Ideal Pet Products Aluminum Pet Patio Door, Adjustable Height 77-5/8" to 80-3/8", 7" x 11-1/4" Flap Size, White

Very happy with this product. I used to have a similar balcony pet door for my cat, made by Petsafe. However, now I have a puppy that will not fit through, and that one also was not adjustable for my new balcony, so I tried this out. It was more expensive, but the quality was also much better. The flap has a magnetic seal, so that it isn't left open after use. Instead of acrylic or plastic for the window portion, it is glass. The aluminum frame appears durable, and was easy to install. Someone complained about the gap when you close the balcony door on it, however, I don't find this to be a big deal... they provide an insulation strip (which isn't great, but hey, it's free), and the gap is tiny if you adjust it properly (like 1-2mm, not enough for bugs to be a problem). As for the complaint about it making the balcony door unlockable, you will have that problem with any of these patio door pet doors, and it's an easy fix.. just get a balcony door stick lock, or cut a small pc of plywood to fit. Also, I got the large size and the opening is high for my basset hound puppy. I took the other reviewer's advice (the one with corgis), and took out the bottom slat, put it above the door opening pc... all you need is a screwdriver and about 20 min time. My puppy is happily using his gate now, with no problems. UPDATE: Been a few months now, and I'm still really satisfied with this product. I am now using it in conjunction with a Regalo extra wide play yard fence / gate (bent in an arc around the balcony door) and the DoggieLawn/Fresh Patch hydroponic grass products (outside on the balcony, so he can pee and poop on his own terms). Add a Petsafe auto feeder and an iPhone app baby monitor, and he's totally got an independent space while I'm away at work. He has his bedding area and full free access to the outside, where the grass products are, and he can pee and poop to his heart's delight, or just go out and look at trees and birds from the balcony. No accidents lately at all, and he uses the balcony door happily on his own (I still reward him if I see him use the grass boxes for elimination). I would not consider him fully housetrained, as he is just a 12 mo old Basset Hound, but he is well on his way.... pretty good for a breed that is very hard to housetrain. These products (and Nature's Miracle) were lifesavers, because he used to have accidents all the time and escape his homemade enclosure. Now, I go to work worry-free and can watch him on my iPhone from anywhere (the app is called the Cloud Baby Monitor). No more 2 and 3AM trips every 2 hrs at night, down 2 flights of stairs in my condo complex; when I'm away or asleep, my puppy can do his business on his own schedule. Eventually, I am hoping to expand and then get rid of the gated area, once I am satisfied he is trustworthy around the house, and I'm hoping he will just use the balcony door or signal me at the front door with the dog potty bells. Attaching photos of the whole setup (the last is a screenshot of what I see on the baby monitor iPhone app). NEW UPDATE: it is now 15 months since I have bought this… My dog is now a full-grown basset hound. He is still not house-trustworthy and must stay in the enclosure when I leave the house. The enclosure is pretty much like a deluxe dog kennel that allows him access to the balcony potty spot. I still love this dog door – best money I ever spent. In fact, I am probably going to buy a second one to install at my boyfriends townhouse for him, since we go there on the weekends. The flap has gotten a tiny bit discolored over time but still has not gotten permanently bent, and the magnetic closure still works well.

Great product. Works great. User friendly. And my dog LOVES it. !

Easy to install sturdy if you have cats this is the patio door you need Light weight enough for the cats The only problem I have is 1 of my cats is over weight so I had to make the door bigger

No encaja tan fácilmente como pensaría uno, si hay que hacer ajustes, ya que cada puerta es distinta y si quedan algunos espacios en donde debería cerrar. En nuestro caso, no pudimos bloquear la puerta con el dispositivo que viene porque el ancho del carril es mayor, entonces no quedo tan bien como nos hubiera gustado.

I was torn with spending more choosing the more expensive insulated one, kinda wishing I did. In order to fit my door I took the piece off that adjusts for different heights then it fit perfectly. Literally takeoff 2 screws. There’s a draft around the door so I may try silicone on both sides and I’m going to purchase a 2nd flap as it suggests to help with draft. It does only come with one weather strip. You most definitely need 2. Th hardware that a sliding patio door uses that’s on the inside of the door frame stops it from having a tight fit so for now I put bath insulation in to stop the draft on that side. It’s way better then a swinging door in a screen with the whole thing open. After insulating where the door meets it putting a stick to push the door against it, siliconed around the frame of where the plastic is and adding insulation along glass from top to bottom and a piece to stop wind from coming through between doors I have successfully stopped the drafts. So far it has gotten as low as -7 and it was still warm in my livingroom. I did leave an updated pic of end result.
