Endura Flap Pet Door for Vinyl Sliding Glass Doors | Dual-Flap Extreme Weather Design | Insulated, Energy-Efficient Dog Door with Locking Security | White, Small Flap, 77.25"-80.25" Slider Height

I live in Michigan it can get pretty cold and windy. These flaps have great magnets that hold them in place during harsh winds. There is no leaky wind coming in around the door or flaps. This was worth the money; my dogs are so happy they can go in and out when they want and we don't have to worry about when we will be home after work.

I did a lot of research on dog doors and different solutions. After ruling out putting a permanent dog door the hunt began for a slider dog door insert. There are several different types and I ruled those out because they were not very weather resistant or were aluminum (I don't want frost on the frame in the winter). We live in the Northeast and get the heat on the deck in the summer and LOTS of snow in the winter so we were aiming for something that will stand the snow, wind, nor'esters and heat off the deck. We have a vinyl sliding door and I was afraid that putting a dog door insert was going to degrade the energy efficiency of my sliding door so I went with this door. Even though it's a bit more on the expensive side I think it was worth the extra $$. The look of it is beautiful, it fits wonderfully in with my sliding door. We did trim a piece of the door off that was recommended by the manufacturer, otherwise the door wouldn't have fit. I noticed the measurements on the door didn't take into account a 'larger' overstep or overhand from the top of the track, I didn't anticipate having to trim the door but I was happy that was an option (I don't think I saw that it was an option in case I needed to do it while I was shopping initially). I do notice that the floor gets warmer because of the sunlight shining on it than my regular door. I should say, however, that our normal sliding glass door has been replaced recently and is on the high end of energy efficiency, I think it's a Pella door. The insert did come with insulation for either side of the door, just a normal piece of foam with adhesive on both sides. Another piece of door seal that wasn't in the instructions came with the door and doesn't indicate where to install it, there's only enough for one side of the door - we haven't installed that but will eventually and it looks like it will help a lot with air leakage. We bought the 'Large', there's enough room for our 90lb golden to get through comfortably. Our smaller dog also uses the door, she's older and about 40lbs. She has been using her paw to get through the door since the magnets are so strong but is slowly getting the hang of putting her head down and opening the door. It's been about 1.5 weeks and we really love the door. My best suggestion to the manufacturer would be to make some kind of training video to help new dog door owners get through this door. We are new dog door owners and I think it would have been helpful to get some advice from a video since my dogs are gentle and maybe a little more timid when it comes to putting their faces in a dog door to make it open, especially one with strong magnets.

Good product, but the magnets were a little strong and my dog wouldn’t use the door. Took a few out and she now uses it. Some air gets through, but not too bad.

I’m super disappointed with the installation of this dog door. The plastic piece that goes up into the jam is loose... my handy man had to use screws to reinforce the dog door for stability. My biggest issue is the piece that is supposed to be used to latch the slider door shut cannot be used... the two pieces don’t reach each other. If I had known this... before my guy had to use screws... I would have returned this door. Right now I’m using a piece of wood between the sliding door and jam to keep someone from just opening the door. My handy man is gonna buy a different latch to install later when he gets it. This was pretty darn expensive for having these huge issues!Update:I Hate this door... my most regrettable purchase ever! The plastic molding that goes in between your house sliding door and doggy door has warped.... now not only does my cool house air get out but now mosquitos are getting in. So frustrated... really garbage quality

The quality of this doggie door surpassed our expectations! It was worth the money to have something so well-made. We live in the mountains, so blustery weather is normal, but the weatherstripping provided decent insulation from drafts. Our Siberian Husky ADORES his door to the deck!FYI, we removed a couple of the extra magnets to make the door a little easier to push open- it’s still plenty strong, and it always closes.So pleased with this door...highly recommend!

Once I glued 3 parts back together, broken from shipping or more likely poor packaging. The assembly instructions for all their products are in one very small booklet. For $500.00 you would think it would have its own instruction. Also no information about which side is in or out. It now works great.

So first off my wife and I liked that this product was rated for severe weather and we live in rural Montana. We bit the bullet and paid $700, give or take a penny, and bought this dog door. Starting off strong it showed up damaged and wouldn't install in the sliding glass door completely or correctly (see first photo). This was probably due to the fact that it was packed in a flimsy cardboard box with absolutely NO foam padding except a thin layer at each corner. Secondly, the width of this door is so massive that it made our sliding glass door unusable. Once it was installed we realized that we were only going to have about 10 inches of opening to get through. This doesn't work for us because the sliding glass door is our main entrance and exit from the house. We will be returning this and going with a different product from a different company.

There is nothing cheap or inexpensive about this item. However, it is very good quality and I would purchase again. The flap is dual walled plastic with air in-between the layers. The magnets on the bottom make a great quick seal. I have had it installed for 2 months, within that time there has been wind, rain, snow and temps near -15 below zero. We have three dogs. (2) 60 pound dogs and a 8 pound dog. The door works perfectly for all of them.
