Step 6Cutting the Flaps into Strips
Once the flaps were well attached, I simply used scissors to cut strips in the flaps. The overlap helps keep bugs out, and the strips make it easy for the dogs to go in and out.
I had wider flaps originally, but they seemed to be more stiff (and I think that's why they eventually tore). I'm hoping narrower strips will allow this incarnation of the doggy door to last longer. The first one last about 3 1/2 years, though, so not bad at all.
