Product Details
The High Tech Power Pet E-Glass Smartphone Controlled Patio Door is the new and improved version of the High Tech Power Pet Patio Pet Door. Enjoy the same great features of the Power Pet Door for sliders with the addition of Low-E and dual-pane glass. WiFi is required to access the pet door through the smartphone app. The app gives you remote control over the door's automatic features. The electronic pet door raises open when it senses the ultrasonic collar key your pet wears, keeping your home secure and free of unwanted critters. Set up to 20 custom timers to control when your pet can come and go, and view app history to see the number of times the sensor is triggered in a day, week, month, or year.
Features:
- Low-E, dual-pane tempered glass in panel keeps your home insulated.
- Remote control from anywhere using WiFi or cellular connection.
- Smartphone app sends real-time notifications when your pet comes and goes from the door and alerts any malfunctions.
- Pet door will update automatically with new app features as they are developed.
- Set up to 20 custom timers to control when your pet can go outside. If your pet is outside when the timer activates (turns off the inside sensor only) they will still be able to come in because the outside sensor will let them in
- Motorized operation allows pets to use the door without having to push through, great for timid or arthritic pets.
- Deadbolt locking system activates as soon as the door is completely shut, preventing unwanted animals from using the door.
- Includes a universal sliding door lock that fits nearly any slider frame and allows you to lock your slider against the pet door panel.
- Full set of weatherstripping included with your panel for added insulation value.
- Heavy-duty aluminum frame and stainless steel hardware hold up to the elements.
- Includes one water-resistant MS-4 collar key. Additional collar keys including waterproof MS-5 keys are available.
- Door panel weighs less than 2 lbs and closes smoothly by gravity (not motor); will not cause any injury to your pet.
- Automatic Safety Retract feature reopens the door if it encounters an obstruction during closure for peace of mind.
- Includes the option of enabling a 4-way locking system (in/out only or completely locked/unlocked) for additional control over your pet's access to and from the door.
- The collar keys can be programmed to work at a range from 1 ft to 10 ft from the door (inside and outside distance can be adjusted independently). Just push the SENSORS button then turn the RANGE knob to the desired range.
Benefits:
- App control allows easy operation of the pet door from any location.
- Easy, tool-free installtion in a matter of minutes.
- Energy-efficient pet door lowers your heating and cooling bill.
- Aluminum frame is nearly twice as thick and about 8 times stronger than typical patio pet door panels.
Options for Powering the Door:
- Outlet: Comes with a UL-approved AC adapter. Plug the adapter into a nearby wall outlet for continuous operation. The pet door accepts the plug-in on either side. Power cord is 5 feet long.
- Outlet with Backup Battery: Option of purchasing a rechargeable battery for use along with your AC adapter. In the case of a power outage, the door will automatically switch over to door battery operation, which will run on its own power. When power is restored, the AC adapter will automatically recharge the battery.
- Full Battery Operation is Not Recommended: Pet door should not be operated solely using the battery because it will deplete the battery quickly and automatically turn off the wifi feature to preserve the battery to operate the door flap.
Note: To Connect using hotspots
- The door and phone have to be connected to the same 2.4g wifi to set up the door. You should reset the door in order for it to connect.
- Once the door is set up, when at home, you have to be on the same network to use the remote control.
- When you are away from the house you cannot be connected to any wifi network. You must use your cellular data to connect.

If my dog takes too long coming through the door, will it continue to close and injure them? No, the door has a built in safety feature that retracts the door if it senses an obstacle to closing. The power pet electronic pet door also has a 4-way access control sensing system. |
|

United StatesControl Pet Door Remotely (Staff Review)
This is a nice door if you want the option to control the flap remotely. The panel itself is good quality and the automatic flap is great for timid pets who don't like to push through manual pet doors.
United StatesDo not buy!
The doors do not work if you have internet through hotspots. I tried for weeks and weeks as the people tried to "walk me through it". Tried older "2G" network phones, hotspots, etc and it never worked. they sent me another one with the same problem-does not work with phone. the app is so bad it will make you kick something. Dont buy!

I have more than one dog. How many collars ship with the door and are others available? The new pet door ships with one collar and additional collars are available for purchase. |
|
Does anyone have concerns with intruders breaking in? The panel moves up and down and does in sealed grooves for a tight closure. This design makes it extremely difficult for an intruder to kick it out. An automatic deadbolt locking feature adds a higher level of security to your home. The result is a secure pet door against intruders. |
|
What kind of battery do I need to use in the door if I do not want to wire it up to electricity? Full Battery Operation is available if a wall plug is not available. You will need to recharge the battery periodically (recharge interval varies with use) and it is recommended to have the optional battery charger kit and a spare back-up battery. |

I want to let my dog out and keep my cat in. Is this door a good option? This electronic dog door for sliding glass door installations will open and close when it senses your dog's collar. If the dog is extra large and the cat is small, they could easily follow them out. Even though your cat is not wearing a collar, there is a bit of a lead time so it may follow your dog through the door. The door has a 4-way locking mechanism and smartkey sensing technology (both in and out, in- only, out-only, and closed). |
|
Can you still slide the door for humans when it's installed? Yes you can, the electric pet door panel just takes up some space from your normal walkway. Refer to the overall width of the panel to determine the space it will take up. |
|
Do you have a bigger electronic dog door for sliding doors? The high tech power pet patio door is the only automatic dog door for sliding glass door installation, and the largest size is 12" x 16", suitable for dogs 21" at the shoulders. |
|
Is this electronic dog door large enough for a great dane? Giant dog doors are only available in the manual pet door models like the Hale. The electronic dog door for sliding glass options are pretty limited so many times customers will have to find an alternate installation spot. |

United StatesControl Pet Door Remotely (Staff Review)
This is a nice door if you want the option to control the flap remotely. The panel itself is good quality and the automatic flap is great for timid pets who don't like to push through manual pet doors.
United StatesDo not buy!
The doors do not work if you have internet through hotspots. I tried for weeks and weeks as the people tried to "walk me through it". Tried older "2G" network phones, hotspots, etc and it never worked. they sent me another one with the same problem-does not work with phone. the app is so bad it will make you kick something. Dont buy!
