The Pride Patio Pet Door for sliding glass door
may be installed in either a temporary manner or it may be
fastened into the track with sheet metal screws for a
'semi-permanent' installation. The instructions cover both
possibilities.
The height adjustment range is 781/2"
- 81". This range is adjusted with two extension pieces--one at
the top and one at the bottom--which fit over the main framing.
These each may be adjusted upward or downward and each is fixed
in placed with two sheet metal screws. The user drills these
holes to properly position the screws.
The flap is a heavy duty, durable black
rubber. The locking cover is white enameled fiberboard which may
be placed on either side. It should be used on the same side as
the dog. Glass is 1/8"
clear tempered.
Notice in particular that Pride offers the
broadest array of colors and a consistent 4" rise in all sizes.
Also, please note that the Pride patio panel does not include center
post weather strip ("draft stopper"). We think you'll want this and have included
it as a 'cross sell' option in our shopping cart. The sides of
the panel are fully weather-stripped out of the box with a nice,
black rubber weather strip. Locking of the
sliding glass door against the Pride panel is done with an
included pin lock which is very effective.
Frame thickness is 3/8"
except at the height adjustments very top and very bottom which
are 1/2"
thick.
There are quite a few details that might be important for you to think about
