What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this pet door for granting dogs independent outdoor access, dramatically reducing supervision needs. The triple-flap design and magnetic seal excel at blocking cold, wind, and heat while maintaining indoor temperatures. Reviewers consistently highlight exceptional durability, with sturdy frames and flexible flaps withstanding frequent use and extreme weather. Installation is described as straightforward with clear instructions and minimal tools required, even for first-time users. The lockable slider and paintable trim add customization and security. A few note plastic screws could be more robust, and some mention it runs slightly small for very large breeds. Overall, most customers consider this a life-changing, reliable investment.

Good product but, getting the flaps installed is a son-of-a-gun

great weather protection
Would RecommendThis door has 3 flaps and a magnetic seal that is far superior to my old single flap dog door. My dog is large and has no issues going through it. when the temps dropped into the teens, it sealed out the cold very well.
Thank you for this review! It's great to hear that this door has helped reduce temperature transfer into your home, even at very low temperature...

Nice product, but needed 2 modify 4 wall install
Would RecommendScrews are not long enough to go through a 4 1/2 wall. I had to purchase longer screws (5inch) (10-24) with matching nut. I also used a drill to screw the longer screws through each hole. I used a 10 mm socket to assist with holding the nut in place while screwing it together.

It’s a great door! We just needed to replace
The box was missing the cover for the door. The box was taped up indicating it was already opened. Not all parts were in the box.

install
It's kind of a pain to install by yourself. The part in the middle doesn't "snap" in the way the directions say they will (I had to glue it to hold it in place) and the long screws to connect the outside to the inside are cheap, flimsy plastic. But once you get it installed, I guess it's nice.

Poor design
Would Not RecommendDoes not fit external walls as advertised, screws were 3 inches too short to fit a 2x4 stucco wall. Plastic lining for inside the wall is poorly attached and doesn't extend all the way through the wall. The cover for the inside does not provide any security, it doesn't slide in and latch. My previous PetSafe door was much better designed. And I paid an extra $30 for the extreme weather version, it has a third insulation flap that cost them $2 to make
