New High Tech Electronic Pet Door

Pet Door

Pet Doors USA’s latest idea is a technological twist on the pet door that combines convenience with security and safety – for pet owners and pets alike.

Plexidor Pet Doors offers the Plexidor Electronic that opens exclusively for your pet via a wearable pass code “collar key”. It’s like having a personalized garage door and electronic opener specifically for your dog–and your dog is the only one with the electronic opener code.

How Does it Work?
“Collar keys” are programmed, simply clip one to your pet’s collar.  The technology in the door reads and recognizes the code as the pet approaches the door and allows entrance.  The pet door panel slides up and down like a mini-garage door.

The Plexidor collar key is actually an RFID chip. This leading-edge technology is passive, requires no batteries and allows you to have as many of your pets to use the door without ever have to worry about the neighbors’ pets or wild animals coming in your pet door. The RFID tag is also waterproof, shockproof and very rugged.

The Plexidor Electronic Door itself is sturdy, rust-proof, energy efficient and does not blow open like most mud flap pet doors.  The product is made with aluminum framing and high impact ABS panels, the same material used for football helmets. A safety mechanism prevents the door from closing while obstructed, preventing pinched tails, paws or fingers. 

The Plexidor Electronic Pet Door is available in bronze and white, and
various sizes to match all pets. The product line ranges in prices from $129 to $800 depending on size and model. They can be purchased direct or through dealers, and are also available at: www.dogdoors.com or by calling 800-749-9609.

    Hi Steve:
    Depending on how handy you are, hiring a contractor/general laborer might be the best way to go with the door installation.
