Mark The Pet Door Location; Prepare The Door - Petsafe Pet Door Guide D'installation

Mark the pet door location

1. Measure and mark your pet's shoulder height on the inside of the door where you will install the pet door (A).
2. Using a level, draw a vertical line where you want the center/centre of the pet door to be located (B).
The pet door must be level to swing properly.

Prepare the door

3. If possible, remove the door from its hinges (C) and place it on a raised level surface, such as two saw
horses (D). The interior side of the door should face up. Make sure there is nothing underneath the door where
you will cut the opening for the pet door.
If necessary, you can install the pet door without removing the door from its hinges.
4. Cut out the correct size cutting template for your pet door.
5. Tape the cutting template to the interior side of the door, matching the shoulder and center/centre lines on the
template with the shoulder and center/centre lines you drew previously (E).
Make sure there is a minimum of 3 inches (8 centimetres) between the outer edge of the cutting template and
the bottom and sides of the door to maintain the structural integrity of the door.
6. Trace the outside edge of the cutting template, making sure to connect the corners.
7. Remove the cutting template and any excess tape from the door.
