Q: Do you have to screw this into the frame?
submitted by Debbie - 2 years ago
A: Yes. That said, it is sometimes difficult to do so because if you have a recessed frame and your track is a type with a guide in the middle than the bracket will not fit properly unless there is lots of space on either side of the guide. I was only able to mount the top bracket as a result.
submitted byNot recommended - 11 months agoA: Great question, Debbie! Although some customers choose not to use the installation screws for temporary installation, we do recommend using them as they provide more stability.
submitted byPetSafe Brand Expert - 2 years agoBrand expertA: No. I just popped mine in since I needed it on my second story floor and didn’t feel the need to use a locking mechanism other than a bar in the door track. But You do have the option to securely screw it in.

Q: can I lock my sliding glass with this insert or does it remain unlockable?
submitted by Morgan - 2 years ago
A: Thank you for reaching out with this question. Yes, you can use the petdoor's locking mechanism rather than the one that is currently on your door.
submitted byPetSafe Brand Expert - 2 years agoBrand expertA: You cannot use the blocking mechanism that is on your sliding glass door. You must mount the lock included with the product as well as drill a hole in the stationary portion of your sliding glass door in most cases. Personally, as a renter I was unable to do any drilling like that so I just got a bar to put down.

Q: Can you still use the sliding glass door as usual?
submitted by Jamieaur1 - 3 years ago
A: Yes, but the locking mechanism on the sliding glass door will not work and the seal that is formed between the sliding glass door frame and the door itself does not work for my door. I am having to caulk in the pet door so that it will seal better and also have had to buy weather stripping to put on the inside where the door frame meets the pet door frame.
submitted byNot recommended - 11 months agoA: Thank you for the great question! The sliding glass door is still usable to enter and exit. It is recommended to also install the lock that is included in the packaging to lock your sliding glass door to the patio panel.

Q: Does it fit vinyl door frame
submitted by Beaty - 10 months ago
A: Thank you for your great question, Beaty. This pet door will fit in a vinyl door as long as the door meets the measurement requirements. However, it is very important to note that vinyl is far more brittle compared to wood or metal sliding door frames. Due to this, we advise that extra caution must be taken when screwing the pet door into place to avoid damaging the sliding glass door frame. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us at 1-866-738-4379, and we'll be happy to help!

Q: I bought this door and just got it. it says online it is adjustable to 96 in. it is not. I have tall sliding door and this only goes to 80. Why does it say online adjustable to 96 in.?
submitted by customer - 3 years ago
A: Thank you for your great question. There are two height options for this door. One is adjustable between 77 and 81 inches, the taller is adjustable between 91 and 96 inches. We're sorry for any confusion.

Q: This is a brand new door and the top height adjustment piece quite working sometime during installation - not springy anymore. Not sure why. Anyone else have this issue and know how to fix?
submitted by Mama V - 3 years ago

This is a great pet door. It's substantial, easy to install and remove, and looks as good as a pet door can look. I especially like the spring-loaded top panel, which allows me to secure the door without permanently installing it. Because I live in Minnesota, there will be months where I can't use it, so the easy installation and un-installation is a great feature. Worth every penny.

No locking hardware for your sliding glass door
2 out of 5 stars
Kris H - 1 month ago
originally posted on PetSafe
Not as described on the website. I specifically picked this one for the hardware that was supposed to allow me to lock the sliding glass door to the pet patio door. Instructions were placed in the wrong order. It had me lock the height into place with screws before Installing brackets in the sliding glass door frame, making it almost impossible to slide the door back into place over top of the brackets. Top of pet patio door was already bent upon receipt. Does not install onto every sliding glass door well. My sliding glass door does not have a track at the top, so if it wasn't for the bracket weakly holding it into place with one maybe 1/4-1-2 inch screw, the patio door would slide back and forth on the top of the frame. With the bracket in place it does not sit flush with the slider door and the bottom bracket is too wide to be flush with the door because the track limits where it can sit. So the bottom bracket has a gap between itself and the door it screws in to. It also does not sit flush with the door jamb and I can see light through to the outside. The website states that it comes with hardware to lock your sliding glass door to your pet patio door but it does not. It comes only with a lock that can be installed against the stationary part of your slider to keep your sliding glass door from sliding open or closed. Unfortunately that is not the right size either and does not reach from the sliding glass door to the stationary part of my slider. So I got done installing it only to find out that I could not secure my sliding glass door at all. I then had to quickly find something approximately 24 inches in length to temporarily secure the door so that I could go to sleep that night. Not at all what I expected and I do not feel like it will keep out intruders or insects. Still trying to find a fix to make it safe enough to leave it in place.

With slider installed on door track, unable to lock sliding door. Have to place PVC pipe in the track to prevent it being opened. Company's solution for a lock is subpar. Wish dog door fit in the track of the screen, then I could still close and lock it.
Good purchase for dogs access to outside.

