Can this be installed where there is already a regular door installed (front door)? Does the velcro have to be placed on the *exterior* of the house?

Yes. It has to be on the exterior of the house. I had the problem of them being uneven when I installed them.

Yes it can, might even work better, the sticky tape on the Velcro don't last very long in the weather. If you have pets like me the bottom of the screen get beat up quickly.

Depends on how the door opens. The Velcro is placed on the door frame. You have to be able to open the door then exit through the screen. This is a great invention. Love it.I bought 3 because I am afraid I won't find them again. The last one was torn because we were having our basement remodeled and boards wall board got caught on it.Carol

Not this model, there is one that has a clamp to attach to the top of the door frame this isn't it. I prefer this one because you can put it wherever you want it.

I would say it would work just fine. You'd probably have to attach the velcro on the outside of the doorframe. I got mine because I rent and it won't do any damage!

well I applied it to a door to an outside porch, without a strorm door, and it's fine. It is on the inside, the heated side of the door, so it's a different application than what you're thinking of, but I think it would do fine. It's not expensive so I would try it. Good luck.

This unit would not be practical to mount on the outside of a door, particularly if expesed to the weather. Also, it could easily be removed, so there is a security problem. Technically, it could do that whiich describe.

I used installed it on my exterior storm door. Not sure if that's what you are asking though.

you can really install it anywhere you want, my door opens from right to left so I installed it in the very right corner as your looking outside. That way I can keep the door partially open if I want, just enough for the dogs to get in and out. Works like a charm.

It has double-sided tape in the package -- but that usually works only for a couple of days, especially exposed to the elements. It also has two screws (and appropriate holes) for the bell button assembly--you can mount it to any wooden surface, including the door, I imagine. But it seemed more appropriate to fix it to the frame or the wall near the door.

Yes. As far as fitting that way, there's no reason it wouldn't fit on the outside of the door. Except for the fact that you'll be able to see it!

No you can not, it it fixed to the sides of the garage door frame, I guess you could not attach it but if it is left to just hang then the weight posts would get under the doon when you shut it. Ours does when the velco lets go. That is another annoying thing. The vecro strips on each side of the screen let go all of the time. I have just this weekend tacked it to the door frame with nails

No, definitely not.. the weather strip fits fine in the frame when the door is open.

They attach with double sided tape (that is provided) so technically you could put it anywhere the tape would stick - including the inside of a door which is where I had mine. However it didn't stick well for me and only lasted under a week before falling off. I tried buying more double sided adhesive - only lasted a couple days (even with small plastic containers like in the pic). I plan on going back and trying to mount inside cabinet door with small screws but just haven't taken the time to do that yet.

there is no installation. it just has a hole where the door handle is and a small piece of Velcro that sticks to the door to kind of hold it in place

first time took me a bit 10-15min, but after learning how it goes and having the right sizing it only takes a couple of minutes. I would not leave it on a door which faces the outdoors. it is very obvious looking with the large straps and colors of the connectors. I only have my main door to use it on and have to take it on and off each time. I don't know if it would help or allow access to your home, the wraps are pretty thin and really don't change the shape of the door much if at all.

I would say yes to exterior side of door or the side that you want it to be more visible. I have it on the inside of the window but we can also see it from the outside just as well. You will get a feel of the "texture" on the right side of the film. The other side is flat and smooth.

It can go anywhere! It's a "cling". No adhesive! We put it on our daughters door and had to cut it to fit, which was very easy. We had to cut the hole for the knob. Well worth the money. My daughter is very happy with it!

I installed it on my door from the kitchen to the garage and it was just cutting a hole and installing. But I think with an exterior wall you are going to have to cut some wood to shim the pet door depending if u have stucco or something other then just a solid piece of material to cut a hole through. You are going to have to make sure u don't have electrical or plumbing through the wall that you have in mind as well. I would seek professional help if you are thinking of cutting into one of your walls.
