How does it mount for a sliding glass door?

after you've put the screen on the rod (which is very easy.like putting a curtain on a rod.)you just take the rod and screen to your slider and fit it in. the rod is spring loaded and it fits tight. oh! also make sure you get the magnetic closer going the right way so the screen clicks together properly. this screen has been a life saver for our sliding glass window door. we love it.

It's a tension rod, and pretty stable once up, so if you can put it between the door that doesn't move and the side of the outside opening, I think it would stay as long as you have about an inch square of flat surface at each end of the rod. I hope this helps.I also want to say that we used ours last winter (in Phoenix that's when you leave doors open), and we were very pleased with the quality - surprised even. We rolled it up and put it away for the summer, but I see no reason why we won't be able to use it year after year.

I have checked the product description and reviews, and no where did I find any information about WHERE to mount the screen. Mine is mounted inside the frame of my 32 inch door. I would have to see a sliding door to answer accurately, but from what I remember the extension rod would fit inside the frame of the sliding door. I have rental property that has sliding doors, so will check and possibly add to this later. I clicked on "what did we miss?" in the product description and suggested more details of installation.

Not sure. I guess the tension rod could go between the door jamb where the slide opening is and the top of the door of the non-sliding part. Or, you could try using some alternate method (Velcro or little tack-nails?) to mount it to the outside jamb.

I can't even imagine cutting the glass and then securing it with screws. I'd have to refer you to a glass shop. This works fine on our 2-inch thick door. But glass? Sounds scary to me. Good luck.

I used them to secure sliding class windows from being opened. It may depend on how your mount is anchored. I suggest you contact the seller and ask them.

While it may 'fit' in the opening, it will not be secure enough with the tension resting on the sliding door (the door on the one side will not be wide enough to hold the tension 'rings' on the end of the screws). I would not advise using this for a sliding door. They do make models that do fit sliding doors though - Cardinal Gates Lock-n-Block Sliding Door Gate, 30.5 x 24-Inches, White - try that link.

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.

The small sector glass shower door enclosure has center opening sliding doors. The doors slide open from the center and they connect in the middle by a full length magnetic latch to close.

Only if you don't place it right next to the frame on the stationary glass. Wherever you place it on the stationary glass, that's as far as the sliding glass will open. Follow me? ( place it an inch or two away from the frame on the stattionary glass, and that way you can still slide the moving door open a crack). Hope that helps.

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.

Hi- Nope- Has to be mounted. It has the bottom on the glass-clamp (curved bits in picture) that stick out below the glass.

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

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.

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'd say by using suction cups. But I still don't see how you could mount it exactly to the glass seeing how you would most likely have it directly on top of it.Basically you'd have to place it DIRECTLY on top of the enclosure.

We use one of ours (we have two) in the sliding glass door of our condo and it works fine. Your door would have to be opened just enough to hold the large tubing in place. I hope this answers your question.

If I remember correctly...there are 4-6 screws that hold it in place to your sliding door frame. So it isnt a quick popout but you could take the screws out fairly quickly. I personally think it needs to be screwed to the frame otherwise your slider wont be secured and anyone could pull it open

The glass is glued into the door so if this is something you were looking to do yourself then it may be difficult. I did not see an option to buy it with different glass types. The glass looks pretty good though. People that have seen it so far like it. Be careful if you want to use this as a tabletop unit as the door is too heavy and it tips. So it has to be mounted in order to avoid that. I was disappointed with that fact as it looks like it is meant to sit on the tabletop rather than mount to the wall.

We put it into a sliding glass window. I am sorry I don't have experience to know if your idea would work. Good luck.
