Well you have hinges, door locks and polycarbonate windows, you tell me! I'm not taking it all to bits to prove +£400 is alot for less than 10kg weight saving in total :lol:

Now if they were ~ £350 on ebay id be tempted :lol:

Thats a bit strange as my door was 18kg stripped , no hinges or fittings and the innerskin out.
Only the impact bar was still in. That must be heavy!

Think Jen's tampered with Phil's scales.

... She's only fooling herself!

The impact bar was the majority of the weight tbh, I was initially disappointed when I stripped the door but when I took the bar out, wow, that made a difference. I haven't a clue what it was made from but it swallowed a disc each time I cut it all the way through :shock:

I think is worth every Penny !
I have fitted doors now with lexan and they weigh alot.
Really need to compensate for the heavy cage!
