This is a prototype and we'll improve on it after we take it for a test run in a couple of weeks.

The tile matches the floor a little better than this pic shows... it'll be covered by the bed when down anyway.

Tucker & Brooklyn in their usual perch at home, on squirrel & bird patrol. The next challenge is protecting the screen door from the little maniac on the right!

Be sure and post what you come up with for the screen door. We covered a 1/2 inch piece of plywood with matching tile to fit over the stairwell much like yours (still have to order some vinyl stair facing got the edges to match the other edges in the Vegas)
But haven't come up with a good way to "pup proof' the door.
