  • Installs in under a minute. Works great, strong adhesive.
I have been using a metal type door mechanism that let the cats in and kept the dogs out (and toddler). The metal one was a pain! Constantly bending, often bumping into it on the way out, which caused annoyance and sometimes hurt. Buying this Door Buddy was the perfect answer to ease of use and a secure room. I was so impressed I ordered two more last night (I waited until I tried this one) and will be securing other rooms. It is so easy to enter a room, you just lift up on the strap lock (zero effort) and slide it back in place to lock it behind you. When not being used, the door opens and latches as before, unlike with the metal cat door latch I was using before. I highly recommend this. ... show more

  • It actually works!
What a surprise, well made in the USA (Pelham, AL just down the hwy from me) product and worth every penny. I use it as a cat excluder, keeping our bedroom door open to facilitate ventilation. Now, I don’t have to build the Berlin Wall every night to keep the fur balls out and off the bed. I did not use the 3M VHB adhesive included as it can be a bear to remove. Instead, I used 3M Command adhesive tabs that don’t damage the finish of walls or any surface for that matter. I did clean the application area with alcohol before sticking them on. I’ve had great results with them over the years. I wish the foam wedge was a bit bigger but you can move it to the top of the door and nearer to the hinges to increase open space. Just a minor issue along with the adhesive. Otherwise, this is a near perfect product that I am very satisfied with. That’s saying a lot coming from me. Skip the foreign knock offs and buy the real thing and keep jobs at home. ... show more

  • Much more durable than anticipated!
I got this as a way to keep my unusually big and strong toddler from opening a door and getting into my valuable collections. At first, I tried using the door knob covers, but he quickly figured that out. I really didn’t want to change the door knobs to ones with locks, so I’m glad I ended up trying this one out! The instructions list different ways to install it depending on which side your door opens, and also depending on how strong you need it to be. I recommend installing it the stronger way, as it has worked VERY WELL for us. It’s super easy to install and you don’t need to drill any holes - it literally just uses the 3M mounting tape (if that’s what it’s called). Anyways I just wanted to let y’all know that it is durable, cause I had my doubts at first! Definitely give it a try! It’s inexpensive and actually works! Yay! ... show more

  • Great product
What a great product to help keep my puppy out of the basement and away from the litter box. It also gives my cats a safe place to stay and play away from the chaotic puppy energy!

  • Best invention I've found in a long time
This product is brilliant. I have 2 adult cats and a small dog, and I recently adopted a pair of kittens. Their home base is the laundry room since the gap under the door is big enough to see/interact with the older animals during the settling in period. Once the kittens were allowed out to explore, I wanted to keep the bigger cats and the dog away from their food and litter box but still give the kittens free access to their safe space. I was about to rig up a contraption when I found this! It's perfect. It took a bit of trial and error to determine how narrow to make the gap for just the kittens, but now I can keep track of how much they are eating and using the litterbox without interference from the older ones. The only improvement or suggestion I would make would be to have a larger sized bumper option. I'm going to make one myself. I highly recommend this- the adhesive is great so far, there is plenty of room in the strap to adjust from really small up to several inches, even with the stronger back-of-door setup. I love how the hook is loose enough to easily lift out/drop in. It took 30 seconds to install, including surface prep. ... show more

  • GREAT for dog & cat home!
Welcome to the animal house. We have 4 doggos and 5 cats (among others). Our dogs like to sleep in our room but the cats like the option of going in & out. If I leave the door open, the dogs will wake up before I do & who knows what they'll do. ("Who let the dogs out" is not fun when they leave little surprises for you.) Thanks to Door Buddy we can keep the door open a smidgen for the cats to do as they please but keep the doggos in until we are ready to let them out. You can adjust the size of the space in case you have a *chunky* kitty, like we do. It adheres to the door frame well. It took a few days to remember it was there & we may have pulled door open too hard a couple times & pulled it off. But it was easy to put back on & stayed on. It doesn't pop off when my dog tries to stick his nose in the door to push it open. That's also the great thing about the different sizes you can make it. You don't want your pup to get his head stuck in it so you can adjust it perfectly. We like this product so much that we bought a second one for another door. Oh! I almost forgot- it comes with this door wedge thing. It is amazing. We have a house fan & when we turn it on, some of our bedroom doors slam shut. You ever have the wind so crazy it just slams your door? Not anymore with our Door Buddy wedge thingy. It is easy to take off & put on your door handle for when you want some privacy & have the door closed all the way. Brilliant! ... show more

  • Finally something that keeps the toddler from escaping!
Our busy boy was waking up at 3am for some cereal in the kitchen LOL. The sleep consultant we hired recommended using this door buddy to keep him safely in his room (because of course climbing the pantry and refrigerator is frowned up). This has held up for 6 months+ and he is STRONG.
