Could you put this on a screen door? I want to keep my cat and the squirrels on the deck from having direct contact.

The guard has a slit in it to fit differently shaped knobs. If your screen has a knob, yes. It is seriously a great find!

Depending on how wide the screen door, the Claw Guard may not cover the whole door, leaving exposed screen. It is made to protect the door jam as well as 2/3 of the rest of the door. Just check measurements. It is sturdy enough to keep the two separate. Our cats don't like it as a scratching surface either.

No not really actually you should know that it doesn't stay on my door knob,it falls off not a good item

the clawguard is 18 inches wide with a cut out hole that fits over a door knob in the center of it 7 inches from the top down I don't think it will cover only a little bit of the screen door since its protecting the frame on the door too hope that is helping you a bit

It fits on your door in two places, over the handle and through s Velcro fastener wherever you choose to place.

Probably not because the dog door frame is snapped to the existing screen which is still attached to the door. It needs screen under and around.

Would be difficult: the door has a minimum thickness owing to the screws having to have a place to go. There do exist doors made for screens, they just push through and snap together. Sorry but I do not know the brand. Keep looking is my advice, this one isn't it.

No. That is not an option on the door I have. The screen door is not solid enough and wouldn't offer the security needed.

I used it on a window. Removed the screen and raised the window. Cut a piece of plywood and painted it (yes it looks nice) and cut opening for the cat door. Then screwed the cat door into the plywood and screwed the plywood into the bottom window and bottom of window frame. Screwed the 2 windows together so they couldn't be opened by a burglar. Lastly, bought some round grey foam insulation from Home Depot to insulate the top and bottom of the windows to stop air leak. Works great.

The only way I can see to keep the cat door open permanently would be to tie it - like with little zip ties. It's welded on, so removing it isn't an option. At least not on my gate.

There is no sealant provided in the package. I installed my cat in the screen door to a sun room next to the garage. The plastic panels, inner and outer, will seal themselves to the door when the installation screws are tightened. That is assuming that the panels fit flush on the door all the way around.The cat door itself is hinges at the top and is held in place with a magnet on the bottom. There needs to be some clearance for the door to operatecorrectly. The cat door will let some AC out and bugs in.

I just put pet screen on my new screened porch. This screen is pet proof and having your cat climb on it will not hurt it. The builders that installed this screen showed me a picture of his dog climbing up the screen and that was proof for me. As far as ( no-see-ums ) I am from the south also and I haven't had the screen up that long so can't answer that one for you. I do know that the holes are very small and may deter them from getting in but I guess we'll find out next summer.

If you wanted to put more and larger windows in the top make it more airey, maybe! I have to agree with the rest of the comments/replys. I would not put my cats into it but all my cats have been indoor/outdoor cats and use an animal door which I have installed in every house we have lived in to go outside. Cats are fast learners!

No. This door would not keep any type of pet in. It does not sit flush to the frame, unless you tried to velcro the entire length of the door. Even then...there would be a space at the corners. Plus, the frame is very, very flimsy...so it wouldn't take much effort for your cat to just push right through.

Yes, it can be done. I had a carpenter cut out the hole for the door, install the cat door and then he sealed it with silicone. I have pictures of it and am trying to figure out how to post them so you can see how it was done.

i do not see why this could not be attached to a cat door... you would probably have to improvise to attach it but i do not see hwy it could not be done

Personally, I would paint to match the screen door, then screw on to the screen door's left and right side frames.... a piece of 1/4 to 3/8ths thick plywood at the bottom part of the screen door, (plywood cut to about 12 inch or so high) to the door frame. Cut out a suitably sized hole in the plywood, install/screw the outside and inside parts together, THEN cut out the excess screening inside the cat-door frame. The cat frame should hold tight onto the screening. and thr cat door frame itself will be secured in place by being screwed into the plywood.

There are 2 pieces of plastic about 2" long with a lip on the end, if you want to stop dog or cat from going in or out you slide them in the slot on the bottom of the door. There is one slot on each side of the door if you don't have them you could find or make something to work in place of them.

Yes. I purchased a screen door and there is no issues. I installed it two years ago and it's still works well and looks great.

No. The pet door is flush with the sliding screen door, so I would have to completely block off the pet door to completely close/lock the glass sliding door. (I had to drill the pet door to secure it to the slider rails to avoid some rattling.)
