vivarium fronts!!!!

Hi,
I'm fairly new to this site - however have found it extremely useful to look at all of your 'hog' set ups for ideas. I am currently (with a lot of help from my dad) building a four tier vivarium for my four little hogs.
I'm still confused about what is best for the doors of my vivarium though - I've been reading your tips re mesh rather than glass, I just wondered if using a normal pet netting (obviously with a small gauge) would be suitable? My mums managed to find the fly screen mesh but it is made of material - I assume that this comes in wire form too! Is this only available on the internet or do diy shops stock it? My local diy store didn't know what I was on about!!!!
Any advice you can give would be great - I have taken a lot of tips re the decoration of my completed vivarium from your piccys!!! lau

I use plastic doors, like the glass ones, but with holes drilled in them, I find they work as well as the mesh, just need cleaning more due to fingerprints all over them lol!

You can see the doors with the holes drilled in them cool
