Default Stackable cages?

So I need to upgrade 2 of my hammies cages. Nel and Cinnybum both are in cages that are too small so I want to upgrade them but i want to be able to stack them on or under Nibblers hamster heaven. The only problem is I want them to have an easy accessible door at the front although this isn't important because i can just move them off of each other. I did ideally want 2 zoozone 2 cages but obviously stacking them on top of each other would cause them to not have any ventilation.
Anyway does anyone have any suggestions?

You could stack ZZ2s, I was thinking about this before, if you were about to get two wooden stakes (or something thick) and then place the second ZZ on top of those, causing a gap of about 3/4inches between them? And if they were against a wall, stability wouldn't be a problem... What do we think? (I was contemplating this idea for if I get a new hamster in Sept/Oct).

ETA: Why not just 2 more HHs?

The wilkinson rat cage is similar to the imac criceti 16, which is very easy to stack
Although if your looking for a nice big door, the savic micker XL would be a good option x

i was thinking of stacking cages.the only thing id be worried about is the weight of the cage on top bending the top of the cage underneath.the cage could cave in slightly because these cages can be quiet heavy.im looking for decent shelving or a shelving unit that would take the weight of these big cages.i think bin cages are best for stacking because there lighter.
