PetSafe Screen Door for Dogs & Cats, Up to 30 lb, Brown, Small

So far excellent product, that I found easy to install. I used the cardboard box to support the screen on the ground for cutting the mesh. I found placing the screws sequentially to provide securing the frame without using a rubber mallet, was very satisfactory and there was no opportunity for the frame to migrate.

I’m super satisfied with this for my pup! I have a deck my dog likes to sit out on, and constantly opening and closing it, can be a hassle - especially since the moment when I sit down, she wants to go out. I had no idea that a screen dog door even existed, I thought I was going to have to buy a whole new screen door! Instructions were clear, it was super easy to install. I didn’t get it 100% straight, which kind of bothers me, but it works perfect perfectly. I’m so glad I can now give access to my dog anytime she wants - and the fact I didn’t have to buy a whole new screen door is icing on the cake! This item is well worth the investment. I didn’t add the silicone it recommended, only because I couldn’t find it - I will add that later. I used a box cutter, and a level - mallet was 100% needed. I do think this will enable it to have some more security, because if you have a bruiser of a pup, they could knock it off if they punch through it. So I recommend adding! Overall - so darn worth it. It’s great!

3 1/2 stars. Great option to let the fur babies on the balcony to bird watch while keeping flies out of the house. Since screen is cheaper and easy to replace it’s a great option for this renter. I have a small dog and two cats. One cat and the dog took right to it and have never used one before. The other cat, no surprise, is going to take a little longer. But it’s already a win because I can close the screen door and not have to let anymore flies in. The only downside is the frame doesn’t want to completely close into itself on the bottom. See the photo/video. This is causing the bottom corner to come loose as well. I used a rubber mallet, but it just won’t snap together and I didn’t want to break it. The other three corners are attached. I thought the frame came with small screws for the corners for an extra way to secure it, but there’s not. I will be adding some. I would recommend that addition if the company checks reviews. That way if a pet is going through and hits it just right it won’t fall off on them and scare them. That hasn’t happened yet and hopefully it won’t. It is easy to install and I like how it locks. I wish there were a small plate I could put over it so pets don’t scratch at it when I lock it. But that may be something I can come up with.

This is easily one of the best purchases I've made for my dog. She's a big dog, but this gate is just perfect for her. The installation was super quick. Jessie manages to go through it so easily, whether she's walking calmly or rushing through. She really seems to enjoy using it. Highly recommended!

This is a very promising product. Unfortunately, they were really cheap on the materials in some places, and that drags the quality of the product way down. First, the locks are useless. They are tiny plastic pins that are easy to break, and they don't even extend far enough to lock the door well. Our 5 pound puppy walked right through the "locked" door like it wasn't even there. The plastic pins at the top that allow the door to swing back and forth are thicker, but they could easily be broken by a dog running full steam through the door. If the pins at the top and bottom were metal, the door would be a lot more sturdy. I was going to replace the, now broken, locking pins at the bottom of the door with metal ones, but I was afraid that if the bottom pins held when the dog ran into it, it would just make the top ones snap. The other issue is that it does not install well. I tested it on our old screen first to see how it worked, because I was planning on replacing our screen with a thicker pet resistant screen. It snapped into place easily on our old screen. We locked it, and when the dog ran into the locked door the first time, the outside piece popped off... and then the inside piece fell off. Pretty useless. Before installing the new screen, I tested trying to snap the door over it. The door will not snap into place at all with a thicker gauge of screen. I realized that I would have to drill holes and actually use nuts and bolts to hold it in place. Once I got the new screen installed and put the dog door in place, bolted it in as well as using a bead of adhesive to really keep it in place, it actually works quite well. However, out of the box without modifications, it will probably be useless to most people. If the company would like to hire me as a consultant. I can show you how to make this product not be a flimsy piece of poo.

The cheapest option I could find and it’s exactly what I wanted. Somewhat easy install, thought I could get away with keeping the screen door attached but did end up having to remove to finish install. My dogs/cats are still learning how to use it but the more treats, the more they use it. Fits my Pomeranians and fat outdoor/indoor cats for size reference

