POWER PET doors increase home security with a special automatic, deadbolt locking feature that guards against would-be intruders. Only the
coded signal from your pet’s collar will open the Power Pet door.
Only Power Pet doors feature an ingenious directional sensing system
that operates a fully automatic, motor driven panel. The signal emitted
from your pet’s collar tells the Power Pet door how far away your pet is
and the direction in which your pet is traveling. This allows the Power
Pet to work like magic, opening only when your pet is on a direct ap-
proach, not when it is just wandering by and not when it is sitting or
sleeping next to the door.
ALL NEW DESIGN!
After selling thousands of our original POWER PET, PP
models we are very pleased to introduce our All New, com-
pletely redesigned and restyled PX Model. We listened to
the feedback of hundreds of customers and threw in a few
ingenious, new ideas of our own to bring you the ultimate
combination of security, style and convenient features.
The PX model, which features an extremely slim design, is
less than 2 inches deep. This allows it to be mounted ush
to your door or wall. You cut a hole only as large as the door
panel itself, then mount your POWER PET door in front of
the opening. You will nd it is actually easier to install a
POWER PET door than a conventional pet door and certainly
easier than installing a “between the studs type door”
The PX is constructed of an ultra-high strength ABS composite housing with a bullet-proof Lexan plastic door panel, giving you
and your pet the ultimate in security. The Lexan panel is mounted on a
sliding, air-tight seal for the best wind, rain and foul weather protection
of any pet door made.
This new, absolutely state of the art design represents unquestionably
the most advanced, most reliable, most stylish pet door made anywhere.
In fact, your new POWER PET Fully Automatic Pet Door will be the most
sophisti cated appliance your pet will ever own!

PET COLLAR
OPERATED
Only the amazing POWER
PET door uses our Patented
directional ultrasonic sensing system. This system
has great advantages over
magnetic or radio transmitter collars.
Magnetic collars have a
very limited range making
it tough to train the pet to
operate the door. Radio
systems have good range but
open whenever the animal is
within that range, even if the
pet is sitting, sleeping or just
wandering by.
The Power Pet’s directional ultrasonic system overcomes these problems. The Pet worn ultrasonic collar emits a highly directional signal,
which is received by the microphone only when your pet is directly facing the door opening. The unit is not likely to trigger if your pet is just
wandering by.
Typically the ultrasonic signal is bounced off the ground in the direction which your pet is facing. This means that surfaces which are highly
reective such as tile and linoleum will result in a longer working range
than acoustically absorbent surfaces such as carpeting. Consult the
ADJUSTING RANGE CONTROLS section for instructions on setting the
desired opening range.

INSTALLATION
MOUNTING YOUR POWER
PET DOOR
Your POWER PET door mounts ush
to any door or wall. The hardest
part of installing the POWER PET
door is cutting the hole. If the unit is
to be mounted in a door up to 1 ¾“
thick there is no framing necessary.
The pre-made Outer Frame that
came with your POWER PET door will
provide a nished look to the opening. If you are installing your POWER
PET door in a wall, it is advisable to
build a frame around the opening or
order our convenient WALL ADAPTER TUNNEL. The hole dimensions
given are for the nished opening
not including the frame. Dimensions of the frame you build should be
added to the opening size to determine the nal size of the hole you cut
in your wall.

INSTALLING YOUR POWER PET DOOR
This is the easy part. Install the POWER PET and Outside Frame as

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES:
a) When installing the inside mounting screws, make sure they are
only moderately tight. Over tightening will cause your Power
Pet door housing to conform to any irregularities in the at-
ness of your door or wall and will cause the door panel to slow,
stick or malfunction. Just tighten the screws until they stop. That
