How it it installed in a sliding door?

Hi Zulma Christian, I didn't use them so much for my sliding glass door. I used them for my windows and LOVED THEM! Once in place... They are in place. I can imagine they would work out well for sliding glass doors depending how thick the walls of the track are. Take care in this - though these little gems work well all slide locks will leave marks where they have been installed. It the nature of the beast. I suppose you can slide a thin piece of wood or ??? But these are screws you are putting in place to hold your windows and doors in place. The rubber after the first or second time of usage will not be the buffer you dreamed it would be... removing it an finding a thin hard piece of plastic might be the trick. Otherwise it will put holes in the aluminum. So, Step 1 - Close your Door or Window. Step 2 - Place Black rubber piece over the aluminum track and slide it against the door or window firmly. Step 3 - Remove thumb screws and place aluminum cover over the black rubber piece... you might need to press down hard or tap into place. Step 4 - Screw thumb screws into place until secure so the slide lock doesn't move. You may need to use a pair of pliers. SIDE NOTE: It is best to use to a lock on both the top and the bottom... &lt;Note from manufacture.&gt; I hope this was of some use and good luck... Much better than using a piece of board in the bottom of your door. I did that and all that happened is they pushed it hard enough so the top opened enough that they could get in... I'm guessing why the manufacture suggest using a lock on both the top and the bottom. :)

The door has to have sliding rails that the lock can grab onto. Mine has railings that are too shallow for this lock, and yours may or may not be the same. Be sure to look both above and below.

The folding door slides on a track that has to attached by screws to the top of the door jamb. The doors are screwed in place on one side and held in place on the other side by a magnetic latch. I use it to as a kitchen door. It's fake wood but serves a purpose. The price was right for me and was simple to install.

It does slide on, so you would need enough space in the recessed area to do it.

For mine to stay in I actually ended up screwing it in to the top of the sliding door frame for stability. It definitely took about 30 min to get it situated the first time that I installed it and it is not something that i would continually move in and out. It would be possible but a big hassle. It would be much easier to insert the panel.

It is a single slide width. Sliding doors have two slides.our doors slides are too wide apart. however if installed on fixed end of patiodoor, which means taking door apart, the screen would work, opening would not be as big.

I did get the replacement flap and was please with it. Easy to install. It is my third or fourht order. I don't know anything about the sliding door to lock out the pets though.

Yes it will work. But you need to be a till handy person to do it. We installed on a wooden sliding door of the same thickness

Well what comes with the unit is a stander window adjustable to a window. You would have to build your own kit to fit a sliding Door. Now what I did was cut a 6" hole in my wall and used a dryer vent on the out side and concreted the vent from the unit. it work all year great. make sure you use a one way dryer vent that close when unit is on stand-by to keep the bugs and wind out.

This would not work for a sliding or pocket door. I'm not familiar with other models. Good luck!

All I did was hook it inside a standard door frame. There is nothing that requires tools and you can switch to any door. Super easy. Im sure there are videos on you tube on how to install. It's really just a slide into place and nothing more

First, this door is not wood. It wasn't difficult to install. About 4 or 5 screws holds the slide rail at the top in place. put 1 screw in the center or in one end of the rail, slide the folded door onto the rail . Jten the rest of the screws can be screwed in place, The non-sliding end of the door in place.HARDWARE AND GOOD INSTRUCTIONS ARE INCLUDED .

Yes like I said before it will work on any door or window. The easy way to do a sliding door is put it sideways to the way that you would with the window

The width depends on the size you order. Regardless, I am able to still use my sliding door with installed. If you are tall enough, it is very easy to remove when you need more space.

I don't think so. It's wide enough to obstruct the sliding door from opening. I wouldn't try it.

I did not search for the instructions, pre-purchase. Our sliding door is from 1953, when our home was built. My husband had to "Jerry-rig" the installation a limitless, drilling some wholes, but it went in quite easily.

The aluminium version should fit. Make sure height is correct for your sliding glass door.
