Ideal Pet Products Original Pet Door with Telescoping Frame, Extra-Large, 10.5" x 15" Flap Size

The instructions for installing were easy to follow. Mine was installed into a hollow back door 11 years ago. It's important that the doggie door be high enough from the bottom to maintain the integrity of the door. It's very easy to clean, open and close. My dog is a 55 lb boxer and has no problem going in/out of it. The only issue I have is leaving it open when I leave home. There is a gap between the sides of the flap and doggie door that allows the a/c to escape. It might be possible to add a piece of foam on the inside of the door, which will block that area & still allow the trap to slide in/out & block the a/c. It'd probably have to be glued on.

It was easy to install, took me about 20 minutes. Just make sure you follow the directions and you'll be fine (or get someone that's handy if you're not to install it). Our dog is 30lbs. and she fits just fine. The flap has a magnetic strip at the bottom which seems to work pretty well and also has a sliding lock out panel for keeping your critters in and other out. Good product at a great price (go to your local big box pet supply and you'll pay almost double). *update, our pit mix is now 45lbs and still fits through it just fine. We've had this doggie door for almost 2 years now and it's holding up just fine. The flap is a bit dirty but it can be expected from dogs running in and out all day.

I bought this for Quinn our 35lbs American Eskimo. He is principally a house dog, but sometimes we need to put him outside for a day or two and have a neighbor care for him. We cannot board him as he gets severely ill every time. He is older and has ALWAYS been unwilling to use a dog house of any type when outside. As he is aging we wanted him to have more protection from the elements. So we installed the door in the side of our tool shed and put his kennel in the shed hoping he would use it. We specifically bought a larger size pet door than another dog of comparable size might require because we know our dog. We didn't want him to not feel confined or restricted in anyway hoping he would learn to use it more easily. After a little training with a few treats (maybe 20 minutes following the manufacturer's instructions) although reluctant at first he mastered it. No more coming home to a wet, cold dog with a perfectly good (and I might add expensive) albeit unused dog house in the yard. Now he goes in the pet door and into his kennel in the shed. I wish I had bought it years ago I could have saved a lot of money on that dog house too. I am fairly handy and found the installation to be simple and straight forward. The solid door is the template - brilliant engineering! The instructions were easy to understand and follow. Although the instructions provided didn't say to do so, I did caulk the seam where the two halves meet to attempt to ensure it doesn't leak. A ounce of prevention... Quinn is a relatively calm dog and smaller than the door so, it will only get light use as he walks in somewhat "gingerly". A larger or more rambunctious dog might wear it out due to the plastic construction. In our case, this one will definitely out last the user. It was specifically selected considering the needs of the dog (size/construction). It was straight forward to install. The results are much better than I had hoped. I love it. Quinn loves it. What better recommendation could you get?

We rescue sick and unwanted dogs and try to give them a good home with a loving family. Right now, we have three elderly, hospice dogs, a Chihuahua, a Cocker Spaniel and a Pit Bull, Labrador mix and live in the woods, well back off of a rural road. There is no problem letting the dogs roam our property at will as the first thing we teach them when they get here is to stay within the boundaries of our land. This door works well for all three sizes. I like the fact that it is clear and I can see through to the other side. At first they thought it was a window and just looked through the door. However, I believe that the door being clear actually helped to train the dogs as I could encourage them from the inside and use their food bowls which motivated them to learn to use the door and receive a snack as a reward. When I called them to go out, I used the man door without letting them pass and then kept calling them from the other side and they learned very quickly how to poke their door open and pass through. Now, no more getting up in the middle of the night for first one and then the other when they have to go. There may be thicker doors with better insulation or weather seals but I can't feel any drafts and this door works well for us as it opens onto a porch, out of the weather and the exterior door of the porch is sheltered under a roof overhang and can be left open all year round. Good price for a good product and easy to install.

Es una maravilla y de batalla. Ya tenía una, que hasta hoy está en perfecto estado. Compré una segunda porq estaba a muy buen precio y yo que tengo 7 perros nunca se sabe cuando se pueda necesitar, pero la que tengo tiene 2 años y sigue como nueva. Y no había podido encontrar la misma, así que aproveché

40kg german shepherd fits happily though and light enough for my cats to hop through too. Not sure how long the magnet will last but not to worried as the flap is for an out house and not directly into the house. Value for money

Excellent product quality, great price and super easy installation. I live in India and the shipping was remarkably quick all the way from US, and complete hasselfree clearance through customs. I ordered this for my bedroom door as my pup loves to sleep with me but needs to step out for his business. It hardly took any time for installation, just had to cut the right size in my door and screw the two frames together N poof!!! I've got a great doggy door . My pup loves it and didnt take more than 2 mins to figure out how to get in and out of it. The magnetic strip makes it a perfect hold of the vinyl flap. Nothing else gets in or out. For privacy the lockdown slider works like a charm. Over all a great addition for my pet as now he's more independent 👍🏽 Just hoping it will be good for him when he's a fully grown golden retriever (should be less that 90lbs as an adult). I definitely recommend to buy !!!

A border collie, alaskan malamute and dalmatian can get through this door quite happily. Very pleased with the product, great price and works as described.
