Our verdict
The Hakuna Pets glass patio pet door is a small-dog insert that swaps into a sliding glass door track without permanent cutting, and its magnetic locking panel gives you a way to seal the opening when the door isn't in use.
Small dogs and cats up to about 12.7 lbs living in apartments or rentals where a damage-free sliding door insert makes more sense than cutting a hole in a wall or door.
Skip if
You have a larger dog, need a permanent through-wall installation, or your sliding door opening falls outside the 77.2 to 83.5 inch adjustable height range.

Overview
['This Hakuna Pets pet door is built as a glass and aluminum insert panel that fits into an existing sliding glass door track, adjustable from 77.2 to 83.5 inches tall to match different door heights. The aluminum frame and glass panel construction is meant to blend in with an existing sliding door rather than looking like an add-on, and it includes a locking panel section so you can close off the pet flap entirely.', "It's rated for dogs up to 5.75 kilograms, or about 12.7 pounds, which puts it squarely in small-dog and cat territory rather than something a Labrador could use. The magnetic locking closure helps keep drafts out and gives a secure seal when the flap is shut, and because it's a sliding-door insert rather than a wall-mounted unit, it's positioned as a damage-free or renter-friendly option.", 'At $113.04, it sits in the mid-range for sliding glass door pet doors, and with 175 reviews averaging 3.8 stars and around 300 units bought in the past month, it has a reasonable amount of buyer feedback behind it, even if the rating leaves some room for the occasional installation or fit complaint.']

Performance notes
The 20 millimeter minimum and maximum compatible thickness spec means this insert is built for a specific glass panel depth, so measuring your sliding door track before ordering matters more than with a universal flap. The magnetic locking closure is the main functional feature here, giving you a way to shut the pet door off from drafts, bugs, or unwanted animal traffic without removing the whole unit.

Does it require cutting into my sliding door?
No, it's designed as a damage-free or permanent install option that fits into the existing sliding glass door track, adjustable from 77.2 to 83.5 inches tall.
