WOW – Best pet door I have ever seen!

$379 is a LOT for me to spend, especially on a dog door. But, I have never seen a better designed or well made dog door! I originally purchased it not for it’s energy efficiency, but to keep some new kittens from going outside. Two of my 6 cats have figured out how to use it, so it can’t quite make that claim, but it isn’t super easy for them. Living in Arizona, the seal on this door is great and keeps out lizards, scorpions, and other critters, along with the dust and heat. I’m appreciating that more now that I have this pet door.

When I first received the door I was concerned about the frame getting wet from my dogs when they go in the pool. I sent an email asking if I could seal it in some way. I QUICKLY, on a weekend, received a response from the company/owner telling me I didn’t have to worry, “Everything on the door is completely weatherproof. The frame, which you were asking about, isn’t MDF. It’s a material called cellular PVC.” They even thought of that!

I installed the door using an inexpensive angle grinder I had because I didn’t want to take the door off it’s hinges. It worked great! You need to cut one side then the other. (Wear eye protection! Measure twice, cut once!) I did a better job than the “pro” I hired the last time. This 55 year old woman found it was much easier than I thought it would be.

I did have a mishap with my dogs pulling out the outer flap. Again, I contacted the company and they were so nice about it and sent me out new flap that was stiffened for use with my dogs. I found that this door is so well designed that the door doesn’t really get ruined and flaps are easily put back into place by loosening a couple screws.

The only thing I would like was the ability to lock the dogs outside, but this is not a big issue at all. I can just hang something on the outside of the door.

Take it from someone with 4 dogs and 6 cats – this dog door beats those plastic ones BY FAR! The company is responsive and fantastic to deal with! I had gone through at least 5 flaps on my old doors and they never sealed well to begin with. After a couple weeks they’d be stretched, warped and leaky. I fully expect this one to actually cost less in the long run because of how well it is made!

This dog door is a quality product, made in the USA, ingenious design by a company that TRULY PROVIDES CUSTOMER SERVICE! Well worth the price considering your cutting a big hole in your door!

Now if someone would design me a vacuum cleaner I’d be complete!
