Highlighted Reviews
"I've invested in multiple pet doors to keep my cats in the house at night. This door is the absolute best and can stand up to persistent cats. The price is higher than I'd like but it's a small investment to keep your fur kids safe."
"The one-way operation "in-only" requires that you pull the door inside against the spring, while turning the know into the respective position. Only problem is, there is nothing to hold on! You need a suction cup, or a second person on the outside pushing the door in. Major design flaw."

While the door is durable and well-made, the design flaw in the one-way operation setting makes it less convenient to use. Consider this if you have persistent cats or dogs.
