Removed the plastic liner and replaced it with 1/8" birch panel. I guess there is no possibility of a defect in manufacturing with Ideal. Next response was "No further advise than what I sent before".

Wrote back and repeated that I had done all that. Emailed help and got a quick response with "advise", which was to view the video's and follow the instructions provided. But the inside lower right corner had a 1/4" gap that ran all the way to the top of the liner and would hang up the inner flap. Everything squared, lined up, and flush to the inner frame.

It took him about 4-5 days to figure the door out. I have a 3 year old and a 4 month old Doberman Pinscher. Absolutely no air escapes but is still easy enough to open for my small cat to go thru.

I have a super large dog who runs thru full speed so I needed a tough dog door. I even glued indoor outdoor carpet on the floor of it to stop my fur babies from slipping as they like to run through it. Make sure that you frame out the bottom of the wall for stability. The old extension kit was not built as solid as this one.

If you plan ahead and cut the bolts, tie everything down behind the door, and measure several times This could be a great product but I think it was an afterthought and they send extra long bolts for seemingly no reason. It seems like a nice idea but not I have 2 small holes on the outside where the screws punched through because the plastic is thin around that area. The original door comes with screws that are too short to connect a standard home wall and this extension kit comes with screws that are too long so you can expect to have to grind off about 1-3 inches from the screw. The walls are pretty thin as well and within the giant hole I cut out in my wall I have a small bundle of wires that presses up against the wall causing it to bulge slightly which in turn causes the flap to get stuck on it. The parts that are designed to break off are actually pretty hard to break off and it tkaes about 20 mins to slowly bend them and break them to you dont have any sharp corners and the perforated parts go around corners that are especially thick and difficult to cut around I ordered the first one and found that I broke too much off and had to order a second one. The pet door has been installed for 2 years now and I have never had any. I originally thought this piece was supposed to lie behind/under the door but it rests inside it.
