A patio panel pet door

Types of Patio Pet Doors:

The most common are "General Purpose" models intended to adapt to virtually any sliding glass door. They normally come in a variety of sizes and may be "spring-loaded" for easy put-in and take-out or they may be toe-nailed in your track. The "spring-loads" are the most popular and common.

In recent years vinyl framed sliding glass doors have become much more common and there are patio pet doors designed specifically for that situation. We suggest starting with these and then moving to a general purpose type if there is some feature missing.

Finally, there are several magnetic-operated or motorized panels that may be used to control access. Your pet may come and go but intruders are kept out.