Update 09/11/2017 - downgraded to 1 Star. I definitely cannot recommend this door if you have active dogs like mine. My 18 lb. Shih Tzu / Border Terrier loves to fly through the door at full speed and as a result, he's knocked out the swinging inner door not once, not twice, but 3 times, each time necessitating the purchase of a complete new PetSafe door. The door design is flawed. The swinging door swivels on 2 1/8" plastic pins. If the pins were made of steel instead of cheap, low strength plastic, the pins would not break. It was already a flawed design. As I mentioned in my original post below, the 2 piece PetSafe door frame will separate under constant use. There is absolutely no way that the door frame pieces will stay together press fit together with a layer of window screen sandwiched in-between. When the dogs come and go through the door, they are exert a small amount of force on the door frame in either direction and eventually the frame will separate. The only solution is to drill holes through the frame and bolt the pieces together with screws and nuts. I've bought my last PetSafe Pet Screen Door. I'm moving onto something else because it simply is not designed to handle the rigors exerted upon it by an active dog. Original Review (2 stars). I bought two PetSafe Pet Screen Doors knowing that it was a flawed design having read most of the negative reviews of the product. However, for the measly sum of $11.87 X 2 to replace 2 shredded patio screen doors, thanks to my overzealous small dogs, I decided to give the product a try, knowing the best alternative metal screen pet doors cost 10 to 20 times more. For my installation, I installed the PetSafe doors concurrently with new pet resistant vinyl coated screens which are thicker and stronger than typical screens. As I thought would happen, PetSafe doors would not mount properly on my pet resistant screens. The PetSafe doors features 2 plastic frames which feature tongue and groove channels. When the 2 frames are pressed together, the channels should clamp together tightly onto the screen, thus securing it in place. The frames rely on friction to keep from separating, but pet resistant vinyl screens are simply too thick to allow the doors to be installed as per the instructions. So I created my own set of instructions: 1. Go to the hardware store and buy 8 machine screws and nuts - size #8 x 3/4" long. Also buy #8 flat washers and lock washers. If you don't already have a drill bit to match the #8 screw diameter, buy one now. If you don't have a drill, maybe you should not be attempting this project. Also purchase 5 - 2" inch nails that are the same diameter as the #8 machine screw. 2, Tape the frames together with masking tape so that when you drill the holes, the frames don't separate. Drill 8 holes, 1 on each corner and 1 each at the mid-point of all 4 sides. 3. Face the screen interior side up. Take the interior side frame and place it onto the door or window screen in the position you desire. Measure the spacing if you don't trust your eyeballs. Use masking tape to tape it to the screen so it won't slide around. 4. Take the 4 nails and push it through the 4 corner holes and through the screen mesh. 5. Take the other frame and mount it on the other side of the screen mesh, using the 4 nails to align the 2 frame together. 6. Take the 5th nail and push it through one of the open holes, through the mesh, and through the 2nd frame. Wiggle it around slightly. Because the screen mesh is tightly woven, we need the nail to expand the hole enough for a #8 screw to pass through it. Remove the nail after the drill hole is clear of all obstructions. 7. Take 8# - 3/4" machine screw and flat washer and insert it into the hole. On the other end, secure it with a lock washer and nut. Thread it part way but do not tighten yet. 8. Do the same for the remaining 7 holes. 9. Once all the screws and nuts are mounted, tighten them down, but do not over tighten. Keep in mind that the frames are plastic and could crack from excessive pressure. 10. Using a sharp utility blade, cut the hold for the screen. After the hole is cut, swing the door to see if there is any leftover screen material sticking out that prevents the door from swinging freely. If there is, then use the utility blade to clean it up. Optional: There are 2 plastic pins at bottom of the swinging door. One of my dogs likes to use his paw to push the door open, but in so doing he often inadvertently locks the swinging door. I decided to remove the locking pins by holding the door up, extending the pins, and cutting them off with the utility blade. Considering the screw and nut was invented back around 400 BC, I have no idea why PetSafe abandoned it while designing these doors. Did they suddenly decide they were no longer useful? I've attached a picture of my Pet Safe Door as installed after modifications. It's not pretty, but the door swings properly and combined with the pet resistant screen, it's mounted securely. Considering these doors probably cost no more than a dollar in manufacturing costs, if it lasts more than a year baking in the hot So Cal sun, I'll be thrilled. So if you encounter problems installing these doors, hopefully I've provided an idea on how to make it work. At $11.87, Amazon's special deal price, it's woth buying. At it's normal price of $22 - $25, I would definitely evaluate other brands to see if the installation is any better.

This product is actually very cool. My tiny puppy figured it out immediately and now has in and out access to the balcony. It’s her own special door. It’a great for apartments with outdoor access to a patio or balcony. It was too challenging for me to install but my handyman managed just fine. It did take some effort to snap it into place but once done it’s very sturdy and works great.

J'ai acheté cette chatière pour mon moustiquaire et c'est vraiment chouette pour le chat il peut rentrer et sortir sans besoin qu'on lui ouvre la porte.

Ürünler hızlı bir şekilde, bir gün içinde elimize geçti. Doğrudan sineklik filesine montaj edilebilmesi ve çerçevesinin ince olması gerçekten çok güzel. Kedilerimiz hemen alıştılar. Sineklik üzerine uygulama için mükemmel bir seçim oldu.

This screen door cat flap provides an easy to install solution for cat entry & exit. It was very easy to install the flap onto the screen door, and the provided instructions were clear and straight forward. One of our three cats figured out how to use the door right away. The second is slowly getting the hang of it, and our third is an old pro that has experience with an older version of this entry method and has no issues. Because this is mounted on a screen vice a solid surface, you do need to be mindful of the overall sturdiness of the installation, but this is to be expected too. I recommend this cat door.

Muito fácil de instalar, eu mesma instalei, e bom material. Minha gata filhote está se adaptando.
