  • Assembly Instructions: 1. Determine Pet Door Location1A Measure and mark your pet’s shoulder height on the interior side of door.1B Determine location for the pet door. Draw a vertical center line through the shoulder height line using a level. 2. Prepare Door2A Remove door by removing door hinge pins.2B Place on a raised level surface such as saw horses. Place interior side of door facing up.Helpful Tip: Clamp down the door to prevent it from moving.Note: The Pet Door can be installed with the door hanging based on your skill level.2C Cut out the correct size template. Match the marked lines on the door with the shoulder and center lines on the template. Tape the template in place and carefully trace template. Make sure to trace underneath tape and connect the corners. Now, remove the template and any excess tape from the door.3. Cut Pet Door Opening3A Drill ½” holes in inside corners of drawn template. These will be the pilot holes for the saw blade.Helpful Tip: Use both hands to hold drill steady and straight at a 90° angle.3B Beginning in one of the holes just drilled, cut along the drawn template lines. After cutting out the opening, you may need to recut to square the opening. This isnecessary for the pet door frame to fit correctly.Helpful Tip: Use proper saw blade length and type according to door thickness and material (for example a wood blade for a wood door and a metal blade fora metal door). Cut slowly using both hands to hold the saw steady and straight at a 90° angle. This will prevent the blade from cutting unevenly betweeninterior and exterior sides of the door.4. Fit Core Covers4A Measure the thickness (T) of your door. Note this measurement.4B Cut the grooved side of the plastic core covers and core cover supports to equal the thickness (T) of your door + ⅞”.4C Place cut edge of bottom core cover toward you with ribbed side facing up. Snap left core cover support into left end of “T”-shaped rib on bottom core cover. Snap right core cover support into right end of “T”-shaped rib on bottom core cover. With channel sides facing in, align uncut edge (side with one rib) of side core covers with uncut edge of core cover supports. Slide channel of side core covers onto tab of core cover supports to form a “U”-shape.4D Slide weather strips into channels of side core covers. Weather strips should face inside. Weather strips may need trimming to meet at end of side core covers.4E Snap uncut edge (side with one rib) of assembled core covers inside bottom and side tabs of interior frame (frame with 2 flaps). The bottom core cover should be at bottom of interior frame. Weather strips and ribbed sides (uncut edges) should face flap. Snap the uncut edge (side with one rib) of top core cover inside top tabs of interior frame. Uncut edge (side with one rib) of top core cover should face flap. Core covers may need trimming to meet at corners.5. Install Pet DoorBefore putting away jigsaw, place the exterior frame (frame with 1 flap) into the underside of the opening to check the fit. If the screw holes on frame are not visiblethrough cut-out, you may need to recut opening before proceeding with the installation.5A Place interior frame (frame with 2 flaps) into cut-out. Next place exterior frame into cut-out from under side of door, inserting core covers inside tabs of frame. Hold frame together. Insert nylon screws through holes in interior frame into holes in exterior frame. Thread a hex nut onto bottom of each screw.5B Start screws, but do not tighten at this time. Place foam strip under interior frame for additional insulation. Cut off any excess.Helpful Tip: Use a screwdriver to tuck the foam strip under as you work around the frame.5C Use a screwdriver to evenly tighten screws throughout frame while keeping core covers in position. It may be necessary to adjust screws to make sure pet doorfit is correct.Helpful Tip: Look though flap opening to check if core covers are in position as you tighten the screws.5D Use wire cutters to trim screws flush with exterior frame.6. Train Your Pet6A Rehang your door and begin training your pet. It may help for you to be on one side of the door and your pet on the other. Lift or tape open flap and try to talk your pet through the pet door. After your pet has gone through a few times, allow the flap to touch your pet’s back so they will become comfortable using the pet door. If your pet will not go through the door, tape the flap open until they use it on their own.Helpful Tip: Try treats or toys to encourage your pet to go through the pet door and become comfortable using it.
