I have sliding glass doors in my bedroom - will that work?

Yes, if you are 'handy' at all. Try one of these options. #1 Use 2 window panel kits which are slid & pegged together. The other option is try the EdgeStar APPK2010 door kit. #2 Go to a Plexiglas Shop and have them cut a 7" wide x height of your door frame panel for you. Several people have posted they had the shop cut the vent hole into the Plexiglas so they didn't have to mess with the kit. One even used an optically-styled piece of Plexiglas to make sure people noticed it (and they didn't walk into it). #3 Go to a home improvement store, which offers 2-3 free 'cuts', on a purchased plywood panel and have it cut to the size you need (the nice thing is the plywood can slip into the door tracks for 2 sided stability). On #2 & #3, I would make sure to cover the long open edge with paint/tape...etc., so some doesn't pick up splinters/cut themselves on it when using the door. Please remember you may need a new sliding door track lock/s. It needs to be very sturdy if you are going to be using the door for inside/outside access.

as long as you have a window to exhaust the hot air out of the room,using the window kit.works well.

The window panel that comes with the portable air conditioner can extend from 28'' to double size. If your sliding door is less than 56'' tall (very unlikely), then, it would work. Otherwise, you will have to find a larger window panel to block the open portion of the sliding door.

No .. Unless you can find a way to extend the window piece .Our bedroom window open like a sliding door we added a piece of wood to extend the length. I wasn't able to find additional pieces

You can use a heavy curtain to block the open portion of the window and snake the exhaust behind it.

Yes it should not be a problem. Be sure to line your top rails correctly as to not have the doors binding when you slide them closed.

It might if the door was jarred or thumped hard enough, but I suppose if they were able to do it gently, then no. Just my guess, haven't tried it personally. :) I've triggered mine mistakenly on occasion by bumping it or hitting it with the dog's fetch toys, but it's smart enough not to sound when the sliding glass doors are opened. Ultimately I think these alarms are designed for sounding upon breakage of the glass, they are definitely a good deterrent in that regard, but for covert entry through doors being opened(or removed) they probably won't fare so well, unless it was done in a forceful enough manner. Hope this info helped!

It will work. You could probably find 2 smaller plates at lowes to fashion to each door. The plate prevents damage to the door and will help reinforce the door in an attempted break in.

I think so why not? I have it on my door.My door is one of those doors with glass in the middle of it, not a sliding glass door. Thats where I have it, on the oval glass part . It goes off when my paperboy hits the bottom of the wooden part of the door.Works very well.

I used them to secure sliding class windows from being opened. It may depend on how your mount is anchored. I suggest you contact the seller and ask them.

Yes. The door is bolted into one side, then your origional sliding glass door locks into it. Even though you are able to lock your door into the pet door, I would still add an additional lock on the track for night time, or when you are away from home. I think that would be a great, extra precaution.

It would probably work, provided that the door is securely bolted to the shelves at each end and not able to slide off.

I don't believe so. The way it works is that it prevents the middle of the accordion door from folding out. The shower door slides, so my guess is that it will just slide along with it. You can try a thin plastic rod (like a curtain pull) just the right length to put in the track. This wouldn't let the door open. People do that with metal rods in double sliding doors going outdoors to prevent burglars from breaking in. Hope this helps.

Probably not on drawers. The Blumotion requires the weight of the door and its hinge to push against it. You need soft close tracks specifically for drawers. My two cents.

Yes, you can still use your sliding glass door while the pet panel is in place.

Anyone ever install infront (outside of house) of the sliding door. Where your sliding screen would be. This would allow your glass sliding door to shut as normal. I picture adding my own brush sweep along the vertical edge to help with air lose. Comments and pictures would be helpful.

The screen attaches to the where it will be placed by adhesive backed velcro. As long as you have a flt surface to attach it to it will work fine. Be sure to note that in the measurements: the screen is 35 inches and if your opening is also 35 inches it will be too short. Part of the screen width is a boarder that must overlap to the edge where it will be mounted. I was able to successfully attach it to the sliding glass door after repositioning it to the velcro a few times.

I don't think so. It's wide enough to obstruct the sliding door from opening. I wouldn't try it.

If you can install it UNDER the pane-dividers, it will be more secure.Remember that the glass will still break, so I'd be afraid of the smaller panes breaking out of the frame, unless the whole of the glass in the door were covered.

No. Glass will mask the motion as much as a wall. I tried it through my French door.

They would work great, just make sure to bevel your sliding edges, it would be just fine.
