Steel mesh would be my best guess but even then in order for it to be easily bendable means it will be easy to rip

ohhh good point. I mean if it bends enough to let the dog out that's enough, yeah? like i guess it doesn't need to be as flexible as the current version.

Try a sample first. You will probably lose the benefits of the auto close feature. The steel can be really stiff. So once a dog pushes it open it’s unlikely it will fall back closed. You might have to experiment a little.

smart yeah. it'll probably take a trip to the hardware store to get hands-on first. but what i'm picturing in my head is like... maybe it will slap back into place but with a wub wub wub sound instead of a graceful float back to the magnet closure.
