Default Walk-Thru Screens

anyone use these?

or the type that split all the way up for people?

i've seen them range from $20-$100 bucks so i'm looking for personal experience and recommendations.

i doubt my dogs will have any trouble using them, but i do wonder about my cat... and also the durability, should children or animals pass thru not so gracefully.

any input is appreciated.
thanks!

I bought one (the type that splits up the middle) to put between an upstairs bedroom and a second floor deck. It's great, and so far seems to be holding up (though I don't have kids or a cat.) The material used is pretty sturdy....... I got it from In the Company of Dogs (I get their catalog), and I think I paid around $50. I think the prices sound a bit better on the site you posted here, and they have more options re: size. Thumbs up, I would purchase one again.

I was thinking about getting one of the screens for my deck door because I LOVE leaving it open when I am home.

I have never heard of the walk-thru screens

Thanks for posting about them! They look pretty neat in my opinion

I ordered the one from bugoff (second one you listed) last week. I am waiting patiently! I will review it after a day or two of using it. My sliding screen door is currently leaning against my door because someone.... liked to jump on it to slide it open!

Just got mine today, puppy goes thru it fine, one of my older dogs still waits for it to be opened (my good child )
You can see it splits up the middle and has a magnet. It has velcro to attach to sides at the top and bottom. There is also an adjustable tension rod at the top and a strip of magnets at the bottom. Much better than picking the door off the deck when the puppy knocks it down!
