        It works as intended. Wish the flap is a bit more transparent so little dog would see through it.

        Thank you for sharing this positive feedback with us, Edgar! We do not currently offer a clear version of flexible pet door flaps but you can typically help pets get over any apprehension they may have by spending a few sessions each day training them. It is best to approach the beginning of training by propping the flap open so that they can see straight through. If they are food motivated you can stand on the other side with treats or if they prefer toys you can use that method as well to coax them through from the other side. Once they are a little more comfortable with it you can gradually lower the flap and they will typically begin to use it on their own.

        We hope this information is helpful. Should you have any further questions, please feel free to give us a call at 1-800-732-2677. PetSafe

          Good product. Previous use on door led to buying again for new door. However, following installation instructions for cutting spacers would have resulted in poor fit. I was able to get exact fit using my own measurements rather than “ door thickness + 7/8 inch” as instructions stated.

          Thank you for your review. We're sorry that this pet door didn't meet your expectations.

          We would like to be sure that your closing panel is put on properly so that it is most secure. When you put on the closing panel, please be sure to press forward on the panel until you hear a very distinct "snap" sound. This tells you that the closing panel is properly in place. Then, to remove the panel, grip the vertical sides with your fingers and press in on the face of the panel with your thumbs bending the plastic. This will let the panel lift away.

          If you do not prefer the snap-on closing panel, you can get a slide-down closing panel in our Aluminum Pet Door which you can find here:

          We're so sorry for any misunderstanding about our use of nylon screws, Edith! Please understand that these screws are used to maximize the longevity of your pet door. Nylon screws are able to move with the door as it shifts due to time and weather; metal screws would put undue stress on the frame and damage it over time. We do apologize for any confusion.

          If you have any further questions about your door and why pieces are included or recommended, please reach out to us! Our number is 1-800-732-2677, and our hours are Monday through Friday 8 A.M.- 8 P.M. EST and Saturdays 9 A.M.- 5 P.M. EST. PetSafe

          We are sorry to hear you are experiencing difficulty removing the closing panel for your Plastic Pet Door, Saddy! When removing the panel or placing the panel on the door, start with a hand on each handhold and then use your thumbs to press into the middle of the panel. This will bend the handles out enough that you can then release its grip from the door frame.

          If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly at 1-800-732-2677. We are always happy to help! PetSafe

          Plastic screws are cheap and strip out or break. I had to go and get good quality steel screws. I would suggest you include weather stripping to go underneath also. Door is a bit noisy and leaks air real bad when the wind blows. Not a project for a beginner.

          We're so sorry that you had difficulty installing this door, Floyd, and we do apologize, too for any misunderstanding!

          It is critical for the longevity of your door to use the high quality, sturdy nylon screws included with this door. This is because these screws are able to provide flexibility, adjusting with the natural shifting of the frame over time due to temperature changes and time, etc. If metal screws are used, the frame of the door will become damaged over time due to excess strain. We're so sorry for any confusion.

          We would love to discuss the current situation with you directly to see what tips may help increase wind resistance for your situation. So that we can do so, please reach out to us. Our number is 1-800-732-2677, and our hours are Monday through Friday 8 A.M.- 8 P.M. EST and Saturdays 9 A.M.- 5 P.M. EST. PetSafe

          Splurge for the extreme weather pet door. At our last house I installed the extreme weather door and it was so easy to install and sturdy. This door...it is like the dollar store version of a good product. The screws are thin plastic. Plastic!! The lining for inside your door is thin plastic that you have to cut to fit and then slide in as you are trying to keep the two sides of the door together. Not to mention you are then trying to thread through the plastic screws while holding the inside part of the door, outside part of the door and four flimsy plastic pieces that line the hole. It’s a nightmare.

          Like the petsafe doors. This one works fine. 2 negatives on this newer freedom model. The flap is pebble textured for privacy. That's nuts. Dog needs to see what's on either side. The spacers are difficult to work with during install. Like my classic model much better with the clear flap. Much easier on the pups.

          Thank you for your review.

          This pet door is only supposed to have one vinyl flap. If you want a door with two vinyl flaps, you would be more interested in either our Wall Entry Door or our Extreme Weather Pet Door. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at 1-800-732-2677, and we'll be happy to help. PetSafe
