i dunno if anyone has tried to measure their pushing force or how u would coax a BP to do one at it's max strength, but it is a good question. i would love to know!

but questions on your build: the door would not be hinged at all (so it can be removed completely)? and only attached via hook and lock? my concern would be the security of the hook and how much bend and give it would have. are u opposed to just using 2 cam locks/thumb locks? maybe more depending on the length of the door. these are standard hardware for AP's, Boaphiles, RBI's and other cages.
