» Perfcto Tanks....can You Get "spare Parts?"

Was just wondering as I've found one the size I need, but it needs a bit of help with the lid.

Any info is appreciated.

Hiya!

I read that they are made by underworld, so you could try emailing them, I imagine you would be able to get spare parts!

Good luck!

Thanks - have sent an email. Really want to sort the lid out because other than the corner parts being missing it's a good cage.

When I enquired about a new Perfecto lid it was priced at £18. This was for a 30x12 but it was a couple of years ago.

You could make one much more cheaply

The lid itself is fine, it just needs corner squares..... not sure how I can show you what I mean!

Three "corner squares" are on their way to me. Hopefully I can fix the lid with no real trouble.

Well done - where did you get those from? Always handy to know these things

Yes, please tell, this question is bound to pop up again at some point

The link Rolo gave is the manufacturers - I emailed but got no response so called today and spoke to a really nice lady. (Thanks again, Rolo!)

Thanks - and to you Rolo I've bookmarked that and might see if they will do a lid cheaper than the pet shop

The corner pieces arrived today - the nice lady in question sent me a spare too! So as soon as I pay the outstanding amount I can sort the lid.

The hoop is also missing to lock the tank, but as the corner parts need replacing it should be easy enough to slide the black edging off and attach a loop to the mesh. (Making a small hole in the black edging for the loop to go through.)

Hopefully will have it sorted in the next couple of weeks.....hurray!

That's great The lock is always the first thing to go!! My perfecto's lid was in bits and I managed to stick it all together and fasten it with a bit of - you guessed - sticky back velcro! My gerbils have never been able to get it off!

Show us a picture when it's done.

Good stuff! Nice to know some places are good at providing spare parts when you need them

Never easy is it! Got the tank home only to discover the previous owner had not only lost the corner brackets but snapped the slotting in parts in the frame.....and it seems impossible to remove them.

If anyone else has a perfecto tank I'd be grateful if you'd take a look and see if you can figure out a way to solve the problem! (Without breaking your own lid, of course!)

Can you show me a picture? Not sure which bit you mean - is it the lid that slides in that's broken or the bit attached to the tank where the lid slides in?????

I managed to fix mine with bits from B&Q - it's been working well for over two years and never an escape *Touches Wood*
