Thumbs up Rear window screen pass through-pet door

When replacing the rear bath window screen, I added a pass through/pet door. We use it to pass the shower wand out to use as an outdoor shower (reach in to use controls). We can also reach the sink faucet to help flush out the stinky slinky (no grey tank). At the beach, I pass the wet suits out the screen to hang up to dry. Works as a cat door too!

It is two plastic frames that snap together, cut the screen, and all done! Does not interfere with window locks! Window screen is solar screen to reduce sun and for privacy. Due to the thickness of the screen, I did have to cut the holes in the screen for the small posts that snap together the frames. ~30 minute install

Ideal Pet Products 7.25-by-14.5-Inch Pet Passage Screen Door available at Amazon.com ~$22

Love It!

Eastern South Dakota is very pretty with hills, rivers, and trees.

Slick idea!

Last cool pet door I saw, someone built a screen door to fit the side compartment and then rearranged the interior so the cat could get to the storage compartment from inside. The cat would lay in the compartment and enjoy the outdoors...safely.

Neat idea! I often wish I had access to the running water in the back when dealing with the slinky.

Now that's a good idea. I'm going to have to give this some thought.... hummmmm maybe one in the kitchen to pass *beverages* outside. But I'd first have to teach my dog to open the fridge. I know it can be done but it might take awhile.....
