Intruders know a pet flap can be pushed in, lifted, or crawled through. Raccoons learn to lift magnetic flaps from the outside. Stray cats and wild animals wander in while you sleep. A plain plastic flap locks nothing and nobody out. The \u003cstrong\u003eWatchdog Security Pet Door Cover\u003c\/strong\u003e fixes that: it is a patented, locking \u003cstrong\u003e12-gauge steel security cover\u003c\/strong\u003e that mounts over the pet door you already own, turning your dog's doorway into a locked steel barrier whenever you want it closed — and it is made in the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Locking Steel Cover for Your Existing Pet Door\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, what this is — and what it is not. The Watchdog is a \u003cstrong\u003epet door security cover only\u003c\/strong\u003e. It does \u003cstrong\u003enot\u003c\/strong\u003e include a pet door, flap, or tunnel. It mounts over your existing \u003cstrong\u003edoor-mount or wall-mount pet door\u003c\/strong\u003e and locks down over it. Leave the steel cover open while your dog comes and goes as usual; then, at night, while you are at work, or on vacation, swing it shut and engage the built-in \u003cstrong\u003ecombination lock\u003c\/strong\u003e. No key to lose and no flimsy plastic slide-in panel — just solid steel between your home and everything outside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e12-Gauge Steel Security, Built in the USA\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery part of this locking dog door cover is steel: the frame, the cover door, and the hinges are all formed from \u003cstrong\u003e12-gauge steel\u003c\/strong\u003e, with \u003cstrong\u003ewelded barrel hinges\u003c\/strong\u003e and a frame shaped to resist prying. The mounting hardware is \u003cstrong\u003etamper-resistant\u003c\/strong\u003e — the bolts cannot be removed from the outside — and all mounting hardware is included. The finish is a clean \u003cstrong\u003ewhite powder coat\u003c\/strong\u003e (the only color offered), and it can be painted over to match your door, trim, or siding. The cover installs on the \u003cstrong\u003eoutside\u003c\/strong\u003e of your home, which is the recommended setup; it can also be mounted inside if securely fastened. The cover door lifts off its hinges for separate storage whenever you want it out of the way.

Is your dog letting himself out at 2 a.m.? Are raccoons treating your flap like their own front door? A locking pet door cover gives you control: home security against intruders, a real barrier against raccoons, strays, and wildlife, the freedom to keep your dog safely in — or out — on your schedule, and peace of mind when the house is empty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThree Sizes — Large, X-Large \u0026amp; XX-Large\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWatchdog sizes are matched to the pet door you already own, not to a breed chart. Is your dog using a big flap several times a day? Then start by measuring the \u003cstrong\u003eexterior frame of your existing pet door\u003c\/strong\u003e, and choose the cover whose frame is larger than your pet door's frame:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge\u003c\/strong\u003e — fits pet door flap openings up to 11\" × 17½\"; cover exterior frame 15½\" × 21½\"; fits existing frames up to ½\" deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eX-Large\u003c\/strong\u003e — fits flap openings up to 12\" × 24\"; cover exterior frame 16½\" × 28\"; fits existing frames up to ½\" deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eXX-Large\u003c\/strong\u003e — fits flap openings up to 16\" × 26\"; cover exterior frame 20½\" × 30\"; fits existing frames up to ½\" deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEndura Flap owners: your Medium takes the Watchdog Large, your Large takes the Watchdog X-Large, and your Extra Large takes the Watchdog XX-Large.
