Automatic Dog Doors

What is the best auto dog door? The highest quality automatic doggie door on the market today is the Plexidor RFID doggie door, which is available in both a door mount and wall mount version.  Plexidor RFID pet doors use a waterproof programmable collar key worn around your pet's neck to activate the door.  When the door is activated by the collar key a motor slides open the pet door just like a garage door.  America's Pet Store has seen very few problems with this dog door, however, it is the most expensive of the auto dog doors on the market.   High Tech Pet manufactures the Power Pet automatic pet door, which uses ultra sonic technology.  Electro-magnetic and magnetic dog doors utilize magnetic technology to unlock the dog door. 

If you are considering purchasing an automatic pet door, it should be for one of the following reasons. 

1.) You have a baby that you are worried about crawling out the dog door.  Automatic dog doors are effectively locked when not in use, making it much more difficult for a toddler to escape the house through your dog door. 

2.) You want to keep certain pets in your house while providing outside access to your pets wearing the dog door transmitter.*

3.) You are concerned about stray and wild animals entering your house through your dog door.  Automatic dog doors are an excellent way to keep feral cats and raccoons out of your house. 

4.) You are looking for added security for your house above and beyond the simple security panel provided with most standard vinyl flap dog doors.

*IMPORTANT: Automatic doors that are magnetic DO NOT prevent unauthorized exit from your home. They only prevent unauthorized entry to your home. If you are concerned with a toddler or unauthorized pet exiting your home, be sure you get an electronic (not magnetic) automatic pet door.

If you don't have one of the reasons above for purchasing an automatic dog door, America's Pet Store recommends evaluating the large number of manual dog doors we carry.  Since all automatic pet doors contain electronics, they all have the possibility to malfunction, unlike manual dog doors.  Additionally, you need to be aware that many of the automatic dog doors use batteries.  It is important to keep a supply of batteries on hand and change your batteries when recommended by the manufacturer as these automatic dog doors will not function once the collar transmitter or dog door battery dies.
