Re: sliding doors

Does it start to scratch the glass after a while?

Re: sliding doors

It doesn't, the brush is quite soft. Maybe after 15 years, but so far we have no scratches and we already use this for about 7 years.

Good luck with your vivs, James

Re: sliding doors

I'll post pictures again as soon as they're done (complete with brushes)!

Re: sliding doors

Looks like self-adhesive draught excluder (on a roll). Any hardware store, I guess.

Unhappy Re: sliding doors

It would be a big problem if a snake squeezed through the sliding doors!

Re: sliding doors

heres my three slidignglass customs, this is an overall picture, hard to see the glass and the track it sits in, its pretty nifty simly n nevr had a problem

heres a picture of the glass slid open a few inches

heres a close up of the track that the glass sits in u can also see the locks too wich i rarely use, nothing gets outa these maybee baby garters could get outa the vent holes n such but with this style of slidign glass i never had a problem .

Re: sliding doors

It really depends on the design of the setup if the snake can escape. My roommate at the time once lost a Boa Constrictor due to the fact it could squeeze through the overlap of the glass in the middle of the cage. Of course after the second time he escaped, we renamed him Houdini.
