FAQ

How did you pick these dog doors for sliding glass doors?

Will a sliding glass dog door fit my door?

Measure the height of the track from the bottom rail to the top rail before you shop, then pick a panel whose adjustable range covers that number. Measure your dog's shoulder width and height too, since the flap should clear the shoulders without the dog ducking. Most panels sit in the track with the existing door closed against them, so you lose a few inches of walkway.

Should I measure before I buy?

Yes. Measure first and compare your numbers with the size chart on the product page, since sizing varies by brand.
