Maximum Dog Size
The PX-2 Large Power Pet door will accommodate dogs as large as 14" torso height and up to 10 3/8 shoulder width. Most dogs under 100 lbs. fit into this category but, be sure to measure your dog before ordering to make sure you have a door that is large enough.
The height at which you mount your door will depend on how tall your dog is. We recommend that you mount the door so that the top of the door panel is at least 2 inches higher than your dog's back. Detailed instructions are included with your Power Pet door
Cut-Out Dimensions
Power Pet door installs in any home door. Just make a cut-out about the same size as a normal dog door opening and screw the main door unit and bezel into your door. Typical installation takes less than one hour. Full, detailed instructions are provided for quick, easy installation. Note that for wall installations an optional wall tunnel is required.
Door Installation
The Power Pet Door installs in any door or wall. It is surface mounted thereby, requiring the same size cut-out as a conventional flap door.
Wall Installation
Order our optional wall tunnel to mount your door in walls up to 7" thick. The wall tunnel fills the space between the studs and gives you installation an attractive, professional appearance.

AC or Optional Battery Power: POWER PET doors may be operated in three different power modes
|
|
|
---|---|---|
110-Volt AC Wall Outlet Comes StandardPOWER PET doors come standard with a UL approved AC adapter. Plug the adapter into a nearby wall outlet for continuous operation. With dual jacks, the cord can be connected to either the left or right side of the door. |
AC With Optional Battery BackupYou may purchase an optional rechargeable battery for use along with your AC adapter. If your household electricity should ever fail, your POWER PET door will automatically switch over to battery operation. When power is restored, the AC adapter will automatically recharge your battery. |
Full Battery Operation with Optional Charger KitYou may also operate your POWER PET door with the battery only. This eliminates the need for the AC adapter or any electrical power connection. However, you will need to recharge the battery periodically (recharge interval varies depending upon use). In this case, we recommend that you purchase the optional charger kit with 2 backup batteries. With two batteries, you can use one in your POWER PET door and keep the other in the charger. When your door battery runs low, just swap. |

Product Description
Engineered for performance, design, value and extreme reliability, Power Pet doors are motor driven and activated by a tiny ultrasonic collar. Other electronic pet doors merely unlock a hinged panel, requiring your pet to push it open. That's something that a lot of pets don't like to do. Patented Power Pet doors open completely under their own power. They feature a translucent door panel made of a new super-strength, bulletproof resin. When your pet approaches, the air-tight panel quickly and quietly powers upward, disappearing into the stylish housing. Because the panel moves up and down and does not swing out, it can be mounted in hermetically sealed grooves for air-tight closure. This mounting arrangement makes it impossible for an intruder to kick it out. An automatic dead-bolt locking feature adds a higher level of security to your home. The result is the most secure pet door against intruders and stray animals. Your pets are empowered to come and go as they please. Their animal friends are politely asked to stay out. Power Pet doors are completely wind and weather-proof with an air-tight sealing system. Power Pet's directional sensing system is pretty amazing as well. The digitally coded signal emitted from your pet's ultrasonic transmitter collar allows the Power Pet to work almost like magic, opening only when your pet is on a direct approach. 4-way access control lets you select from In Only, Out Only, Full Access or Closed and Locked. Dual range controls let you set independent inside and outside activation distances. Panel size: 12-1/4 by 16-inch for pets up to 100-pound. Operates on AC adapter (included). Optional backup battery (model B12V-1.3) snaps into the battery compartment to keep your Power Pet door functioning in the case of a power outage, or if you prefer to operate solely on battery power. Door is also operated by Humane Contain RX-10 multi-function collar for X-10 dog fence system.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
My only problems have been with the collars, and a couple of issues with the doors. My cats kept clawing at the collars at first because they weren't used to wearing collars. The male cat managed to pop off the collar's battery cover but I found it, clicked it right back on & he hasn't dislodged it since. The other issue was that my female has somehow managed to slip completely out of her collar a couple of times while outside. Luckily, I found the collar the first time. The second time I had to order a new collar. I now keep a few spares collars (and spare batteries) around. It's a minor annoyance that their collar batteries are proprietary but it wasn't a deal breaker for me.
And one time the inside door's inner sensor seemingly quit working & the cats couldn't get out (BTW, one can set the door to let them in only, out only, both, or neither). Anyhow I checked the company's website, which has troubleshooting information. Through that I determined I needed a new sensor. They sent it free (along with detailed installation instructions) because I was under warranty. But for some reason, before I got around to replacing it the original one started working again & hasn't malfunctioned since. And occasionally the door in the garage can freeze shut if temps outside get extremely low. We've started keeping the cats indoors in winter anyhow since one of them caught pneumonia & almost died. That door also started squeaking once but a whiff of WD-40 resolved that.
While other pet door solutions are out there, to me this is about as perfect as it can get and I am EXTREMELY pleased with how well they work & the support from their manufacturer even though I bought them through Amazon. I love 'em!
The dog collars are small and don't seem to bother our dogs at all. The unit comes with one collar and we purchased a 2nd on Amazon also. One minor challenge we have is that if the collar spins at all, the sensor won't line up and the door may not open when the dog walks up to it. We are playing with the sensor adjustments now to see if there is an impact. It confuses the dog when the door won't open, but fortunately, since we have two and they are usually together. The other one will walk up or come back in from outside and open the door.
The unit does not have an adjustment to specify how long the door should stay open once they walk through it. Since we have two dogs, this would be great. I didn't take any stars off for this though because we still really like how it works as-is.
We haven't recognized how long the collar batteries last yet. They are specialty batteries and are not cheap, but we understand why... to keep the sensor small.
We definitely recommend this unit. We had a hard time determining what size to purchase. Our dogs are fairly small. One weights just over 30 pounds, which was the max for the smaller unit. We did some testing with cardboard and determined that the larger unit would be best for our dogs, even though they are small. The size is great. They have plenty of room to run through the door and it is not too large. Sometimes they try to go through it together :-) .
We did a lot of research on all the options available and from what we've reviewed and now what we've experiences... we are very confident that we made the right decision.

I am concerned about the customer service at High Tech Pet, however. One knob was broken off during shipping so I tried calling and emailing High Tech Pet about getting just the knob replaced but the phone number didn't work and I didn't get a response from them by email. Amazon's customer service, on the other hand, is fantastic. They offered to replace the whole door but I was hoping to hear from High Tech Pet about replacing just the knob but they never did get back to me.
THE ONLY THING THAT I WISH COULD BE DIFFERENT IS THE SPEED OF IT OPENING. SOMETIMES THE DOG NEEDS TO RUN OUT TO SCARE SOMETHING (ANIMAL,PERSON) AND THEY CANT GET OUT AS FAST AS THEY HOPED TO.
