IMPORTANT: Install the dog door so that the finished dog opening height is approximately two inches (2”) taller than the dog’s back.
Safety for you and your pet is our highest priority. Each door comes with a lock and key and a steel plate that can be easily attached on for extra security.
Lock and Key
All models come with a lock and two keys for everyday use. Just turn the key to lock out unwanted guests. Heavy duty steel lock visible only from the inside resists tampering. The small size door has a four-way lock that can be set to open, locked, open for entry, and open for exit.
Steel Security Plate
Medium, Large, and Extra Large size PlexiDor dog doors include a steel security plate that screws on easily when you leave for an extended period of time. To use the security plate daily, install the optional PlexiDor Sliding Track – so the door can be conveniently dropped into place and closed with a flip lock in seconds. Small size doors are too small for an intruder to enter and do not come with the steel security door.
Refer to the PlexiDor Size Chart shown below to determine the size pet door you require. Once you know the correct size for your pet, be sure to review the installation information. If you have any questions please call 1-800-749-9609 FREE for assistance.
