Don’t bother. After paying $23 and slowly breaking the plastic that “locks” the 2 sides together, we realized that we could just cut a flap in our screen door and it would leave just the same amount of bug coverage as as a door. It’s not like the cat door does anything except make the cats push open a heavyish door anyways…no security or anything added.
It’s fine, but just think about it in case that would work for you too.
This was very easy to install. Ignore the review where they state to cut the hole after you install it. It’s impossible to install the door without the hole already being cut. I installed this on my screen door from my screened in porch. All you do to install, is hold up one side of the pet door to the screen, cut the screen, leaving some slack to attach to the pet door, then snap the other side on. No need to remove your door to install the pet door (as stated in instructions). The only complaint that I have about this thing is the locking feature. If you lock the pet door, your pet can easily just push the whole pet door through through the screen (the pet door casing and all). Purchase this pet door, knowing that you won’t be able to lock it.
This door is extremely difficult to install. My husband tried to install it on his own to no avail. I tried helping by standing on one side of the screen while he stood on the other and pushing. It just would not engage. Our screen eventually ripped on the corner from so much pushing back and forth. We tried taking off the screen door like others have suggested but our screen would not come off the track. Since the screen ripped, when we have it re-screened, we’ll install the pet door then.
For now, it will sit on the shelf in the garage.
Great little dog door, and cheap too! Easy installation and a quick way to get a dog door without sacrificing space for entry. Tip: use a wrench to clip to sides together on the screen, works better than a hammer.
This screen doggie door was so easy to “install” in our slider’s screen. It took each of our dogs about 3 days to learn how to go in-and-out on his own, but now, they have such a great independence! They love it, and we love to see themm so happy and free!
