FAQs

FAQ

Can I add additional magnets? Yes! You can attach and remove magnets. Removing magnets makes it easier for smaller pets to push through. With a screwdriver head, you can push the magnets off the flap. Adding magnets is a great way to increase your insulation value to combat outside weather as well. You can purchase additional magnets and strikes.This can add energy efficiency to your pet door.
What if my wall is thicker than 8"? Hale manufactures two great options for your thick wall home. If you need a custom size flap opening, you'll need to purchase both the Hale Custom Dimension Dog Doors for Walls, as well as the extended tunnel section. For standard flap sizes (there are 10 of them!) the Hale Pet Doors for Thick Walls With Extra Long Tunnel is suitable for walls up to 16" thick, right out of the box.
Are the panels/flaps flexible? Seems like it would trap a dog if it backed up. The Hale Pet Door flaps are comfortably flexible and suited for a wide variety of pets. Your cat or dog should have no problem backing up and won't run a risk of getting pinched.
I want to get the large pet door for my dog, but I am concerned about a person fitting through an x-large door. All Hale Pet Doors come with a locking cover. This cover can be used to keep your pet inside by blocking access to the doggie door. It also can be used to keep intruders from entering your home. We do have a product called the Watchdog Steel Security Pet Door Cover that provides maximum security for any pet door, complete with a combination lock. The cover comes in sizes large enough to fit even the XL dog doors for wall mount. Security consultants agree that dogs are a good burglar deterrent, especially one that barks. If you want to leave your pet door open make sure the gate to access your yard is locked and you post a “Beware of Dog” sign.
Is a single flap enough for extreme winter weather? The Hale Pet Door functions best in moderate to mild climates. For extreme weather situations, we recommend considering the Endura Flap Pet Door for Walls instead, as they feature a dual-layer flap that provides superior insulation. If a Hale Pet Door is better suited to your pets, but you still experience weather extremes, we definitely recommend opting for the double flap model.
Is the flap on the interior or exterior frame for single flap model? The single flap model will feature a flap on the exterior frame of the pet door.
What side does the locking cover slide in? The standard option for the slide in locking cover is from the top. When you place your order, you can add the option for a side-load locking cover, which can either be selected to slide in from the left- or right-side. This is an option available for new door purchases only.
How does the Hale Pet Door contribute to energy efficiency in a home? The flap’s magnetic closures keep the flap closed against wind and rain. The weather stripping lining, as well as the option double flap configuration, adds extra insulation and prevents drafts.
Can I attach a locking cover on both sides of the unit? If you want a locking cover on both sides, that would be a special order. Please let us know beforehand if you want to make that happen. Once you have the door in your home, an additional locking cover cannot be added the other side. The exterior locking cover can also only be manufactured to open from the left or right.
Can my cats use a double flap? Cats should be able to push through a Hale Pet Door double flap mount. It helps there will be a tunnel, since the two flaps will not be back to back so your cat will only go through one flap at a time. If it is difficult, you can also remove some magnets to lessen the resistance.
How do I adjust the tunnel sleeve to fit my wall length? The tunnel sleeve is made of aluminum and will either be 10" or 16" in length. Once you measure the exact length of your wall, you will then have to cut the aluminum with metal snips according to size. You can discard the extra material left over.
How do I install the carpet for this door? First, measure and trim the carpet to match your tunnel's width. You can use common construction glue to keep the carpet in place. Then, you can apply the adhesive to firmly lock the carpet against the tunnel.
How high off the floor should my dog door be? Generally, every pet door should at least 3" off the floor to maintain your door or wall's integrity. The distance between the bottom edge of your pet door and the floor is called the step-over, and is an important aspect of determining how big of a pet door your dog requires. The step-over should be easy for your dog to "step-over," and never be more than a third of your dog's height. You can read more about step-overs in our measuring guide: Measure Your Pet.

You can open your cover left or right depending on other obstructions on either side of the installation location.

Our little dog prefers a bigger door!

This is the second Hale Door I have purchased. We got a bigger one this time for a future larger dog. We currently have 2-20lb dogs and they are loving it! They have no issues with the bigger flap and slightly stronger magnets.

Love our doggie door

I called the company because I was not sure how to order the dog door with a different color frame on the outside of the house. The person I reached was super helpful and patient.

Great product!

This product, to me, is worth the price. The many options available made it easy for me to choose the correct door for my double brick wall. The installation is not easy, but the instructions are very thorough. My particular double brick home made the installation more of a figure it out as you go, but the instructions they give was an excellent template.
