Yes those are the right shelving units.
My girls both have custom C&C cages with a shelving unit attached with zipties for the openable lid. http://hedgehogcentral.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1860&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=100
I recently bought this cage for my new boy Oakley, though and I love it!!

It costs from $40-$60 depending on where you buy it from and comes with the bottom, the sides, the lid, and the cage divider with ramp which lets you portion off a separate litter/wheel area. I will post pictures on the cage examples thread soon!
The only thing is that because it's so open you either need 2 150W ceramic heat emitters (like I have) or to insulate the sidings yourself with plastic sheets (I will probably do this in the winter time). Also the sides are a little low, but becasue Oakley's so small they are high enough for him and he can't get over them to climb. However if your hedgie is bigger you might need to make the sides higher with some coroplast.
Hope that helps!
