Install The Pet Door; Train Your Pet - Petsafe Pet Door Guide D'installation

Install the pet door

NOTE: If you purchased an Installation Adaptor, place the installation adaptor plates on the interior and exterior
frames of the pet door before installation. The Installation Adaptor is necessary only if you are installing the pet door
in a door less than 1 1/2 inches (38 millimetres) thick. For more details, please contact Customer Care.
12. Place the interior frame (the frame with one flap) in the
opening on the interior side of the door (J).
13. Place the exterior frame (the frame with two flaps) in the
opening on the exterior side of the door.
14. Insert screws through the holes in the interior and
exterior frames and match screw sleeves to the end of
each screw.
NOTE: The pet door comes with both metal and nylon
screws; use whichever you prefer. The nylon screws are
flexible and can be easily trimmed for a perfect fit with
any door thickness.
15. Tighten the screws until the frames come together and
the screw sleeves are flush with the exterior frame.
Use a manual screwdriver to tighten screws. Do not overtighten. Overtightening can strip the screws or warp
the pet door frame.
16. If using nylon screws, cut off the excess screw length with wire cutters and remove any rough edges with
a metal file.
17. For best weather resistance, caulk around the exterior frame and inside the threshold where the frames meet.
18. If you removed your door from its hinges, rehang it now.

Train your pet

19. Lift the flaps or tape them open as you use praise and treats
to encourage your pet to go through the pet door (K).
It may help if you are on one side of the door and your pet is on
the other. Do not force your pet through the pet door.
20. After your pet has gone through the pet door a few times, allow
the flaps to touch your pet's back so he will become comfortable
using the pet door on his own.
