Yeah, the big question is whether you want hinged or sliding glass. Even though it seems like a hinged door is easier, I have come to find that it is much more difficult to frame glass, and get a correctly articulating door, rather than just install runners for glass.

We've built houses with sliding doors and hinged doors and have found that simply screwing the Plexiglas onto the back of a solid board with a cut out "window" affixed to a ful length piano hinge to be simplest.
It also provides no edges or corners for 'nose rubbing' habits.

You may want to keep in mind that heat tape will not heat through wood, and having it in the enclosure is a burn, fire, and electric shock hazard even when enclosed. You can risk it if you want, but the risk is real, as even the littlest imperfection could mean water or urine leaking onto the tape, and having it enclosed can run the risk of it burning too hot due to lack of air flow if not enclosed correctly.

Personally, I prefer overhead head as the main source of heat for my big boas. That would also be simplest way to provide heat for your boa with the set up you have in mind. All you'd need to do is make a heat guard and drill a hole for the wire if you chose a CHE, and screw an RHP in place with a hole for the wire for an RHP.

I use to build with hinged but now everything is sliding doors with the aluminium c channel glass and a jewelers lock. A 4 footer made from HDPE cost exactly 105.48 for all materials from manards 100% water prof and no cure time on sealer

Nope.

Never even heard of them.

Got a Home Depot and Lowes and neither sells that stuff.

We used to have MilMar Plastics which sold sheets of PVC sort of like that, at high prices but they recently went under after 50-some years of business.
