Review on ๐Ÿพ Ideal Pet Products Pet Passage Screen Door: Convenient 7.25" x 14.5" Opening by Colleen Jackson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good door, DYIer special. Responsible for planning and execution.

good One problem is that you actually have to remove the screen door to install it. Cutting rectangular slots for the hinges is an important step. Use masking tape to secure half of the door in place for an accurate cut and position. Also, covering the bottom half of the dog door with painter's tape will prevent scratches when you hammer/press the two halves together. Halves A and B are simply halves that you place under the screen. Then cut out the slots for the hinges, then snap the two halves into place, hammer, press together. I found the rubber mallet worked. Solid hit. Alternate opposite sides to keep everything in place. Do the door last. Keep it in place. Use a new cutting blade. Trim the leftovers around the door and don't worry about the frame leftovers. I think the aluminum metal screen will be a real challenge as will the heavy duty "favorite" screen. Not sure about long term use. I think more connection points would make this door better, stronger and more durable, just to say.

Pros
  • delivery was very quick
Cons
  • not bad
