As many of you know, I recently had these awesome cages built for my blue tongue skink and bearded dragon! Ever since I showed these cages i've had a lot of people request a video on how to built them, so here it is!
The cages shown in this video are perfect for animals like bearded dragons, blue tongue skinks and other medium sized lizards. With a few small modifications, they can be used for many other animals such as snakes!
Supplies used:
4x8, 1/2” melamine sheet, cut into these sizes:
- 48”x24” (top panel)
- 48”x24” (bottom panel)
- 24”x23” (side panel)
- 24”23” (side panel)
- 47”x4” (front, bottom piece)
- 47”x2” (front, top piece)
- 18”x2” (front, side piece)
- 18”x1.5” (front, side piece)
- 18”x1.5” (front, middle piece)
2x4, 1/8” melamine sheet (back panel)
Ikea komplement glass shelf (door)
Ikea komplement glass shelf (door)
2 silver door knobs
2 cabinet latches

This is amazing! Thank you so much to you and your dad for sharing this with us! We’ve been having trouble finding a video that gives us the exact dimensions and everything. But I do have a question I hope you can answer.. if I were to house a bearded dragon or ball python in this how would I go about using a heat mat on the bottom? Especially if I wanted to stack them like this.

Hello all! Emma’s dad here... thank you for the many compliments! Just a quick update to this, I found that the small vertical pieces on the front (where the door hinges attach) and the center piece (where they latch) weren’t really sturdy enough for my liking the way I attached them originally, so I attached an extra piece of the same width, but the full length of the space inside from top to bottom (approx 23 inches) directly to the back of each vertical piece. This way I was able to screw that extra piece into the top and bottom horizontal pieces for extra stability, and then also put in a few screws into the original piece now in front of it, so the center piece especially that was “toe-nailed” in the video is much stronger now. In simpler terms all the vertical bracing pieces have all been “doubled”, but again since the extra piece was attached in the inside, it can be several inches longer and attached at the very top and bottom. Much more stable now. Thanks for watching Emma’s vids! ☺️

@@dreadfulsin4243 Thanks! I'd say the whole thing came together for less than $225, including all the hardware such as hinges, door handles etc. It was a bit cheaper than it could have been since she wanted 3 of them built, so rather than buying pre-cut 4x2 pieces I bought full 4x8 sheets and had them cut into quarters, so that saved about $50 in total.

Your dads explanation of the edges lining up and all the adjustments you need to consider with the wood thickness were amazing! I’ve watched a few of these videos and his emphasis in the beginning were sooo helpful! Saved me so much time and work where I definitely would’ve been thrown off by not taking all that into consideration.

I did something very similar to this! I used the same melamine shelf for the bottom but only did a frame of maple 1x2s and used metal screen to cover the sides because I never have temp issus in my room and it has the added benefit of my bearded dragon being able to use the sides for extra climbing space!

I was planning on one large door with hinges at the bottom and a latch at the top until I found your video. I think double doors are a much better way to go. There's even a size of those ikea shelves that will fit on the dresser I just thrifted! So thank you for this information it's going to make a big difference in my project. Yall are great
