My sliding glass door is a standard 36" x 76" high. I noticed this Fast Fit Pet Patio Door is an 80". Can this be cut off to fit my door.

The door height is 80" maximum with a spring held feature that allows adjustment down to about 77-5/8". I think cutting it to make it shorter would compromise its structure. You would be better off finding a shorter door.

Thank you for the question! This door is adjustable for sliding doors 76 3/4 " to 81". For your measurement, you will want http://amzn.com/B005CV5IJU.

It fits into the frame where your sliding glass door also resides. Your sliding door will no longer be able to close all of the way, it will rest up against this insert. We put additional weather stripping on the side of our door to make it "seal" better (some stripping comes with the door). Also, the locking latch on your door won't work anymore, so we use a large wooden dowel rod to "lock" the sliding door when we are away. It might sound like a pain, but we've been pretty happy with the door and how well it works for our dog.

Well it fit the length and width of the door I replaced it in. But the top tabs that slide in to the grove actually will pop out of the grove on one side after a few in and outs from the dog. I took it apart and added some shim pieces to help keep the tabs 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.

We have them over our sliding glass doors which are about 6'+ wide. The length isn't a problem because they allow for you to cut them to length and then attach the bottom weight.

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.

The gate is designed to use with a sliding glass door. Do you have a sliding glass door on your porch??

the Patio door unit is 11.5" across, and the hole is 11.5" high X 7" across. Pleae note the unit is for a 96" door heigth.

Yes it should, you will be adjusting the length yourself to what you need at home, fairly simple procedure. As for the width, mine is covering a 6' patio door and works fine.

Im not certain the exact size, but it was enough to fit a standard height screen door. I also ended up having to trim it down a bit to fit.

I just bought this. The house we are renting already had. Doggy door in the sliding glass door, but rendered the door useless. This is better in my opinion. Just make sure its the right width. And I had to make a small landing for the pups because the window is higher off the ground on the outside.

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.

hmmm. I would guess it would have fit a 36" door. It comes so that you can cut it to fit any door. I have it in a 32" bedroom door. works well except it collects cat hair.

I think I expanded mine to 72in, it comes in 4 pieces (5 with the door gate). I dont see why not? I think you can use any amount of pieces you want. I had to use all 4. You can adjust all of them. So im almost positive it should work for you.

I have very old sliding glass doors and they fit them perfect. I think they would fit most sliding glass doors in my opinion after installing several of them. I don't know about Pella in particular but I don't see why it wouldn't.

Yes. The difficulty will be in cutting through the door. There are cutout dimensions provided with the pet door. Also, there is a sliding door that locks in place over the pet door. A big plus when you want to restrict the use of the door.Unless you're really good at cutting through metal and doing so without tearing your fingers up, I'd recommend having a handyman who has the proper tools and knowledge cut the hole. Mine cost $50 to cut through a steel door.This is the best pet door on the market. The fact that it has a clear door makes it possible for your pet to see outside before going through the door. The other company's door is opaque, so your pet can't tell if it's walking into a safe area or not. Yes. The difficulty will be in cutting through the door.
