Welcome to RPN Designs and Fabrication 
I have nothing but good things to say about my experience with RPN Designs. From the first message exchanged to the final install of my inserts, Paul was very helpful, providing guidance regarding misting/drainage/ventilation considerations.
The inserts themselves are beautiful and perfectly manufactured. My tanks required a very specific measurement and they arrived in great condition and fit like a glove. Installation was simple and exactly as described.

I'll be a repeat customer and already recommend RPN Designs to anyone who asks!

When I was planning my rack build, I considered acrylic and glass for my inserts long and hard. After speaking to Paul regarding his willingness to build the inserts exactly the way I designed them, I was sold. You simply cannot get the clarity, features and convenience in glass that you can with acrylic. Paul designed and built my inserts to my exact specifications. Top and bottom fruit fly proof vents fully adjustable and exactly where I wanted them based on substrate height; something you cannot do with a glass insert. The door big enough for my hands but not so big I will have frogs leaping out while I have the door open and opening to the side rather then down, again something you cannot do with glass. Holes placed and sized for my misting and drain systems. Paul’s work is second to none, that is something I appreciate and require. I have no tolerance for sloppy or poor quality work. Paul’s work is exacting and accurate. There are no differences between any of the inserts, which is important to me. I need them to not only perform as intended but to look professional as well. These inserts are exactly that. After all that I asked, the price was more then fair; actually so affordable I thought there may have been a typo. I asked for a quote from a local acrylic shop that was more then 3x the price Paul asked. From the time I placed the order till my inserts were built was only a few days. Packing was excellent, shipping was affordable, and Paul even supplied the material necessary to install them. There was nothing more I could ask for and no way I could get all the features I did from anywhere but Paul.

While researching a new home for my orchids I found very few companies that made the size with the options I wanted. That is until I spoke to Paul from RPN designs. Paul was able to custom build my tank to all of my exacting details from door size to how big the vents should be.
The whole process was a pleasure and the results were even better.

Paul thank you very much for a quality build and pleasant smile, oh and the
wife thanks you for getting her bay window back.

It is view unconventionaly compared to other verts as you look at it from the side and not through the insert.
Works great, no leaking and very little condensation on the glass with none at all on the insert.
Thanks once again,

Superior craftsmanship to any acrylic tank I have seen as of yet. Everything is perfect, it's more of a piece of art than a tank. Makes me not even want to put dirt in it. I will definetly be ordering another acrylic tank in the future. Excellent and prompt service, Thank You.
