Not dog proofEasy to install but dog learned how to push through and open the door in less than a day

Great to keep the dog out but let the cats inWe use this on our laundry room door(where the cat food is)
Works perfectly, and is adjustable so you can dial in the perfect opening to let the cats through but keep the dog out. Install is literally two screws; remove the door strike plate, install this in its place, and put the two screws back in.
Also still allows you to fully open or fully close the door as well. Neat little idea
FAQ – Door Prop keeps sliding. How do I lock it? (verified owner) –
Works perfectThis was such a fabulous purchase I was so happy I actually made. It is very sturdy and kept our dogs out the cat room with ease while offering a quick and easy and still usable solution to the doorway.

The perfect solution for cats.Waited until we’d used this for a few months to decide if I liked it. It works perfect! We have a door that doesn’t stay put it swings all the way open. We want to leave the door cracked for our cats but they’d constantly swing it wide open or cry outside to be let in if we shut the door. This closes the door the perfect amount to let them come and go but give us the privacy we need. Installation was super simple and we’ve had zero problems with quality. It’s our primary bedroom so the door is open and closed multiple times a day. Overall super pleased with this product. Price point and quality is great and we feel really confident that we will get several years of usage if not more. Would recommend.

Tried and TrueI was losing my mind. My sweet cats were losing their minds. And our wild new puppy was taking over. The puppy blues set in, “What have we done?”. I thought my day would consist of rotating everyone through different rooms so they could use the litter box, go outside, eat and nap. Dread set in. I don’t know what I searched or how I stumbled upon this product but for $20 I was sure going to give it a go.
I am not exaggerating when I say with one door prop alone, sanity started to return. The cats had access to the den/laundry room/ litter. However my sweet cat Stella couldn’t access her room anymore so I decided why not get another so she can go back to her zen space. More. Sanity. Arrived.
Fast forward now and I have 4 door props! The cats have full access and peace of mind to all of our carpeted rooms and the pup has the main living area to roam and play.
I had moments with this product where I thought “ugh, I need to buy a new one” BUT I hadn’t used their QR code to see how I can problem solve my concerns.
-I’ve experienced it slides and moves when closed. You just need to tighten the smalls screws.
-I’ve walked into it while I was in a rush and it wouldn’t latch properly which made it tedious to go in and out of. They suggest adding a piece of paper (shown in the second picture) and BOOM works wonderfully. You can make it look nicer of course but I was excited to see if it worked.
-I also experienced on two doors where I thought I had to lift the door for it to latch properly. No no no, I just had to unscrew the little screws and place it on the little nub (I don’t know what that part of the door is called lol) Every door is different and you will not tighten the small screws perfectly vertical, their will be a few millimeters difference.
-As far as cracking? And it not being sturdy? I am no gentle lady with these kind of things. I can be aloof and walk into it, over tighten things, slam the door too hard while in a rush. It has withstood me. We use these doors every day. I’ve closed one of them all the way while my husband has band practice and yes that’s not as convenient as if it wasn’t there but in my opinion, it’s a prop. It’s sole purpose is to keep it open, not constantly closing it all the way.
-My husband enjoys the convenience of products. If it wasn’t convenient and useful, we wouldn’t have them. Plain and simple.
So in total, $80 for peace within the home? Worth. It.

Good product.I wasn’t really looking for this product when I stumbled upon it. Finally found a way to keep my door propped open and not get pushed fully open by my animals. Good value. Very easy to install. Wish the door jam part was bigger.

Latch is so simple but works so well!We recently adopted a cat into our family. We already had a 10 yr old dog. We wanted a way for the cat to have a safe space to go that the dog couldn't get to, without having gates all around the house. This door latch is perfect!!!! We can keep the cat's food and litter box in a room that only he can get to! It was SO easy to install and can be adjusted for any size cat. I also love that you can easily enter or leave the room by using the door knob (Instead of climbing over or latching gates)!

Works surprisingly wellI bought this and I was sceptical about how well it would work, but I am pleased with how well it does. It was easy to install the door still shuts fully and it keeps my 90lb GSD out of my cats litter box. I have found him pressed into the space between the door and the frame still unable to get through so I'd say it's very strong. I would and have now recommended this to all my friends that have cats and dogs in the same home.

UselessTook my dog all of two seconds to figure out how to push past the flimsy plastic. Don't waste your money on this garbage!
UPDATE: The company who makes the product sent me a message on how to make it more usable. They advised me to find a small object in my house that can fit between the door frame and the small gap that the door stop creates, and wedge it in between, making the product sturdier. So far, so good. I crammed an old, shredded towel in there and my dog hasn't been able to push past, or has just lost interest because it's more challenging.
I won't go above 3 stars because the product should work on its own without external help, but I did really appreciate the developers reaching out with a solution.

Excellent product!This product is a great idea that has been executed very well. Installation was pretty much self explanatory. You can even close the door if you need to without removing the device. Definitely going to get a few more of these for other places where the cats can go, but the dogs can’t.
