User Adjustable "Step-Over"

This is one of the biggest advances in the panel pet door since they were invented in the 1970's!

Rise is a term invented by Patio Pacific many years ago and generally adopted by the industry. It refers to the height of the flap above the base of the pet door.  We at Patio Pacific now think that "step-over" more accurately conveys the meaning to the consumer.

'"Step-Over" is very important to the comfort of your pet. A higher step-over gets the flap up higher for a taller dog which avoids him having to stoop to get through.

On the other hand, a lower step-over is less to 'step over'.

In the past, a consumer that wanted a different step-over for any reason had to buy another patio pet door. If you misjudged and got a door with too tall a step-over you were in trouble. Likewise, if you replaced a short pet with a tall pet or vice-versa, you had a problem.

The adjustable step-over concept greatly increases your flexibility with the pet door. By simply removing the bottom flap assembly and cross pieces with a Phillips head screwdriver, you can rearrange the order of the cross pieces to get the step-over higher or lower.

This patented feature is only available on pet doors manufactured by Patio Pacific Inc and its licensees.
