Here is a dodgy photo, I'm at work so only have this one that I pulled off facebook.

The dog door is on the right of the sliding door. I was cleaning so had the dogs outside and had the sliding panel in the dog access part so they couldn't use it. Otherwise you take that bit out and they come and go through the bottom half of the door.

PS - Don't look at the nose art on the glass - thats why I was cleaning :laugh:

I have one of these, bought it off ebay. Possibly some of the best money I've spent seeing as though when the door isn't in Kenzie would like to go out every time I sit down!!!

I take mine in and out each day (she doesn't get to use it while I'm at work at the moment it's just for when I'm home), and it takes a total of about 15 seconds to do that! When I eventually get a bolt put on the door so I can lock it when I'm not here she might get more use of it.

And the best bit is if I move house the door comes with me so it's an investment in the door not the house!!!

We are in a rental and have a Pig In Mud door too. No altering of the door frame except to unscrew the latch receiver from the wall to put it on the dog door and put it back when you leave. We've only had a few problems with the magnetic strip coming off but the manufacturer has been really good about replacing that free of charge. Would highly recommend them.

Hey d, when you have a sec would you mind PMing me the website where you found it? That's a great price! Actually you could probably even post the website, I dont think that would breach forum rules (unless they also sell non-pb dogs of course).

Thanks!

Oh and good luck with the move :)

Here is the website I found when I was googling, i'm just in email contact with them to see which size i'd need for mine http://www.temporarypetdoor.com.au/

as for the move :banghead: I hate moving but it will be good when its all done :cheer:

I looked on Bunnings Website but I couldn't find any.. I think the website I did find is the same one as yours :-)

I think it could be, I don't know how many Brisbane companies run temporary pet door companies :thumbsup:

Ah I see. I was hoping the extra panel wouldn't fall out.

So does it 'lock' in like a normal door latch would?

they look like this (although the one I'm looking at isn't all glass) and locks into your normal doors, see the panel with the doggy bit at the bottom?

I love this idea of being able to just take it down when it doesn't suit me ie storms etc! never thought of that :thumbsup:

The Bunnings ones you actually have to fit in to the wooden door which means cutting a section of it out. They don't have them in their website though as I was only just trying to find them the other day to order a replacement flap. The doors they stock are made by Petz Plus.

No snook these are temporary so no cutting, you open the sliding door and the doggy door slots in, in between the door and the frame, you can step over it I guess if the opening is big enough..

I don't think you can step over it?? Mine is a full height piece of door that slots into your door track. So you can use it in the glass door in the summer or sliding door in the winter. The bottom half of the door is the dog part and the top half is glass.

I would imagine that if you can step over it you may as well leave the door open?

I think I probably saw that it looked like nothing there but it was probably a glass panel confused.gif.. I can't find the site I first saw.. Your right though that doesn't make sense rofl1.gif
