I think all bobcat cages I’ve send gave the straight drop down type door.. whilst all other cage traps have a door that swivels..

makes a shorter cage overall which is less invested to build/ship and also can fit more in a truck.

From experience especially so far this year with the few traps have been able to get out, even against DR's,advice, the swing type doors can get blocked from completely closing if you get a good dump of snow, 14 inches over night, snow half way up door opening. Where the drop down (guillotine type,door stayed fully functional, especially with additional weight added to the top bar.
