Hale Universal Screen Pet Door — Dog Door for Screen Doors, Porches & Windows

The Hale Universal Screen Pet Door is the screen dog door that fits where standard screen pet doors can't. With spline channels on all four sides, this universal pet door for screens installs in the corner of your screen door — or directly in the middle of the screen mesh — with no drill holes in your screen door or window frame. It's the ideal dog door for screened porches, lanais, patio screens and screen windows, and a favorite for renters because it leaves the frame untouched.

The Screen Pet Door for Frames Over 1/2" Thick

Most modern screen doors are over 1/2" thick (usually at least 5/8"), and a standard screen pet door will not fit them. The Hale Universal Screen Model is Hale's answer: the spline and mesh hold the pet door in place on the top and one side, or on all four sides, while metal retainer clips secure the remaining sides to your existing screen frame. It is fully reversible for left or right corner installation, and its thin, sleek profile won't interfere with your sliding patio door.

Premium Hale Construction

Like every Hale Pet Door, the Universal Screen Model is made in the USA from extruded 6063-T5 aluminum with a .063" wall thickness, with a single flexible 3/16" clear PVC vinyl flap sealed by Alnico 5 magnets and 1/2" nylon pile weather stripping to keep bugs out. By default, Hale now fits its new textured/frosted flap; if you prefer the classic clear flap, just tell us in your order notes. Choose White or Black to match your screen frame, and pick from 11 standard Hale sizes — from Small Medium for cats and small dogs up to Giant for the biggest breeds. Backed by Hale's 5-year limited manufacturer warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Universal model different from the standard Hale screen door?
The standard Hale screen model needs a frame 1/2" thick or less to slide over. The Universal model has spline channels on all four sides, so it works with thicker frames and can even be installed in the middle of your screen mesh with no drilling.

Can I install it in the middle of my screen?
Yes. The Universal Screen Model can be placed in a corner or directly in the middle of the mesh, held by the spline and mesh with metal retainer clips — no drill holes needed in your screen door or window frame, which makes it perfect for renters.

Which colors does the Universal Screen Model come in?
White and Black. It is also the model to choose if you want a White Hale screen pet door.

Does the flap keep bugs out?
Yes. The flap is surrounded by 1/2" nylon pile weather stripping and held closed by strong Alnico 5 magnets, so it seals tightly after your pet passes through.

What size should I order?
Measure your pet's shoulder height and width, then match them to the Hale size chart above. The flap opening should be at least as tall as your pet's shoulders.

Is there a warranty?
Yes, every Hale pet door carries a 5-year limited manufacturer warranty.

Shipping

Hale Pet Doors are built to order in the USA and ship from Colorado via FedEx Ground. Please allow 5-7 business days for your door to be built and assembled before it ships; screen models also need additional dry time, so same-day shipping may not be available. Once your order ships, you will receive an email with tracking information.
