Newbie: How about a closet as my iguanas home?

Hi

I just purchased 2 baby iguanas which i currently have in a 30 Ga tank, with all they need for now until i get their final home together.
I have a little experience with reptiles as i have a 1 1/2 Y.O. Bearded dragon and just gave my 2 green anoles away.
I have been searching all that the internet has to offer about building my own iguana cage but i have to admit i am frustrated since it seems hard for me to do. I am not the handy type.
As i was browsing the internet tonight in a spare room in my house i happened to look at that room closet.
Can i set them up in there?
The closet is 8 feet tall x 5 wide x 2 1/2 deep. I could replace the current door with a new custom one made of wire with a lock on it.
Humidity could build up nicely in there.
Beside ventilation which might be a slight problem, it seems that it could work nicely as i don't use that closet for much but junk.

Any opinions out there?

Thanks a lot

Patrick
