**NEW** Python Portal Frame Sections

from $8.00

PYTHON PORTAL FRAME SECTIONS

Python Portal Frame pieces with sliding glass track pre-installed. These are the foundation for your DIY tub conversion project that will allow you to convert many types of inexpensive storage tubs/bins into fantastic enclosures for your animals. If you are a little handy and want a project that can save you some serious caging cash then this is the right product for you.

Simply determine what lengths you need for your tub to make a complete frame. Pick a side of your tub/bin that has a flat surface without bumps or ridges that would get in the way of mounting the frame. measure the LxH of the open area of this side and pick frame sections that will construct a frame that will fit within this space.

Remember, you will need the Python Portal Corner Brackets and possibly the Middle Joiners to finish your DIY project. So don’t forget to add those to your cart as well!

Key Features:

  • Made from Solid White PVC that has sliding glass track pre-installed. They are designed to accommodate 1/8” glass that you source from your local glass supplier. We do it this way to avoid breakage during shipping, and also the glass is usually much cheaper when you just buy it locally.

  • These can be painted by you to match the color of the corner, and joiner brackets, and also to better match your box if you use something with color. Simply use a plastic safe spray paint such as Krylon Fusion and allow to dry/cure fully before using with your animals.

  • Can be ordered with white or black sliding glass track.

  • You can easily cut the pieces to the exact lengths you need with a miter saw or hand saw with a miter box. The material is very easy to cut.

  • If you are just slightly handy you can create stackable enclosures that have the following features:

    - Plastic enclosures hold heat very well compared to all glass. Plus they are a fraction of the weight of PVC or glass enclosures.
    - Unlike cages assembled from PVC these have built in rounded corners (easy cleaning) and are waterproof.
    - Plastic boxes are extremely inexpensive. if you break or damage one you can easily and cheaply replace them.
    - Most all storage boxes are designed to stack on one another. No need for a rack system!
    - By mounting the frame on a side you now have front and top access to the enclosures.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE ORDERING:

What you get when you order:

  • Comes in pairs. For example: If you order one section of 24” you will get two rails at 24”. One is the deep track and the other will be the shallow corresponding track. They are sold this way to ensure you have the necessary pieces to allow the sliding glass to work properly.

  • Also note that all items are made to order.  Typically most items will be completed and shipped within 7 to 14 days after ordering (usually less than that).  If there is a considerable amount in the queue we will let you know the approximate wait time.

    Not dishwasher safe.  The high heat in a dishwasher will warp the plastic.
