Oh my gosh!
I wish I could give this 10 stars! I LOVE this door. I wish I had done it so much sooner. I have a 65 lb golden retriever and she has no issues going in and out. My dogs quickly caught on how to use it the same day I installed it. I will say, if you are like me and have stairs immediately on the other side of the screen door, rather than installing 2.5 inches above your dogs shoulder height, maybe consider installing lower. It is sometimes hard for my senior, 50 lb mutt who has issues seeing and with his hips, to get out the door and hit the stair perfectly. I think if I had installed a little lower he wouldn’t have to list his back paws as high to fit through. After reading other reviews I also bought some epoxy to help with the seal and I am glad I did. My screen door also needed repair and I opted for some pet proof material which is a thicker material. I believe because it was thicker it prevented the doggy door from being ableTo click together completely. That is where the epoxy really came in handy. It is holding it together and the screen taut. Others complained about the lock, and maybe I just haven’t had mine long enough, but the lock works good enough. It prevents the door from swinging back and forth when it’s windy outside. Sometimes the door is stuck slightly open, but it is not so far open to create an issue, the magnet just sometimes doesn’t grab it. Overall, I cannot say enough good things about it!

Good value and lasts several years
This is the second time I've purchased one of these. The first one lasted about 4 years before finally gave out. Will definitely be buying another one when this one wears out.

Looks good!
The media could not be loaded. Works so far. I like the door but I think it would have been better to spline the screen into the frame before screwing it together. Hardest part was removing my patio screen door. Overall I think it's a good product and the large size works fine for my 70 pound Lab. Seems well built and it's made of tougher materials than i thought it would be. The wind is able to push the flap part in or out a bit sometimes but eventually the magnet catches and it closes fine. The locking tabs won't keep anything in or out so do not rely on those at all. They hardly catch.

Stiff swinging flap.
Fairly easy to install but we added some duct tape around outer edges for extra support on screen. One of our dogs doesn't like to use it cause he's used to flexible rubber flaps and not having to step up and over to access. This one has a metal frame and stays stiff when swinging open. I guess it feels different on his back during access. Takes additional training and reward.

For $4.87, this pet door is dirt cheap. But expect it to last no more than a few months.
Update 09/11/2017 - downgraded to 1 Star.I definitely cannot recommend this door if you have active dogs like mine. My 18 lb. Shih Tzu / Border Terrier loves to fly through the door at full speed and as a result, he's knocked out the swinging inner door not once, not twice, but 3 times, each time necessitating the purchase of a complete new PetSafe door. The door design is flawed. The swinging door swivels on 2 1/8" plastic pins. If the pins were made of steel instead of cheap, low strength plastic, the pins would not break.It was already a flawed design. As I mentioned in my original post below, the 2 piece PetSafe door frame will separate under constant use. There is absolutely no way that the door frame pieces will stay together press fit together with a layer of window screen sandwiched in-between. When the dogs come and go through the door, they are exert a small amount of force on the door frame in either direction and eventually the frame will separate. The only solution is to drill holes through the frame and bolt the pieces together with screws and nuts.I've bought my last PetSafe Pet Screen Door. I'm moving onto something else because it simply is not designed to handle the rigors exerted upon it by an active dog.Original Review (2 stars).I bought two PetSafe Pet Screen Doors knowing that it was a flawed design having read most of the negative reviews of the product. However, for the measly sum of $11.87 X 2 to replace 2 shredded patio screen doors, thanks to my overzealous small dogs, I decided to give the product a try, knowing the best alternative metal screen pet doors cost 10 to 20 times more.For my installation, I installed the PetSafe doors concurrently with new pet resistant vinyl coated screens which are thicker and stronger than typical screens. As I thought would happen, PetSafe doors would not mount properly on my pet resistant screens. The PetSafe doors features 2 plastic frames which feature tongue and groove channels. When the 2 frames are pressed together, the channels should clamp together tightly onto the screen, thus securing it in place. The frames rely on friction to keep from separating, but pet resistant vinyl screens are simply too thick to allow the doors to be installed as per the instructions. So I created my own set of instructions:1. Go to the hardware store and buy 8 machine screws and nuts - size #8 x 3/4" long. Also buy #8 flat washers and lock washers. If you don't already have a drill bit to match the #8 screw diameter, buy one now. If you don't have a drill, maybe you should not be attempting this project. Also purchase 5 - 2" inch nails that are the same diameter as the #8 machine screw.2, Tape the frames together with masking tape so that when you drill the holes, the frames don't separate. Drill 8 holes, 1 on each corner and 1 each at the mid-point of all 4 sides.3. Face the screen interior side up. Take the interior side frame and place it onto the door or window screen in the position you desire. Measure the spacing if you don't trust your eyeballs. Use masking tape to tape it to the screen so it won't slide around.4. Take the 4 nails and push it through the 4 corner holes and through the screen mesh.5. Take the other frame and mount it on the other side of the screen mesh, using the 4 nails to align the 2 frame together.6. Take the 5th nail and push it through one of the open holes, through the mesh, and through the 2nd frame. Wiggle it around slightly. Because the screen mesh is tightly woven, we need the nail to expand the hole enough for a #8 screw to pass through it. Remove the nail after the drill hole is clear of all obstructions.7. Take 8# - 3/4" machine screw and flat washer and insert it into the hole. On the other end, secure it with a lock washer and nut. Thread it part way but do not tighten yet.8. Do the same for the remaining 7 holes.9. Once all the screws and nuts are mounted, tighten them down, but do not over tighten. Keep in mind that the frames are plastic and could crack from excessive pressure.10. Using a sharp utility blade, cut the hold for the screen. After the hole is cut, swing the door to see if there is any leftover screen material sticking out that prevents the door from swinging freely. If there is, then use the utility blade to clean it up.Optional: There are 2 plastic pins at bottom of the swinging door. One of my dogs likes to use his paw to push the door open, but in so doing he often inadvertently locks the swinging door. I decided to remove the locking pins by holding the door up, extending the pins, and cutting them off with the utility blade.Considering the screw and nut was invented back around 400 BC, I have no idea why PetSafe abandoned it while designing these doors. Did they suddenly decide they were no longer useful?I've attached a picture of my Pet Safe Door as installed after modifications. It's not pretty, but the door swings properly and combined with the pet resistant screen, it's mounted securely. Considering these doors probably cost no more than a dollar in manufacturing costs, if it lasts more than a year baking in the hot So Cal sun, I'll be thrilled. So if you encounter problems installing these doors, hopefully I've provided an idea on how to make it work.At $11.87, Amazon's special deal price, it's woth buying. At it's normal price of $22 - $25, I would definitely evaluate other brands to see if the installation is any better.

Works great
Very happy with this screen door. Easy to install (with two people), and works great for our two small pups.
