I prefer to use "rails" on my cages, instead of hanging them from above. This is a closeup of the rail guide hardware I use. The carrage bolt (mushroom shaped bolt) is inserted into a 3-4" wide, 37-40" long, 3/4" thick piece of plywood. The two large flat washers on the left end of the bolt are used to grab the cage wire. The plywood allows the cage to be inserted into a hutch like a drawer in a chest of drawers - I'll show that later. Its kind of nice, having a cage that one person can easily insert and remove from the hutch without help. You can even do it with rabbits inside the cage.
