FAQ
Do the guillotine dog doors come with hardware for setting up a pulley system? You would have to purchase your own hardware if you wanted to link this up with a pulley system. It would also require drilling the holes in the solid panel. |
Do you know how to make a guillotine dog door pulley system? You would have to purchase the hardware locally, but it would require drilling a hole in the closing panel and atatching the cable. Then you would have to hang the pulley above the door and thread the cable through a hole in the fence run. This will allow you to open and close the run without going inside. We have some detailed photos on the installation instruction tab too. |
