Pros and cons
Pros
- XL size
- Three flaps
- Metal frame
Cons
- Price
- Large cutout
- Stiffer flaps
Limitations to weigh
- Measure your dog's shoulder height and widest point; the flap top should sit at least an inch or two above the shoulder, and the step-over should be low enough for seniors and short legs.
- Any flap big enough for your dog can let in wildlife, other animals and, rarely, people; lock the closing panel at night and when you are away.
- Door and wall installs mean cutting; check for wiring and studs in walls, metal or glass in doors, and rental rules before you start.
