Look fine to me. My only concern would be the lids. You'd have to come up with a wat to keep them shut. They dont look particulary secure?
EDIT: Heat Mats - I would say it depends on the air flow below them. If there is some i'd say outside. But im not 100% about that... |

I've got one of these and a smaller one that i use for feeding in or putting snakes in while i am cleaning out. They are quite good quality, had i seen them and known you could house snakes in them prior to getting my hatchi i would have got them instead of buying a starter set with a faun. I've drilled air holes with mine, the only prob is the handles but you could easily secure with a hole drilled through each handle and a bolt or padlock. |

for plastic rubs i keep the mat outside but it must be stated or else the mat can get too hot and it has been known for an over hot mat to melt the plastic |

I use these for my GALS and they are excellent. Really clear so you can see in easily. Lid would need securing though not just each end near the handles but along the long edges as well. I think some people use curtain hooks. Small hole drilled through the lid and edge of box and hook pushed through and twisted over. |
