    This product is terrible. You get what you pay for, I suppose. From the first step, which explains how to measure it out, making the template too large for the door, down to the screws simply being too big and not fitting in the door properly....a few ended up getting totally stuck and leaving us unable to use the removable sliding portion of the door because they were in the way of the track. We would return it if the screws weren't stuck, making it nearly impossible to ever get off aside from ruining the rest of our actual door.

      This store is not designed to be wall mounted I was informed that I needed to purchase a larger door with a wall mount kit which ended up costing upwards of $100.

      Response from THD-CSApr 3, 2017
      Dear Valued Home Depot Customer, We appreciate that you would have liked to wall mount our PPDS original frame small pet door, but it is correct that this door is not designed for that application. Our only pet doors that can be mounted “thru-the-wall” is the Ruff Weather series. The Ruff Weather series does have small, medium, extra large, and super large sizes available. The Ruff Weather small size is just a tad larger than the PPDS size you purchased (5x9.25 versus 5x7). Ruff Weather doors can be purchased by themselves, and we also offer them combined with a wall kit. We do sell our wall kits separately, however they are made to be used only with the Ruff Weather doors.

      Perfect size to fit my French door
      This is the only cat door I could find small enough to fit into one of the lites in my "vintage" 15-lite French door. It fits perfectly. Kitty has experience with a different type of cat door, but it didn't take him long to get the hang of operating this one, and he was using it like a pro within a few hours of it being installed. The door has a magnetic strip at the bottom which is supposed to catch the flexible flap, but sometimes it does not catch right and hangs slightly open. Even when closed, there is a slight gap between the flap and the frame (to allow the flap to swing easily.) As my cat door opens to an enclosed, screened porch, this is not such an issue for me but might allow insects to enter if it faced directly outside.

        Works fine, but not ideal for interior walls
        I wanted this for a wall in between two rooms. The supplied plastic pieces aren't long enough to go through a normal wall (they are intended to go through a thin door). I had to make a spacer tunnel out of corrugated sign plastic to go between the two supplied plastic pieces. The tunnels from Ideal Pet Products which are intended for exterior walls and are the same width are a different height, and csan't be used with this product. Still, once I solved that issue it has been working fine.

          Small plastic frame pet door with separate slide in door closure
          The door looks great and is perfect for my cats. I was a little worried that my huge 18 pound cat might not be able to use it but he has no problem coming and going. Glad i chose the small size. I can't say how easy it was to install since I had it installed by the company who installed my new garage door but didn't hear any complaints. I choose this door because I like the separate slide in door closure (not the little clip that a cat learns to open). I chose this door specific for this feature because I know that my animals will be secure and won't escape when I am not home. Thank You Home Depot for continuing to offer this door.

            Great functional product
            We used it for a 12 lb cat and it's working great. Installation is fairly straight forward (hint: it tells which side of the door goes where on the back of each door side) and magnet works well to keep the flap in place. Better quality plastic, etc than others we checked out. The cats only used it for a week but the quality is great so far:)

            Repeat purchase
            We have two small Yorkshire Terriers, and this is the perfect size. I have specifically bought this brand the last two times, because I like the style and value. We did buy the most recent one because our old flap was starting to allow in too much outside air. It would be nice to be able to replace just the flap, but replacing the whole unit was an easy and reasonably priced fix.

            Solid Product
            Works great for the Kitties. Doesn't scare them when they cross through it. I wish it came in brown.
