Pet 1 Product Patio Panel Pet Door for Sliding Glass Doors

Pet 1 Panel
Important Features

The Pet 1 Product Patio Panel is an innovative design consisting of a standardized panel unit and inter-changeable opening & rise units together with a "Charley Bar" for securely locking your sliding glass door.

The glass is dual pane for maximum insulation and noise reduction values.

Because the panel is separate from the insert unit, the user who has a change in the size of his pet doesn't need to purchase an entire new pet door. He/she simply purchases a new insert with the appropriate size opening at considerably less expense.

Just as important as the opening, of course, is the "rise" dimension. The Pet 1 Panel includes a user adjustable rise design (under license from Patio Pacific Inc) which allows a given flap opening to accommodate dogs of varying heights. For example, a Jack Russell Terrier and a Dachshund may both be happy with a medium sized opening but only if the opening is positioned higher for the Jack Russell and low for the Dachshund.

At 18", the Pet 1 Product panel is one of the widest units you can buy which will decrease the room available to walk out your panel. Likewise, at 1.5" thick, there may be some sliding glass door tracks too narrow for this panel. Best to check before buying. However, the manufacturer specifies it for vinyl tracks which is a significant advantage.

The installation method is unique and doesn't really fit the 'temporary' and 'semi-permanent' categories. On one hand, it does not require fastening in your track with screws for a stable installation. It just 'pops' in. But the gas shock system uses so much force that it's necessary to fasten a special handle on the adjustment panel which you then use to pull it down. That handle bolts in place; and, when you've finished installing the door, it is removed. You need to keep track of that handle as well as the tools and bolts used to install it.

Pet 1 Product Significant Design Features

Pet 1 Product Offers Interchangeable Inserts

Interchangeable Inserts (purchased separately) allow one panel to accommodate a variety of pet sizes. Thus, a change in pet sizes doesn't require replacing the entire pet door. Only a different insert need be purchased. The insert unit includes both the flap assembly and the adjustable rise units.

"Ultra-Swing Flap Mechanism" is more Durable

"Ultra-Swing Flap Mechanism" consists of two flaps 1" apart pivoting on a rod at the top. Since the flap material, weather treated TPE (thermoplastic elastomer - a material that resists deforming due to stretching). The pivot action eliminates most flexing which is the primary cause of flap failure. A locking cover is included.

User Adjustable Rise (under license from Patio Pacific Inc)

The Pet 1 Panel incorporates a user adjustable rise design (under license from Patio Pacific Inc) that allows the height of the flap assembly to be raised or lowered in 2" increments to accommodate various sized pets. The cross pieces shown may be installed above or below the actual flap opening as needed.

The Pet 1 Product panel incorporates a gas shock system that provides an unusually strong upward force on the door frame for a very stable installation. Additionally, the gas shock system allows for a remarkable 8" of adjustment range. The two ranges available are Reg: 76"-84" and Tall: 92"-100" and cover most sliding glass door frames.

Important Note

For every other patio pet door the correct measurement is inside the track, very top to very bottom.

However, in measuring for the Pet 1 Product door, you should not measure into the track at top or bottom. Just measure between the tracks as shown below:

Do not measure inside the track
at top or bottom

The user adjustable rise offered in the Pet 1 Product patio panel means that for each size--small, medium and large--there are multiple "rise" dimensions available to the user.
