I hate sliding glass for larger animals. Not secure enough IMO. Right now I am having a dilemma with a melamine cage in which the track on one side has become ajar. I cannot silicone it back in place because I cannot move the snake out of it (she is believed to be gravid), so instead I have to massacre the front of the cage to secure a piece of wood so she doesnt realize she can push out
As for the extra space in a cage, in my experiences with boas housed in larger cages (4 - 8 foot boas in 6x2x2 cages), they really didn't make any use of the additional space, which is why I feel housing them in "minimum" space is adequate.

Exactly. You can also get everything pre-cut so all that needs to be done is assembly.
