Patio Pet Door vs. the Competition
Until now, you had few choices.
Cutting a hole in your wall or installing a "Pet Panel" were the only options. Pet Panels are
built by numerous manufacturers and all function generally the same way:
| Blocks Entry |
|
They:
- Are unattractive
- Block your entry and view
- Require secondary locks
- May interfere with home security systems and require expensive modifications
- Create drafts
|
| Will not latch |
|
When the door is closed:
- Patio handle will not latch
- Needs secondary lock or stick
- Appears partially open when actually closed
- Can be expensive. Double pane models can cost $600.00 or more.
|
| Air Leaks |
|
- Air gaps can let in insects and outside air
- Requires unattractive rubber gaskets to seal
|
