Hey guys, I'm getting acrylic to make sliding doors for my new enclosure, I'm wondering if they'll need wheels or not. Size is 29"x19" (1/4" thick) anyone know if they move ok without wheels?

Re: Sliding doors
Never used the acrylic because it had too much flex for my liking, but they dont need wheels to slide. you just need a good track for it to sit in.Comment

Re: Sliding doors
When I re-purposed a cabinet & added sliding doors for a snake to occupy, I was using glass (heavier than acrylic) and found some narrow self-adhesive stuff (kinda like thick velvet) that I put in the tracks to smooth
the action of the doors. It worked well. You probably won't need to do that anyway, for acrylic...but just giving another idea besides 'wheels' -in case.Comment
