- Magnetic Cat Screen Door, Lockable Pet Door for Screen Doors

I rent and could not put a cat door on the patio glass sliding door, so got this one that I could put on the screen door at least to keep unwanted flying pests out (except my cat when she's flying in). It is easy to install and will be great when my cat gets used to it. Cats are naturally cautious about anything new. 2 things to know that might help you: 1. The little screws and nuts go on easy if you push the screw all the way through the hole and screen netting. Then put your finger tip with the nut on it on the screw end, applying pressure on it while tightening the screw down. It works easily that way. 2) I made the mistake of not cutting the netting absolutely FLUSH with the insides of the plastic door edges. As a result, the swinging door would catch on it. Not easy to fix that but I finally got it off enough with a razor, so it would swing easily. You don't want your cat to have any issues with it at first, like a door that won't easily open. Kinda defeats the purpose. So make sure when assembling to keep the screen net from interfering with the door on the inside of the frame. As I was typing this my cat came up to it and was trying to figure out how to get in without using it. I went over, showed her how it opens then held it open until she was part way through, then gently lowered it so it was on her body and she could feel it as she walked through. I will do that until she gets used to it. She was a feral adoptee, so she is extra wary of changes, but she is also very smart, as they usually are. She will get it, and I won't have to keep getting up to open and close the door to keep the flying bugs or other crawlies out of our home.

Just brilliant, super easy to install, lockable. Cats figured it out immediately, dogs took a minute. I love that you can just put it into a screen door in minutes, and that it has a magnet close, so wind doesn't push it open. And it's super cute with the paw on it. I'd definitely buy again. They feel sturdy and of good quality and they sit solid in the screen and do not wobble.

This door works great. My cat figured out how to use it pretty quick and has no problem using it all the time. I like the magnet that makes sure it's closed. It was super easy to install and I'm not very handy so if I could do it fairly easily, anyone can. It gets 4 stars because when I used the lock to lock to lock the cat in, he just hit it pretty hard couple times and eventually it just gave and he got out anyways. So for me, the locking mechanism doesn't work at all, it may for other cats though. It's not a super huge deal because I can just close the sliding door and lock him in or out, but I must first know if he's in or out, which is not always knowable. I'm not going to complain; for the price, ease of installation, and convenience it adds over leaving the screen door partially open and allowing bugs and other things in, it's well worth it. Would be more convenient if the one way switch worked, but it's still a great product for the price.

This was easy to install. I just installed it today. I ended up using clamps to hold it in place after cutting out the screen. As I didn’t put it on the screened door. It’s super cute. Very durable. You can even lock it if you need to keep critters out. Perfect size. Secure. Visible cat Access. The door swings both ways depending on whether the cat is coming or going. I recommend this cat door for all your cat door needs.

This was exactly what we needed. We cut a whole in our screened window leading to the porch. It took the cat about one day to understand the door. She previously punched out the corner of the screen so the door was a perfect addition to the repaired hole. It does have a magnet to keep it shut and has locks during the night. Even the dog has been interested in it. lol. Nice materials and would buy again. Our cat and dog are 9lbs and it’s large for them.

It's very lightweight and attractive. Sadly, it cannot be used on our screen door - a fault of door's design and not the pet door itself. Well made with quality materials.

I have an indoor cat that dreams of being an outdoor cat. I don't want to crush his dreams, but I need to keep him safe. So he has an outdoor cat condo (AKA large cage) with the entrance through our kitchen window. (That way he doesn't interfere with the dog going in and out a million times a day). This little door is perfect for the window, and he goes in and out with no problems. I didn't have any major trouble installing either. A couple of things I noticed...if you don't cut the screen completely, the little screen pieces can rub against the door. I used some sandpaper to smooth the screen around the opening and that helped. Also, there is a magnet at the bottom. Not a big deal, but it does take a little more push to open (in other words, it doesn't swing freely...it catches in the magnet). Overall I am very pleased and my cat is too!

The material quality is good but it has a couple of faults. The door is almost impossible to latch closed because there is no way to hold the door in position while pushing the tiny latches in. Should have a finger hole to hold the door in position. The plastic door is also extremely flexible so when my big cat pushes it hard, it bends and the latches pop free - not an issue with smaller less pushy cats. A lot of reviews complained about difficulty installing but I just put it in position on one side and inserted a nail in each hole which held it in place and punched through the screen. Had a helper pull out one nail at a time and insert a screw while I put a nut on the other side. Overall a good product but probably won't work for you if you have a cat that is insistent on making it's way through when the door is locked.

I ordered three of these. Two for me and one for my mom. We have two active one-year old cats. They aren't outdoor cats, but we give them access to the two balconies on either side of the third floor of our house. I used to either have the screen open to give them free access (and all the bugs), or I was jumping up and down to open and close it for them. After installing these cat door, it took about a day for them to get the hang of it, and now they are back and forth at their leisure. The doors are quick and easy to assemble and install, and they look cute. My mom's 15 year old cat was more timid about using his, but a week in, he has it figured out. The only draw back is when there's a breeze, you still have the whole top of the screen open, but it's summer, so we'll cross that bridge...

We own a window and door screen repair company, and have installed many pet doors in patio sliders over the past five years. We used to use a different brand of pet door, but had lots of problems with the front and back separating and falling apart, as the two sides only snapped together. If the pets weren’t very coordinated and ran into the door a few times, it would fall apart. We decided to try this one and have been much happier. It’s easier to install, and stays together very well as it has screws all around the frame to secure the two pieces together. It looks super cute too! Our customers love it! Delivery was quick, and product arrived undamaged. Would highly recommend.

We built our cat a catio and put this in the screen of a window so she could go in and out as needed. It's great for her. A little bit cheap feeling plastic and the lock thingies are hard to move but it serves its purpose. Photo taken from the cat door

This is a great door. It is pretty easy to install, the nuts are a bit godly and tiny but they give you a couple spares in case you drop and lose one. The nuts and screws make it excellent. We have the heavy duty pet face screen and the other snap in type doors wouldn’t hold together. This seems very secure and works great. The magnet ensures it doesn’t flop around in the wind. Perfect so our doggie can enjoy the fenced yard whenever she likes!

I have 2 pets. One weighs 10 lbs and the other 19 lbs. Installed by myself. First few hours did not install the door flap. Pets got used to going in and out. The 10 lb gets in and out very easy. She is getting used to using the flap (see video). However the 19 lb, he doesn't like the flap. Therefore I made a small hole on the flap so when I am outdoors I can leave it open (attached a bungy cord) and he goes in and out. Would like to see them make a "medium" size. Only option was a small or large. As per some of the reviews I chose the small as I did not want my 10 lb to get her hind legs injured with the larger door flap. Very happy with this purchase. Don't have to get up every time they want to go out. Highly recommend. Note: to make sure that the screen doesn't unravel, as the frame is only 1/2", I cut less screen and "doubled" it and then installed the screws and nuts. Could only upload one video.
