Wondering how to measure your track? Review our Track Measuring Guide.

Your Track Height Adjustment range is based on the measurement of your door height from the lowest point of your track to the highest point. Each Dragon patio panel has a 3" adjustment range with your window track height approximately in the middle. The following adjustment ranges are available:

  • Short (Size F): 34" – 37"
  • Regular (Size J): 46" – 49"


CAUTION: If your measured track height is near the bottom of the adjustment range then you should review A Note of Caution.

  • 1 Locking Cover

Tools

  • Flathead Screwdriver

Please read instructions & notes thoroughly before installation.

Step 1 Adjust the Top Piece

how to adjust top piece
  • Loosen the height adjustment locks at the top of the panel. This allows the spring mechanism to move freely up and down.
  • Watch out, it might jump at you the first time!

Step 2 Test-Fit the Panel

fit panel into track
  • Insert the panel into the top track of your framing, push the panel into the spring mechanism and swing the bottom of the panel up and over the threshold into the rail at the bottom.
  • If you can't quite clear the track, try swinging in from the outside as the outside track wall may be shorter.
  • If the panel still doesn’t fit, see the FAQ for guidance.
  • Do not apply the weather stripping before test fitting the panel

Step 3 Apply the Weather Stripping

apply weatherstripping
  • Once you have confirmed the panel fits, remove the panel from the track and lay it on its side.
  • Apply the foam weather-stripping by peeling back the paper and exposing the adhesive. Unroll it along the edge of the panel, pressing to ensure it adheres. Use scissors to trim the strip to fit the length of your panel.
  • Flip your panel around to apply on the other side.

Step 4 Install the Panel

Locking Your Window

Since you likely can no longer use your window’s original lock, we have provided you with an alternative locking method to keep your home secure.

Installing the track clamp

This clamp has a thumb screw which tightens by hand to prevent the sliding window pane from moving beyond the clamp’s placement. For windows manufactured with the slider on the inside track, the lock can usually be installed on the raised track.

If you aren't able to use the lock that comes with the panel:

A great alternative to locking your window is a charley bar or dowel in the track. Both work off the same concept—they block the slider from opening. When engaged you cannot pull the sliding pane away from the pet door panel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my panel is slightly too tall?

You can trim up to 5/16” off the spring-loaded adjustment piece at the top. This can be done by removing the adjustment pieces with a #2 Phillips Head screwdriver and cutting down the flanges. Be careful not to cut too low.

where to trim adjustment piece

What if the panel is wobbling slightly back and forth?

If your track is wider than 1-1/2" you can use small wooden shims or extra weather-stripping to fill in the gap inside the top and bottom tracks. By placing the material inside the tracks you won't be able to see it, but it will stabilize the panel.

FAQ

How do I lock my window pet door insert?

The spring-loaded pressure system will secure the panel in place in your window track. However, if you want a semi-permanent installation, you can toenail a screw to the side of the Dragon window panel to secure it in place. For further security, you can install a Charley Bar.

Is the flap easy for pets to use?

Yes, the Dragon flap is very flexible and lightweight, so it's easy for pets to use. It's a great option if you have dogs and cats sharing.

What's the difference between single and double flap?

The double flap will be more insulating than the single flap. Keep in mind that this door is intended for more moderate climates

Can I start with a single flap and upgrade to double later?

Yes, since the flaps are installed on the outside of the frame, you can easily add a second Dragon Flap later for improved insulation.

Is the flap see-through? 

The flap is translucent. It has a slight tint but you can still see through it.

Do you need tools to install the dragon pet door for vinyl windows?

You need a flathead screwdriver to adjust the height adjustment locks at the top of the panel. 

What's the difference between the single flap and the double flap?

The double flap option provides increased insulation against the cold. Both options have magnets on the flap to keep the door sealed in wind.

I want to get the large pet door for my dog, but I am concerned about a person fitting through it.

All Dragon Pet Doors come with a locking cover. This cover can be used to keep you doggy in. It also can be used to keep intruders from entering your home. It slides into the interior frame.

How do I know what size is best for my dog?

When installing the pet door you want it to clear the top of your dog's back by 1-2 inches, minimum. To give your pet the most comfortable pet door possible, make sure the step-over is less than 1/3 of your dog's height. Lastly you want the width of the door to be big enough to allow your pet to go through without touching the sides. Here's a guide on how to measure your pet with tips on how to determine the correct size.

Are replacement flaps available?

Yes, you can buy Dragon replacement flaps.

Where can I install the Dragon Pet Door?

The Dragon Pet Door has multiple Installation options. You can install it in Regular Doors, as a Wall mount, Aluminum Sliding Doors, Vinyl Sliding Doors, Sash Windows, Vinyl Windows, and Horizontal Windows.

Can my small and large dog share this pet door?

Yes, but make sure to follow standard Measuring Guidelines. Make sure the size of the door is based off your tallest pet, but installed low enough for your smallest pet.

Cat flap not see through

We like the size and ease of installation, however we were surprised and disappointed that the cat flap is not clear. Our cat likes to be able to see where she is going. Can't blame her there.

Good size for extra fluffy kitties

This door is big enough for my fat boy and yet small enough for the window.

Great quality and price

The door fits well, looks nice, and the provided foam weather stripping provides good insulation (even for Chicago weather!). I didnt give 5 stars only because the package was missing the track clamp. Other than that, its a great door at a great price.

Surprised to find, good purchase

I was surprised to find a dog door specifically for a vinyl window of this type! Seemed like a niche product but I'm glad it's offered, especially for such a good price. Dog door is getting a lot of use and holding up well. The dogs going in and out means the floor by the window starts to get dirty though! The flap doesn't seal perfectly, so we might get that double flap upgrade kit. Compared to other dog doors we've had in the past it works at least as well though, even against more expensive ones.
