hi

iv searched but couldn't find what im after.


iv nearly fitted my cage but was wondering if i need to drill a hole in each hole on the joining bars of the cage. (door bars, harness bar, roof diagonal).

so there would be 2 bolts at each end of the joining bars. or would one bolt at each end be ok?


thanks
josh

guessing its a sleeved type door bar from safety devices, your drilling through the outter sleeve throught he doorbar.

Yes you need to drill all 4 holes in each sleeve, be 2 bolts holding the sleeve to the main cage and 2 bolts holding the sleeve to the door bar... and 4 further holes on the other end of the bar, there are 4 holes for a reason
