Is there any way this could work on a sliding patio door (inside track)?

No. This only works on a swinging door, and then depending on the molding around the door. If your door swings, i.e.: a front entry, (works for a fast, economical change to a bedroom door) it is a perfect extra lock.

I really don't think so. It's definitely designed to stop a door from swinging. There are much better products designed specifically for patio doors. My opinion.

works well on single metal and wood doors. Not sure on patio sliding door. I always used a wooden or metal bar in the track.

Hi Jo...the package includes both panels which join down the middle by magnets..so one set will fit a sliding patio door. Hope this helps!

This bar is fixed to the door frame and props against the farthest (and innnermost) moving door. If you are going to slide to the other side, the bar will then be on the "wrong side." In that context it may not work -- assuming my understanding of your description is correct.

I doubt it would work as-is. You would probably need to mount a cheap bracket on the ceiling to keep it from sliding. I'm sure it can be done quickly and very cheap.

If your doors can both be opened from the inside, you'd need two locks. One for the door on the inside track, that could be locked/unlocked from the inside, and one for the door on the outside track, that could only be engaged/disengaged from the outside. If your doors only open/collapse one way, you'd just need one for the primary door. It depends on your model of triple slider. As the other reviewer advised, look up "Patio Door Guardian- how to install" on Youtube, that will give you a good idea as to how they work, and how you can even set them to open up just a few inches if you want fresh air.

I'm not sure what you are asking. My sliding (from the inside) slides from left to right. I'm sure it would have worked if the door slid from right to left.

We used the gate for a sliding door which it was designed for. It lead out to pool area. The gate is designed with a stop that attaches to the slider. I'm sure it would worked the door is stationary. We liked the fact that we did not have to use screws or drill into the wall since we only use it when grandchildren are visiting

This will not stop the sliding door , it needs to wedged under the door so it it can get stuck as the door is opened , the sliding is on tracks .The best way to secure your sliding door is to measure 2x2 wood, or metal pipe within 1/16" for easy removal . place it right behind the sliding door at the bottom to lock it tight , it can be removed easily if you cut it 1/16" shorter . if you use the 2x2 wood you can rig this unit by cutting the wood even shorter leaving room for the alarm unit . And then by mounting it vertically on the left bottom side of the sliding door so that the wood would press against the metal plate activating the alarm when someone attempts to open door .

Yes, I put one in our sliding door from Pella we got from Lowe's. It's not the greatest fit, but it should keep out burglars just looking for an unlocked door.

Yes it will work. But you need to be a till handy person to do it. We installed on a wooden sliding door of the same thickness

Sorry I can't really say except I do think would be a hindrance as it connects the slider to the stationary door quite firmly and we feel pretty secure with it. Do be sure to push the bar into its holder if YOU go outside as I've had the experience of not doing that and it fell down and kept me out quite successfully. Truth be told, easier for an intruder to just take a crowbar to a sliding door and bust it out if they wish.

While it may 'fit' in the opening, it will not be secure enough with the tension resting on the sliding door (the door on the one side will not be wide enough to hold the tension 'rings' on the end of the screws). I would not advise using this for a sliding door. They do make models that do fit sliding doors though - http://www.amazon.com/Cardinal-Gates-Lock-n-Block-Sliding-24-Inches/dp/B003TFEF3G/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1398872451&sr=8-2&keywords=Cardinal+Gates+Lock-N-Block+Sliding+Door+Gate - try that link.

I am guessing, since this is a patio, that the angle isn't too extreme and the surface isn't overly slick. With those assumptions in mind, I do expect it would work, but I have only ever used them to support bookcases. And if it did slide on its own, you could certainly anchor it with something after getting the angle you needed.

No. The outside slide bumps up against it. You have to block the door somehow.

You'll need to cut a piece of wood (a 2x2 perhaps) or something to lay in the track of the sliding door for security. I found a metal shower rod and cut it for a snug fit to lie in the track at the bottom. I don't go in and out the door, but slide it open for fresh air sometimes. I suppose you could i stall the pet door in the same track as the screen door and that might work well for you.

No. Description says: Adjustable height for standard aluminum sliding patio door sizes 77-5/8" - 80 3/4"

Yes it can. I also have a swing out front door and installed this door and it works just fine. A couple of things to consider: The bottom track that would normally be below or level with the front step with an exterior install will now be above the floor about one inch, you can leave the track as is or add a board/trim etc. to even it out, strengthen it or just for decorative reasons in general but keep in mind it still may be a trip hazard which is another issue. If you have door trim inside it will have to be removed to install the tracks and will be to short after the install unless you rip it down and just keep the partial trim, if you get new trim remember that it will be wider because of the screen frame and higher because of the upper track plus the lower track now on top the floor adding height. It's a little more work than installing it outside but workable. I think Home Depot also sells these doors and may have one on display for some visuals but I can't guarantee that. Forgot to mention that this door mounts outside the opening to the wall/door frame just in case. Hope this helps you out.
