Lock Details
Since you cannot lock your sliding door to your panel pet door, we have provided you with alternative locking methods to secure your home:
Installing the sliding door clamp: This clamp has a screw that tightens by hand to prevent the sliding door from moving beyond the clamp’s placement. For doors manufactured with the glass slider on the inside track, the lock can usually be installed on the door’s raised track.
If you aren’t able to use the lock that comes with the panel: A great alternative to locking your sliding glass door is a Charley bar or dowel in the track. Both work off the same concept – they block the slider from opening. When engaged you cannot pull the sliding door away from the pet door panel.
Other Installation Options
Semi-Permanent Installation:
You might choose to secure the panel in your track with screws. This can be done by drilling screws at an angle in the top and bottom tracks. We recommend doing this from the outside to minimize damage to the sliding glass door frame. One-way screws will prevent tampering or removal of the panel from the outside.
Stationary Panel:
Some stationary sliding door panels can be unfastened and moved over to one side so that you can install the pet door panel between the jamb and stationary panel.
Avoid damaging your sliding glass door by checking that your door can move and that you can reinstall it properly before trying to uninstall the unit.
You will still lose space in your slider to move through, however, you will be able to use your existing sliding door lock to secure your home. Installing your pet door this way is also great in that you already have an alarm system in place.
If your sliding glass door slides on the outside track, using an alternative lock might not be possible, so this allows you to still lock your door.
NOTE: You can do the stationary panel install with the regular spring actuator method – no need to screw it in.

FAQ
|
What is the thickness of the panel? The Patio Pacific Endura Flap Thermo Panel 3e is 1" thick. It is only thick enough for a single flap, not a double flap. |
|
Does this panel work with vinyl sliders? Yes, the Endura Flap 3e is compatible with most vinyl sliding patio doors for a vinyl-pet slider that matches your existing track. At 1" thick, it is thicker than most aluminum panels, so it will fit better in a vinyl track. The track width may not line up exactly with the panel, but it is only an issue with the aesthetics, not functionality. |
|
What do I do if this does not come in size that will fit my door? If none of these sizes will fit your door, you can order a custom fit Endura Flap Thermo Panel 3e. |
|
Does this keep mice, rats, and other pests out? This is a manual door, so there is no guarantee that critters will not get in. However, the Endura Flap has incredibly strong magnets that are hard for small critters to push through and get in. Many of our electronic and microchip pet doors have locks that keep out intruder critters and are racoon-proof. |
|
How do I measure my door to get the correct height adjustment size? Measure from the innermost part of the bottom track to the innermost top part of the track. If there is a pencil railing, include that in the measurement because the panel straddles the railing. |
|
What do the Step-Over Range dimensions mean? The step-over is the part of the panel under the actual door opening. Depending on the flap size purchased, the step-over can range from 3"-7". This means that you can adjust it to any step-over within that range. So if you have a puppy, you can keep adjusting it as they grow. |
|
Will there be enough room for me to get through after the panel is installed? That depends on how wide your sliding glass door opens and how wide the panel you purchase is. Those dimensions can be found under the "Overall Panel Width" column. |
|
Can an intruder remove the Endura Flap dog door for slider from the outside? No, the thumb screws are on the inside of the panel, so once installed, the Endura Flap Panel cannot be lifted out and removed without first loosening the thumbscrews from inside the home. |
|
What locking mechanism can I use for the Thermo Panel 3e? This door comes with a secure clamp lock. Alternatively, the Endura dog and cat door for sliding glass door can be secured with a Charley Bar for added security. |
|
Does the Endura Flap dog door sliding door come with locking covers for security? Yes, these dog doors come with locking covers to ensure safety for your pet and home. Endura Flaps have locking covers that slide over them on the side facing inside your home and are made of sturdy, heavy-duty ABS plastic. Unfortunately, they cannot be used on the outside of Endura Flap Panels as an alternative. |
|
Do the Endura Flap panels require tools for installation? Endura Flap sliding glass dog doors under 80 ¼" do not require tools, making them one of the best dog doors for rental homes! However, everything above this height generally will require some tools for installation. What we call a sectional panel will be shipped in two pieces because it is so tall. Breaking the pet door for sliding door down saves the customers on shipping costs, because we are able to ship in a smaller package. The sectionals will need to be assembled with 4 hex screws and a hex wrench, all of which are provided. |
|
Is this door good in a cold winter climate? I want something effective in our winter months. Yes, the Endura Flap has been tested in -4°F. |
|
Will this take up too much space in my slider? The panel will take up some space, and some pet owners have said that they have trouble squeezing by it. An alternative option is the Pet Door Guys pet doors. |
|
How much does shipping cost? Shipping is calculated at checkout. |
Warranty
Endura Flap products have a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship under standard regular use. Damage caused by not using the product as intended, improper installation, and chewing is not covered under this warranty.

I wish there was a training door.
This door is great quality and will be a major upgrade from the old janky one come winter but dang my dogs act like the flap is a cement fortress they can't get through. For now, it's propped up with the cover door because even taking out the magnets hasn't helped. We'll get there, eventually.
United StatesDogs love their new Door!!
We are enjoying the ease of the new door. The go in and out at will. It’s Perfect!!!
United StatesPet door should come with training for your dog
Install was super easy. Now we have to get our three dogs to use it the lab has been pretty good. The dachshund is a little tuff and the coonhound is fighting it all the way. I’m up for suggestions.
United StatesEasy Installation
Excellent so far - the dogs are learning how to use it
United StatesExcellent Quality
The door itself is excellent quality and feels solid and sturdy. The weather stripping that came with it is excellent quality and thick, compared to competitors. The flap seals very well on all sides due to the magnets. The best part is that you can adjust the strength of the magnets by removing them. My puppy couldn't quite push the door open so I removed a magnet until she was big enough to use the door with the magnets full strength. I would definitely recommend this product.

The sectionals will need to be assembled with 4 hex screws and a hex wrench, all of which are provided. |

Will this take up too much space in my slider? The panel will take up some space, and some pet owners have said that they have trouble squeezing by it. An alternative option is the Pet Door Guys pet doors. |

I wish there was a training door.
This door is great quality and will be a major upgrade from the old janky one come winter but dang my dogs act like the flap is a cement fortress they can't get through. For now, it's propped up with the cover door because even taking out the magnets hasn't helped. We'll get there, eventually.
United StatesDogs love their new Door!!

United StatesPet door should come with training for your dog
Install was super easy. Now we have to get our three dogs to use it the lab has been pretty good. The dachshund is a little tuff and the coonhound is fighting it all the way. I’m up for suggestions.
United StatesEasy Installation
Excellent so far - the dogs are learning how to use it
United StatesExcellent Quality
The door itself is excellent quality and feels solid and sturdy. The weather stripping that came with it is excellent quality and thick, compared to competitors. The flap seals very well on all sides due to the magnets. The best part is that you can adjust the strength of the magnets by removing them. My puppy couldn't quite push the door open so I removed a magnet until she was big enough to use the door with the magnets full strength. I would definitely recommend this product.
