Can You Lock the Mesh Patio Pet Door?

Modified on Fri, 18 Jul at 2:19 PM

The Mesh Patio Pet Door is not a lockable unit. It’s designed as a temporary, pressure-mounted solution and does not connect to or integrate with your sliding door’s existing locking mechanism.

To fully secure your home, simply remove the pet door insert from the track and close your sliding door completely to re-engage the original lock.


Tip: For added security while the pet door is in place, consider using a Sliding Door Bar Lock. This acts as a secondary locking solution, helping to restrict access even when the door can't be fully closed.


If a lockable option is important for your setup, we recommend exploring our Glass Patio Pet Door, which is designed to offer a more secure fit and is compatible with most sliding door locks
