AP T 10 lock

So I can't use a traditional glass case lock since the support in middle is too big. Who here has a T 10 and what do you do for a lock?

Re: AP T 10 lock

Do you really need a lock? Who's in your home that might open the door, kids?

My doors for my one 6x2x2 are really heavy and the tracks are not on bearings so there's no way my 7ft rat snake is opening the doors. I do use a jam, a piece of folded cardboard, but that only to keep the glass from rattling as I walk by.

Re: AP T 10 lock

You got the glass doors? Not sure if they come w "holes" pre-drilled, but the acrylic doors should. You can buy integrated locks from AP and install yourself. I bought my cages (T3s) without them initially, and used carpenter shims to wedge the doors tight, but decided aesthetically, the locks look better, and are much more secure. This may be an option for your T10s

Bent paper clip actually works very well, and is nearly invisible.
