Why it matters
The door snaps directly into an existing screen door, window or porch screen. A high-impact plastic frame surrounds puncture- and tear-resistant mesh; the large size adds fastening screws and sliding wind locks that resist breezes but let a dog run through.

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.
