix cage because they like standing on the door and they are so heavy that I use 4 clips just in case haha
