Taking the door off is a good idea - being a 105 lb female, I may not be able to handle the door by myself... I'm putting in a larger door (there is an existing smaller door) - so I might just sit on a stool and enlarge the hole with my reciprocating saw. Great video!

That is a really good plan! Measure the hinge locations. It will be extra work for you if they do not line up. You might check with your landlord and see if you can put a dog door in you current door if it is not all glass. If you are going to be there a while in may be worth you paying for. As a landlord I like the idea of the dog letting themselves out, less accidents in the home.

I suggest using a square if you are not a carpenter with experienced eyes to mark cut lines to make sure you don't end up with something that is not level or plumb. Caulk the gaps. As far as taking the door off it depends on the weight and the strength/health of the person. I wanted to see how a dog door worked on a raised panel door. This will take the average person longer than 20 minutes most likely to get ducks in a row and cleanup, etc. Don't be in a hurry. Thanks.

I never want to be in a hurry to do a job or feel under pressure. That’s why I charge enough for it to be worth my time. Otherwise I’d go work for someone else. And always mark on the OUTSIDE of your doggy door flange. A little bigger wont hurt. But trying to shave an 1/8 of an inch or more is a hot mess you don’t want to deal with. Cut it right the first time. As far as taking the door off ? Absolutely. Metal flakes are going to fly every where. I get 150 to install a doggy door. If someone asks why so much? I say when you wreck your door it will be 300.00 for me to rehang a new one. That usually seals the deal.

What size doggie door would you recommend for a female black lab? She’s so tiny right now at 7 weeks but I know she will get much bigger. If installing the door now it would have to be very low as she wouldn’t be able to jump through yet.

Alexandra Jimenez I would talk to your Vet and see how much she should end up weighing and buy the door according to the weight. The doors are sized by the dogs weight. I would just guess on the proper height.

Can anyone refer me to a dog door installation video that shows the dog actually using it after it's been installed?

Seems like it’s a little bit high up for a medium size dog.

You put that way to high off the deck for a 30 lb. dog. The top of the hole should be about an inch and a half above the dog's shoulder.

This door was made of metal, so you lost me with the cardboard.
