I put this in the wall of my house in about an hour with the help of my friend. It looks like a professional did it. My dog learned how to use it by himself in a couple of days and now he has free reign of the house and to get outside. He loves it.

The following is a combination of opinion and some factual matter.

The telescoping sections don't meet in the outside wall of my house which uses 2" x 6" (actually 1.5" x 5.5") studs.

The molded plastic which appears to be ABS is a bit thin. The outside section broke away from the house in -40 degree weather. I have a "dog house" built onto the outside of my house which is open on both ends with a plastic strip door on the outboard end and this pet door on the inboard end to keep winds

out. This door replaced an older brand that was actually larger than this door and I only have a couple of Border Collie mixes from a shelter. I'm not sure if larger dogs would be happy with this product. Shelter dogs are the best.

The good news is there are two clear flexible flaps one on each of the two telescoping sections to provide additional weather protection. On several occasions the magnets on the two flaps stuck to each other rather than returning to there home positions, thereby holding the door open allowing wind to enter the house. This may have something to due with the size of my dogs, the speed at which they use the door and temperature which can affect flap flexibilty.

This is a real nice $69.95 item. As a business owner, I'm all in favor of profits for all involved in the product. This item seems to have plenty.

After 2 years of light use, the flaps failed. Flaps are about $50 each.

This is a warm climate, older dog.
