Absolutely~
Here's the trick:
Get a model similar to "All Glass" that has the wide 1" tall rim. Buy the four paws METAL lids, not the plastic ones.

Buy four of the clamps that are 3 inches wide and made like a "7" not the ones shaped like a "C"

You have to take a butter knife and bend the clips so they are tight.
Now, cut a piece of pegboard that fits perfectly down into the inside rim of the tank.
pegboard goes in lip, metal screen lid goes over the pegboard, one clip in each corner.
I've never had any snake escape from these and I'll throw a pillow and blanket down on the floor and sleep soundly on my snake room floor any day.
(PS - I dont know anything about pets-warehouse.com I just found pics of the clips on their site through a google search)
