To determine the correct size door, simply measure the width (A) and height (B) of your pet.
(A) Measure the widest point of your pet's shoulder.
(B) Measure from the top of your pet's back (just behind their head) to the bottom of chest.
Pet door models have different size openings. Just make sure your new pet door's opening is both wider and taller than your pet's measurements to ensure they can comfortably pass through.

Well built
The dog door is great and install is a breeze. However, the wall kit is a bit finicky and does require some patience, but it is well worth it in the end. The price is definitely on the higher end, but if it last a few years, worth every dollar. Well shall see how it holds up.

Ok, but wears out fast
We thought investing in a more expensive dog door would mean it would last longer. Unfortunately we were wrong. The fur channels were falling off within a year ($15 to replace), and by year 2, the fur channels were again falling off and flaps were so warped they were useless. Total to replace $85! To replace the flaps and fur channels I might as well buy a new dog door for just a bit more!