This is one of the best purchases I have made. It is installed in the sliding glass doors in the sunroom. I had it installed for me and the installer was impressed with the pet door. There is a slight gap between the sliding door and the pet door, but that is because the sliding door is not straight. I have no complaint about that because it is an improvement over leaving the sliding door open or constantly having to open the sliding door for my dog to go out. Although I have a small dog, I purchased the extra large to accommodate larger visiting dogs. Training dogs to use the pet door takes time, especially if the dog has never used a dog door before. It took about a week before my neighbor's 12 year old dog felt comfortable using the new door. It has worked so well, my neighbor is getting a pet door for the sliding doors at her house.

It did fit lengthwise but could not use the brackets to secure the fit on my frame. The top spring fit piece is what holds this unit place with using backer rod foam I had on hand which I put on one side of unit(wall side) to keep centered on track. My dogs do love it after about three days of learning how to go in and out of the dog door!
Such an asset to our family including the pups.

Design better - 11 months ago, Verified purchaser
The only redeeming quality about this is that it is a door for a dog or cat. The brackets did not fit properly in my track, so I could not put the bottom one on. It needs weather stripping on both sides included as part of the product. It costs $40 to get that and if you don't it will seep both air and noise through the edges. The instructions are trash and include very few diagrams, the video was much better but was not included as part of the instructions. Fortunately it was on target's website. The door does not include a hole for any kind of latch and the lock that comes with it requires drilling into the stationary portion of the sliding glass door which does not work if you are renting. They should be including a bar instead of a lock as such. I only gave it two stars because it is a doggie door, but I almost would prefer to be able to put a hole in my wall than install this.

I’ve used your regular dog doors for over a decade and loved them. I specifically bought your patio dog door because of those experiences. I was really disappointed. - Opening up the package, the rubber window seal was just loosey goosey in the box, completely unraveled with no bag. This kinked the middle. I was still able to install it to the door. 24 hours later, the rubber is lying on the floor. The adhesive strip was still on the door, so it wasn’t an install problem. Your rubber peeled away from Your pre-installed glue strip. Then I had to peel that glue off and use a solvent to clean up the mess. This is a material incompatibility problem. - The instructions for install aren’t clear. Bad verbiage and poor pictures. More pictures/diagrams would be highly recommended for all aspects. A UX designer would have fixed this. - Once I got the door in the frame, I realized there’s a visible gap between the sliding door and the panel. You offered no weatherproofing. When I went to your YouTube channel about the install, just in case I messed up (I didn't, again, poor instructions), YOUR video also shows a sizable gap with light coming through. There are several comments asking about this. Your replies basically say: sorry, go buy some weather stripping. - The lock mechanism is a joke. This essentially renders the sliding aspect of a sliding door useless. In order to open the door, you have to bend over and pull a pin out. So much for usability and accessibility. Didn’t you do user-testing? - Even with your lock, there is no pressure to hold the door tight against the dog panel. I have to use the broomstick method, also recommended by other disappointed users in the comments. Yo… what happened here?

We're so sorry to hear that this door was not to your preferences, Ben! The designs of our products are always impacted by customer feedback, as all of our products are thoroughly tested both by us and customers before design decisions are completed. Though many customers do prefer the lock in the track as it is simple to install and use, if you do prefer a rotary lock we do have these available. These can be seen here- https://www.petsafe.com/product/patio-panel-rotary-lock-kit/ Though the panel does not come with weatherstripping for the slight gap between the panel and the sliding door, as this space is typically very small, some customers do choose to use foam weatherstripping in this area. This can be helpful as it can typically fit into small spaces if narrow weatherstripping is used. Please know that what you have described with your glass sweep is very unusual; so that we can get a replacement set up for you under warranty for this piece, please get in touch with our Customer Care team here- https://support.petsafe.net/ Our phone hours are Monday through Friday 8 A.M.- 7 P.M. EST, and our chat hours are Monday through Saturday 9 A.M. – 9 P.M. EST.

The sliding glass door insert is alright, but whenever we their is winds, the flap keeps blowing open letting heat and AC out. Stronger magnets should be used to avoid this issue. Would make the door more energy efficient and save customers money from heat and AC loss. I have the extra large door.

I purchased this to replace an old Petsafe/Johnson pet door that I could no longer get replacement flaps to fit. I was hoping that it would fit the same as the old door, but it is narrower so required me to move locks and alarm sensor. I have yet to decide if the flap works as well as the old 2 part flaps. I have noticed that the magnet doesn't always catch so am wondering how it will be when winter sets in. Other than these personal concerns, I am sure it would be a great door for a first timer. I have 11 cats that use this door many times a day so it get a work out!

Removable Dog Door for Sliding Glass Door

We needed a dog door for our Doberman Zahara to be able to go in and out during the day and had no place to put a conventional one. Our only logical exit was the Sliding Glass Door or cutting a hole in the wall out to the back porch and we weren’t doing that. We are so glad we found this removable panel that fits perfectly into the sliding glass door opening. It’s not a perfect seal but has very little open area between the door and the panel. It’s very easy to put in just lift the spring top in top and bottom grooves and slide as far to the door frame as possible and shut the door up next to the panel. Zahara loves it!!!
