The Plexidor is professionally engineered and manufactured from quality materials to be the very best: quiet, energy-efficient, completely secure, long-lasting and most importantly, safe and easy for pets to use. Unique twin Plexidor panels open both ways with a gentle push - just like a cafe-type house door - and close automatically without banging. They can be locked shut when required, and a separate steel security plate comes with door to completely close the opening.

Plexidor door units frame out a door that is 1 3/4." This is the standard thickness of a door in the United States and Canada. The frame of the Plexidor will protect your pet from the cut-out edges of the door. There is no need to 'frame out' the hole. The Plexidor can be installed in any type of house door. If you have French doors, consult your local installer or contractor to see if he can use your French door or if you will need to install a different door slab.

The Plexidor unit for extra large dogs measures:

• An opening width of 16"
• An opening height of 23 3/4"

What goes into a Plexidor? Plexidors are made from thick aluminum that will not rust, crack, bend or warp. The satin finish is a smooth anodized finish.The white and bronze are baked on and the designer colors are baked on 2 times for durability. The panels are a high impact acrylic, the same type of material as used in aircraft windshields. The Plexidors are made to give you years of service. This door saves you energy and money. Buy one door, not 5 replacement flaps.

The Plexidor is manufactured in the U.S.A. to ensure reliable delivery and replacement parts service. Plus, there is a 90 Day Satisfaction Guarantee and 5 year limited warranty in residential use.

How do I train my pet to use the Plexidor? There is no standard timeframe for pets to learn how to use the doors. It can take 5 seconds or 5 days. To assist them, try propping open the door and entice your pet through the door with a treat. Do this several times in succession. Then close the pet door and entice your pet through several times in succession. For dogs, all of this is usually accomplished in 20 minutes or less. With cats it may take a little longer. For an added incentive with cats it is best to put something they want on the other side of the pet door, like their food bowl. Try to avoid opening the door for your pet as they may quickly get used to having their personal doorman. With a little practice, your pet will learn to use their Plexidor in no time.
