The best available solution.

If you've ever installed a dog door yourself, you know the feeling when your pet decides they need an unobstructed route to their roost, chews on the rubber flap and plastic housing, and causes concern. the amount of insulation from the inside of the actual door. You come home, stumbling upon a giant gaping hole in your house that lets snow, cold air, neighborhood kids, and anything else the store can arrange hang into your kitchen. Although your dog is proud of their recent achievements and you want to support them, it's also quite frustrating. Having gone through the described scenario not once or twice, but three times in 8 months with different doors of other styles. I decided to seriously solve the problem, although the neighborhood kids were already starting to annoy me. My 100 pound chocolate Labrador with a protruding jaw and a dangling tail wasn't going to win. Although he was better rested than I was because my wife insisted on that $200 Tempurpedic dog bed. I've spent hours researching, delving into details and reading reviews. This is the one that kept climbing to the top. I bit the $300 ball and ordered a large door. It showed up, the instructions were good, and I put it in with no problem. Keep in mind that I had a lot of practice with the installation at this point and had already cut a hole in the door on the previous three attempts that turned out to be the same size. We've had it for over 2 years now and this thing is built to last. It is a full metal frame (kaufest) and has a magnet system that surrounds the entire opening except for the hinge. We're still on the original valve, which only needs an occasional wipe down with soapy water. The wind doesn't push it around like the others I've used and it keeps your indoor climate indoors. Although it's a bit noisy and takes some getting used to, it doesn't bother me. This is the sound of efficient design and I couldn't be happier. Buy, don't let me down. Installation Tips: Remove the door from its hinges, place on a rack with towels, stick masking tape on the door where cuts will be, draw your lines on the tape, tape the bottom of the puzzle to avoid the door to scratch , looked one page at a time, not all at once. Measure carefully, be patient, watch the video on YouTube. Most importantly, when you're done, seal the edge of the dog door frame to the outside of the door to keep moisture out of the frame or the door itself. Much luck.
