This is fantastic. I am thinking of making one myself. BUT, here's an idea. Make the vinyl overlap the doggy entrance/frame, then use magnets where the frames meet the vinyl. That way they snap closed every time and the vinyl cover doesn't flail around when not in use.

@Saúl Hernández Toloza Most screen doors are made of a metal so test out some magnets to double check that they will work for your screen door frame. If not, make the plastic cut longer and get a small bar a couple inches shorter then your opening, roll the plastic around the bar, glue it, and it'll act as a weight to keep it closed when not in use.

Too funny! I had been trying to decide the best way to make a lightweight, but sturdy dog door for the screen before it was too late. I didn't have enough time to think about it before my dogs made their own "dog door," just as your pup did! We put peanuts out on the deck for the squirrels and it was just too much for the dogs to watch, as the squirrels just sat there staring at them eating their peanuts knowing that the dogs couldn't get at them. I think I actually saw one of the squirrels stick his tongue out at poor "Winnie and Buster". Pups, 7 mo. old, just finally snapped and blew right through the screen one day! I think that your application is extremely efficient and appropriate for a lightweight screen door....(I was a construction inspector... You passed with flying colors! Lol) Thank you so much for sharing!

This is really great! Really, really. My breaker trips every time I have the AC on, and I need to find a solution to keep my pets safe before the Oklahoma heat really kicks in. Daytime highs can reach over 100° for weeks at a time and I have no doubt that my kiddos would cook if that happened while I was gone for the day. This solution is well within reach. Thank you for sharing!!

what about some very low power magnets at the bottom of the flap. you'd have to put some ferrous metal where they contact, but you might be able to just glue some steel washers to the door and then magnets on the plastic, or vice versa.

I forgot to add one thing. Magnets at the bottom of the vinyl/ screen flap along with magnets on the bottom of the frame of the door. You can get really lightweight magnets that will be just enough to stop the flap and seal it at the bottom so the flap will just stop right there as they come in or out. It's the same way they make them for regular dog doors. You can even find them at the dollar store, sometimes the fabric store certainly has them and I'm sure places like Home Depot and Lowe's, as well. It keeps the flies out!

Nice job. My approach, although similar, involved a frame within a frame. The outer was fixed (glued and screwed), but the inner was hinged with magnets mounted to the bottom of the fixed frame, The swinging screen had a small diameter metal rod along the bottom edge for the magnets to grab and secure. Using the heavy duty pet screen, as did you, my cats can push through the magnetic clasps and the screen (door) returns tightly to its vertical orientation to keep insects out. I haver an additional opaque plexiglass panel that stays lock up and aways from the opening, but can be swung down and locked to keep the cats in and the critters out.

Can you post the specs for the framing? Also I noticed the inside wood frame isn’t as long as the outer so it’s just glue holding the inner frame to the outer? Which glue? Finally what are the connectors used at the top of the frame where the screen and vinyl are hanging?

So let’s say I wanted to put this into a screen area not a door, a square area from a sunroom. If I just put the wood frame inside and out it should keep the rest of the screen in tact for me to cut out the doggy door opening?

Juran Johnson Lancaster If you frame around the cut the screen should stay tight for you. I think a sandwiching glue or construction adhesive helps keep it from coming lose over time.

Pauline, I doubt it. I don't think you need to do it exactly the way he did it. A Different wood configuration will work. For example you can just overlap the thin lath but it won't be as clean a job as his.
