PetDoors.com Screen Pet Door Conversion Kit, White Tape, Magnetic Closure

PetDoors.com Screen Pet Door Conversion Kit turns an existing framed screen into a cat or dog opening, using the screen’s own mesh and a magnetic closure.

• Custom-height flap — tailor the opening to your pet’s size.
• White protective screen tape — helps reinforce the screen around the new opening.
• Two sets of magnets — guide the flap back into place after your pet passes through.
• Written and video instructions — support a do-it-yourself installation.
• Deluxe kit option — adds screen, spline and a spline tool.

This conversion kit creates a pet passage without replacing your existing framed screen. It is made for homes where cats or dogs need access through a screened window, door or enclosure, while the screen flap closes behind them. Because the flap uses the screen mesh already in place, it is lightweight for older or more timid pets to push through.

Will the kit fit my screen and pet?

The kit is designed for standard framed screens up to 36 inches (91.4 cm) wide, with a pet flap up to 32 inches (81.3 cm) tall. You choose the flap height for your pet, while the screen frame determines its width. This allows the opening to be set up for cats, small dogs or larger dogs within those limits.

It can be fitted to framed window screens, hinged or sliding door screens, fixed screen panels, screened porches, Florida rooms and outdoor cat enclosures. The kit is intended for framed screens, so the frame is what gives the opening its available width.

• Adjust the flap height to suit your pet and the screen.
• Use the existing framed screen as the base for the conversion.

What comes with the conversion kit, and how long does installation take?

The kit includes white premium protective screen tape, two sets of lightweight magnets and printed instructions with video guidance. Installation in the screen frame takes about 20–30 minutes. The tape is rainproof, and the kit includes 18 feet (5.5 m) to accommodate most standard screens and pet heights.

The deluxe kit also includes additional screen, spline and a spline tool. These added materials are for completing the screen work involved in the conversion. The standard conversion components create the magnetic opening using your existing screen mesh.

• Protective tape helps reinforce the screen around the cut opening.
• Printed and video instructions walk you through the DIY process.
• The deluxe option adds screen-repair materials and a spline tool.

How does the magnetic screen flap work?

Your pet pushes through the lightweight mesh flap, and the magnets bring it back into place. The low-profile magnetic closure operates with little noise and seals against wind. Because the flap is made from the existing screen mesh, it moves easily rather than requiring a rigid pet-door panel.

The magnetic closure is designed to keep the flap shut after use. Unlike hanging doorway curtains or screen enclosures that rely on adhesive hook-and-loop strips, this conversion uses magnets to close the screen opening. It also maintains the integrity of the screen door seal while giving your pet a separate passage.

• Quiet magnetic closure helps avoid startling noise during use.
• The flap returns to its closed position after your pet passes through.
• The screen remains the barrier around the pet opening.

This kit suits cat and dog owners who want to adapt an existing framed screen for pet access, including households with older or more timid pets that benefit from a lightweight mesh flap. It is a screen conversion rather than a replacement door, and its width is limited by the frame. For a pet-sized opening in a compatible framed screen, it combines adjustable flap height with a magnetic close.
