Pet Passage Doors - Dogs & Cats

If you own a cat or dog, you know how frustrating it is sometimes when you're busy and your pet needs to go outside.  There's a solution to that and it's installing a pet passage door in the screen door.  You will never need to open the door for your dog again.  This is a great weekend project and can be easily assembled in one day.  To make it easier, each pet passage door comes with a guide to use and also installation instructions.

The easiest way to install a pet passage door on the screen door is to remove it first.  Although the difficulties will vary from house to house, but most screen doors are held in place with hinges.  Simply take a screwdriver and remove all the screws from the hinges.  Since screws are tiny, make sure to put them into a sealable plastic bag so you can find them later.

After the door is out, lay it flat on the table or workbench and wipe off any debris first.  Next you will need to mark the area you will be cutting.  The pet door instructions should give you the recommended size to cut on the screen door.  Carefully measure out the hole and mark it with a pencil.

Once the marking is on the door, use a hacksaw or for quicker cutting, use a powered angle grinder that has an aluminum cutting stone.  You'll want to make the cut as clean as possible so it will be easier to install the pet door.

After that is all complete, you're ready to install the pet passage door.  Follow the direction on the pet door instructions.  After everything is in place, clean off any shavings and put the screen door back.

Pet doors are great for the busy family who happen to own a dog or cat.  You can find pet doors in 3 sizes.  Stop by Woodshop.Net for more details and information. There innovative screen and storm doors have a built in wooden door flap that can be made large or small, to accommodate any size dog – or cat.

The flap swings both ways and is magnetized, so it will close once your pet goes through. A slide bolt lock is included, so you can lock the flap either for security or to keep your pet inside or outside of your home.
