May I use this with a dual pane sliding patio door or should I consider the other model with dual pane glass?

Hi Massoud,I believe your best bet will be to consider the dual panel glass.Sandra

I had no problem with the fit in a sliding glass door, but just a note... I purchased two locks of this brand (slightly different models) and both eventually literally exploded out of the door while attempting to pull the key back out after locking. I wouldn't recommend it.

Although the screen is pretty tight when you open it I don't know if I would use it for a sliding window. It may not stay in place when extended. I would look for a screen made specifically for a sliding window. It really is a great screen and it does keep the rain out. I use them in my attic windows so I can get some air circulating and I don't have to worry about closing the windows if it is raining.

Anyone ever install infront (outside of house) of the sliding door. Where your sliding screen would be. This would allow your glass sliding door to shut as normal. I picture adding my own brush sweep along the vertical edge to help with air lose. Comments and pictures would be helpful.

My patio door is not a Pella but the Handle fit very good on my door and is of a very good quality. Most doors are standard and if the holes are the proper distance it should work just fine.

Glass patio doors? I have not tried this. I would not think so if there tends to be a moisture build up or if the temperature fluctuates a lot and remember it is a one sided print. I've had it on my wall for months and it's still perfect.

Since sliding doors design vary based upon manufacturer it's hard to accurately answer this request. However, if you can adhere both items of this product side by side - one being stationary, the other being the movable piece, then it will work just fine. In other words, when the sliding door is in the closed position, you must be able to install this product in such a way that when the door is opened, the two pieces "break contact" with one another thereby sounding the very loud and high-pitched alarm. Hope this helps.

I attached the unit directly to a tub with no encumbrances and one side butted up against a wall. I don't believe it would work with a sliding glass door without disabling the door. We also installed grab rails on the opposite side and the rear wall.

I think so why not? I have it on my door.My door is one of those doors with glass in the middle of it, not a sliding glass door. Thats where I have it, on the oval glass part . It goes off when my paperboy hits the bottom of the wooden part of the door.Works very well.

Yes, you can still use your sliding glass door while the pet panel is in place.

As the opening for my sliding glass door was 96 inches, mine is located in my screen track rather than my door track. Where we live in California, this is generally optimal in that we would prefer the door open but the screen closed. The top of the dog door slides down a little allowing it to then release back up into the door track. As our door is deeper in the frame, the slide down did not go far enough for us to angle it into the door frame, but it was enough to get it in the screen frame. Once there the sliding section at the top can be tighted in place.

I don't think this lock is for double hung windows. At least that is not what I have. I have sliding ones.

Yes, the way it mounts onto the door takes into account the side, so both sides take the same part. The sliding doors both use the same part, and its interchangeable.

The screen attaches to the where it will be placed by adhesive backed velcro. As long as you have a flt surface to attach it to it will work fine. Be sure to note that in the measurements: the screen is 35 inches and if your opening is also 35 inches it will be too short. Part of the screen width is a boarder that must overlap to the edge where it will be mounted. I was able to successfully attach it to the sliding glass door after repositioning it to the velcro a few times.

It is supposed to. We had half doors with glass sliding windows and it seemed like it would work with some adjustments to the door. We ended up purchasing full hard doors and the hard top fits great with those.

I wouldn't use this particular switch on a sliding door. The reason is because it is spring-loaded, and it is likely that it would just push your sliding door open rather than keep the switch in the "off" position.

We have 2 of these gates. It is designed for a glass sliding door rather than a doorway. You need to be able to open the door so there is a gap of about 2 inches more than the gate width so 26 inches, then close the door a little to look the gate in place. It is a great product. However, you need a conventional gate for a normal doorway.
