Screen Door Pet Door in Bradford West Gwillimbury
A screen door pet door is an ABS-framed magnetic-closure flap installed into your patio screen door, giving dogs and cats independent backyard access while the screen stays closed. In Bradford West Gwillimbury, where the Holland Marsh begins its mosquito season in late April — the earliest in the service area — and the combination of high insect volume and frequent pet access creates a particularly costly door-opening pattern, the screen door pet door addresses the problem directly. Every time the patio screen door is opened to let the dog out, insects have an entry window. The pet door eliminates every one of those openings.
Bradford West Gwillimbury has the most demanding case for a screen door pet door of any municipality in the service area. The Holland Marsh mosquito season starts in late April and runs through September, and the volume of insects near the Holland River drainage channels, detention ponds in Summerlyn Village and Green Valley Estates, and the rural properties adjacent to Marsh agricultural land is higher than in comparable GTA communities. For dog-owning households in these locations, the patio screen door is opened and closed at least a dozen times per evening during peak season — and each opening is a meaningful insect exposure. The self-closing magnetic pet door removes every one of those events. Rural West Gwillimbury properties near Bond Head and Newton Robinson, where farm fields and drainage channels are close at hand, have the most urgent need. Subdivision homes backing onto stormwater ponds or greenways in central Bradford are a secondary but significant market. The 12"×14" flap suits most dog breeds; the 8"×10" works for small dogs and cats. Lockable side locks included.

Fine Mesh Upgrade Near Holland Marsh
· 2024Problem
A rural property on the fringe of the Holland Marsh drainage area, approximately 600 metres from an active drainage channel, had standard 18×16 screens throughout. The homeowners reported mosquitoes entering through closed windows throughout May and June, eventually concluding the insects were small enough to pass through the mesh. The problem was consistent across all ground-floor windows and both patio doors.
Solution
Replaced mesh on all ground-floor windows (9 units) and both patio doors with 20×20 fine mesh in charcoal finish. Existing aluminum frames were re-used in good condition. The owners confirmed insect entry through windows was resolved by the following week.
Builder-Grade Screen Replacement: Green Valley Estates
· 2025Problem
A 2018-built detached home in Green Valley Estates had 12 windows with original builder-grade screens: thin fiberglass mesh with loose spline seating that had already begun pulling free at the corners after six years. The owners had a large dog and wanted pet-resistant mesh on the lower level.
Solution
Replaced all 12 screens in a single visit: PetScreen on 5 ground-floor windows, heavy-duty fibreglass on 7 upper-floor windows. Existing frames were re-used where structurally sound; 2 frames replaced due to bent corner keys.
