Is this dog house (for ducks) raccoon proof if I put a door on it?

Hi, Do you think this very heavy and thick polycarbonate material will be raccoon proof ? I will attach a hinged and pad locked door. It'll be for my couple of ducks., for safety at night, and have it raised

on cinder blocks. Thank you.

You'll need plenty of ventilation, maybe the door will be framed and made of hardware cloth and thick fence wire?

Thank you- I'll drill holes in the board I'll be using for the door.

Curious to see how you will attach this coon proof door.

I went with different coop.

Consider the square inches of ventilation provided by the round holes--you'll get far more ventilation with a frame/hardware cloth door than with a solid board with holes, just my two cents.

They need a lot of air flow or they’ll roast.

Put a 4 wire electric fence around it and you shouldn't need a door on it ! Why would anyone want to lock up two ducks in that for the night? Sorry just being honest.
