Exo Terra Screen Cover for Hinged Door

This cover is BEEFY, and should easily support the weight of, for instance, a curious cat or a medium-sized lizard who is suspending himself from it upside-down because hes bad. The mesh is thick enough that I have no concerns about my animals punching/pulling holes into it with their claws, though I imagine a mid-sized to large dog could. A human would have to use tools to break the mesh itself, but bending the frame or breaking the mesh off the frame would both be very doable. I bought this for an old 40 gallon breeder tank. As the other reviewed have mentioned, is is not a tight fit, but entirely adequate for most animals. Other reviews show it works great for fuzzy pocket pets, like hamsters and rats. If using this product with clips, I would say you can safely keep any medium-bodied lizard or thick bodied snake in their tank with this product. It would not hold anoles or long-tailed lizards due to gaps near the hinges, and I would not personally use it for corns or other slim-bodied rat snakes, but it would easily hold a bearded dragon, uromastyx, or adult ball python (probably would work for young boas, too, but I have not worked with boas much personally). A think a hatchling ball python could escape, however, and I would probably only use this cover for adult BPs, definitely above 1000g (note that some males never attain that size). As a disclaimer, if you are looking at this product, consider if a 40 gallon is really best for you and your animal. Of the ones I mentioned, most will do better in a larger enclosure. While smaller BDs may thrive in a 40 gallon breeder, many require larger enclosures. Most BPs would do well in a 40 gallon, but it is very dependent on your individual animal.

I really like this lid for my turtle’s tank. His water and food dishes are more easily accessible because of the hinge being in the middle. This lid is quite sturdy as my three chonky cats like to sit on top of his tank and watch their turtle brother. The lid arrived more quickly than I expected. Great product!

Fits well

fits my 40 gal breeder tank that houses my aquatic yellow-bellied turtle

Perfect fit and works very well!

Have 3 Cats who like to sit on top of the turtle enclosure. The old screen broke quickly and repairs were not feasible. I bought this, and it holds tight! Fits easily on top. Opens on either side for easy feeding/cleaning. Best of all it holds the cats! My cats are about 10 lbs each, but I have seen 2 of them up there at a time, with no tears or breaks yet! (I hope I did not just jinx it). Great product for my Red Slider and Cats!!!

Really sturdy. Exactly what I was looking for my bearded dragons cage.

Good design and fit perfectly but There was a small tare on the screen :( its not worth returning because it works but looks ugly now

Heavy Duty. Makes it super easy to get into the tank. These are not easy to find so if you need it, go ahead and get it.

the lid fit on my 36x18 cage, but since it came so DENTED UP it wont stay on top.
