They are only compatible with channel style tracks and will not fit into monorail sliding glass doors.

    Custom Height Add-On Extension - If your sliding glass door track is not accommodated by one of these height ranges, you can special order a panel with a custom made height extension to fit your track. If you already have the Ideal "Fast Fit" Panel, but it is too short for your slider you can also purchase just the Ideal "Fast Fit" Height Extension.

    Replacement Flaps and Parts  - Can be found at Ideal "Original" Replacement Flaps or you can get both the flap and the plastic frame at Ideal "Fast Fit" Replacement Flap Assembly.

    Better than expected

    Scott was amazing to work with, the door is better than expected due to the height of the sliding glass door so the extension piece was longer than Scott had liked but unable to use a smaller door opening I tried it! And it is great just careful when taking it out…

    This is a great door but..

    I have used this door for years! I’ve owned 2 actually, they do eventually get worn out. Unfortunately, I have changed houses and my doors are taller (94.5”) and I cannot get this door in a height that will fit and it is currently unavailable anyway. Way to get replacement parts and install when the dogs break something. Ultimately I recommend this door as it is easy to install and my boys and their predecessors loved it.

    The Purr-fect Solution.

    This solves the problem. The cat can come and go without me. A HUGE special shout out to Scott, who in addition to answering all my questions, patiently stood by through a delivery drama. Thank you

    Good for Lowering Step Over (Staff Review)

    Nice option for lowering the step-over to accommodate small or elderly pets with limited mobility.
