housing dilemma

all of my animals are currently adequately housed except for one and I've been chewing on this problem for a while
thankfully he's not in great discomfort, but I need to make some sort of decision and get on with it
it's Drache, my PI king
I want to give him a 6'x2'x2' enclosure
when we moved in, I popped my 4'x2' lizard cages on this quickly cobbled together thing and now I'm ready to tackle this corner



these are the issues:
Henner needs to be able to get in and out of his cage on his own and I'm not sure he could figure out a ramp, so he probably needs to stay on the bottom
if I put the largest cage on top, it needs to be lighter than a glass tank would be - particularly one with sliding doors, which it would also have to have
wood would also be too heavy
it would really have to be acrylic
but I don't like most of the acrylics I've seen
granite really wouldn't go with my wood floors
also - they're pricey
any suggestions?
