Review on πŸšͺ BarksBar Original Dog Door - White, Plastic with Aluminum Lining, Soft Flap, Sliding Panel and Telescoping Frame, 2-Way Locking by Sabrina Guarino

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Shepherd approved! suitable for doors

Fast and easy assembly as the template is printed on cardboard instead of thin printing paper as with other manufacturers. It took longer to go to the hardware store and buy a jigsaw than it did to install. Was afraid to break down the storm door for this, but the seal on the pet door is tight. The plastic valve closes well, and even with the outer screen door ajar, no water got in during an unexpected downpour (although the dogs at home got wet, lol). I set it a little higher than the instructions say. Have three OES and it was easier for one to jump through the hole than for the bigger one to bend over and hit the spine on top. The tall boy weighs 98 pounds and 32 1/2 inches from floor to shoulder while his sister in the photo weighs 87 pounds and 26 1/4 inches. The quality can't be beat. I installed another 13" x 23" door for the shorter of the three and I only wish BarksBar had an XL door with similar dimensions for the quality, ease of installation and self sealing internal frame (needs sealant, spray foam and silicone use). don't even come close to Barks. If BarksBar ever makes an XL door, they'll get my order.

Pros
  • Easy assembly
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
