Product Details
The Magnador Dog Doors for Doors & Kennels provide a cost-effective, simple solution for pet access, ensuring your furry friends can move freely between indoor and outdoor spaces. These versatile pet doors can be installed in various locations, from kennels and doors to lanais, dog houses, or screen porch enclosures. They have one frame, so the frame should be mounted outside and for any non-solid surface you will need to trim out the interior with a tunnel. Available in small, medium, and large sizes, the Magnador accommodates both dogs and cats, offering freedom and convenience to pets and their families.
Constructed with a chew-resistant, rigid polypropylene flap, the Magnador dog door is designed to withstand daily use by even the most enthusiastic pets. With a 2-way locking system (in-only or out-only), you can maintain control over your pet's access while keeping your home secure.
The Magnador is available in two magnet strengths: standard for temperate climates and heavy-duty for areas with rougher weather. The heavy-duty option improves insulation and weather resistance, ensuring your home stays comfortable regardless of the elements.
Choose between white and black (dark bronze) to seamlessly integrate the Magnador dog door into your space. The frame shown in the pictures is the entire dog door, giving you the option of finishing the other side as you please (if not installing in a solid surface you will need to fabricate a tunnel to finish the interior). When installing the pet door, make sure to properly caulk and frame out the area to prevent water intrusion.
The Magnador dog door is not only a practical choice, but it also offers peace of mind for pet parents who want the best for their pets. With easy installation and a sturdy, weather-resistant design, the Magnador provides a convenient solution for pet access that you and your furry friend will love.

Parts
- Installation template
- Magnador pet door
- 4 corner screws
- Mounting screws
Tools
- Masking tape
- Pencil
- Drill
- 1/8” drill bit
- Jigsaw
- Caulking
- Screwdriver
Step 1 Position the Template
- Check the installation location to make sure there is nothing that will obstruct the flap’s ability to swing freely.
- Set the height of the pet door opening according to the shoulder height of your tallest pet. Make sure the pet door will be installed on a flat surface.
- With masking tape, place the template against its exact installation location.
Step 2 Mark the Screw Positions
- Mark the screw positions and the four corners on the template with a pencil.
- Draw a line to connect all 4 corner marks.
Step 3 Make the Rough Cutout
- Drill four, 3/8" holes INSIDE of each corner of the cut-out area. Use a jigsaw to cut along the marked line which connects the four corners.
- Using the 1/8” bit, drill ¾” deep holes at each location marked from the template. Do not drill completely through the mounting area yet. These are “pilot” holes.
Step 4 Test-Fit the Door
- The Rain Hood should be on the outside for maximum weather protection. Again, check that the door panel will swing freely through the cut-out area.
- Remove the 4 corner screws from the test fit, then remove the pet door from the mounting surface to apply a bead of caulk on the back surface of the door. The caulk should be between the raised lines.
Step 5 Attach the Frames
- Re-install the Magnador by loosely twisting in the corner screws.
- Press against the mounting surface to flatten the caulk to provide a tight weather seal.
- Install the remaining mounting screws, but do not tighten.
- Check again for an unobstructed swing of the hinged door panel.
- Tighten the mounting screws.
- Tighten the remaining screws evenly to apply sufficient pressure on the caulk.

Customer Reviews
United StatesGreat Door
Over all experience was met or exceeded beyond expectations. We had an old door from a previous home owner that needed replacing. I have no idea how old the old door was. It was very easy to replace the old one with the new one. I upgraded the magnets so it closes firmer. Our dogs, Stella and Riley, love it! It is well worth the money! if it ever needs to be replaced I will happily order another one from PetDoors Thanks for making this product! Keeps us from going out on the porch in cold weather to let the dogs out and back in.
United Statesmagnets rust and fall apart
It work wonderfully for two years and then I noticed the paint cracked and chipped off around the magnet and now the magnet fell off
United StatesPerfect fit
The door is good quality and easy installation Perfect fit and operates extremely well.
United StatesGood Product
I would have given Magnador five stars, and I am on my fifth or sixth one over 30+ years, but they changed the product on me. The pictures on the web are the old flat flap, but the new ones are a waffle board. I like to cut out the middle of the flap and put in plexiglass (good for multiple dogs as well as their parents who all can see each other). Petdoors.com customer service gets five stars for helping me purchase the old flat format, but lose a star for the web site being out of date. Still good job at the other end by customer service (Scott and Cameron if I remember correctly)!
United StatesBetter than ever, even after 17 years and 2 hurricanes ....
Got whacked by Hurricane Charley in '04. The contractor hired to rebuild the screened lanai structure selected and installed your pet door. It worked great until Hurricane Ian came along in '22 ... the swing hinges, after 17 years in the SW FL elements gave up. Bought a replacement from you & it fit the old space PERFECTLY. Could've just swapped the swinging door, but that contractor didn't install the best color, so we redid the frame, too. Keep up the great work & don't change a thing!
