At Moore Pet Supplies, we do our best to stay on top of the various types of Ideal products on the market. The pet experts over at Ideal Pet Products are always trying to come up with the next big type of pet door, and we’re ready for the day when they do so. There’s a few things to keep in mind when you’re shopping for this kind of gear. First off, you’ll want to see what some other pet owners might have thought about using these kinds of doors.

Customer Experience with Ideal Pet Products

Customers prefer this product as they are easy to put into place as well as remove when you want to use the full opening of your slider. Sliding glass doors tend to have an average opening of 3 ft. When any patio pet door is installed, there is a loss of space, therefore the Ideal Patio Pet Door is a great choice for function as well as user flexibility.

This updated pet door design incorporates a floating magnetic strip along the base of the pet door opening for increased seal to the flap when in the closed position. Depending on the exact size of door that you’re trying to cover, there are 3-sided exterior flaps that you could invest in. These would be the most effective choice for those who are starting to build professional kennel doors. On the other hand, there are also even larger 4-sided professional kennel door pieces for those who want an even more complete seal. Individuals are free to select whichever might be the most appropriate for their particular situation.

Ideal Dog Door Installation

Many customers choose the Ideal Patio Pet Door because it is so easily installed and removed. Any patio insert will take up space in the opening for your door, but the Ideal Patio Insert can be removed at a moment’s notice to accommodate guests or to lock up for the night. No hardware or tools are necessary. That means you can swap it out whenever necessary. It’s a great way to help you get a little fresh air with your favorite furred friend before pulling it back in for the night and giving them a break.

That’s best not only for professionals, but also for those who just want to work with a more traditional patio arrangement. Some pet owners will want to make sure that their dogs can get out to a patio area while others may find that they have large doors that their dogs can head out through even though they don’t have a laid out patio. Regardless of how your home is arranged, you should find that one of these standard sized pieces of equipment will fit the bill.

Patio Doors from Ideal Pet Products

Over the years, Ideal Pet Products have started to produce a series of patio doors that should help you give your dog the room he or she needs to run without putting them in any sort of harm’s way. That’s a particularly attractive option for those who already have pre existing patio areas and want to make sure that their animals will be able to gain access to the outside whenever necessary. Over time, these have been further refined so you can be sure that they’re going to work as intended if installed properly.

Best of all, these are relatively easy to install, so you shouldn’t run into any situation where you wouldn’t be able to do the work yourself. Should you need to do any adjustments, then these should be easy to do as well. Even those who are working with bigger pieces of equipment shouldn’t run into too much difficulty. Accessories like a cable bite guard may be added to the system relatively easily. They’ve even made other accessories, like a cat hole, which can be installed on a more permanent basis than the patio door fittings would.

That being said, you might need some assistance with the purchasing process. If you need any further information, then don’t hesitate to contact us online at Moore Pet Supplies.

Ideal FastFit Patio Inserts

The overall width of an Ideal Patio Panel will be approximately four (4) inches greater than the width of the pet opening. For example, a patio panel with a 7" wide x 11.25" high pet opening will be approximately 11 inches wide.

View of Top Section / Spec Info			View of Bottom Section / Spec Info
The top spring-loaded adjusting section of the Patio Pet Door appears as an "H" piece when viewed from the side. The overall width of this piece is 13/16" (Will fit into most any sliding glass door track). The spring-loaded adjustment provides for a 2.5" range for proper fitting into your opening. Most top tracks in sliding glass doors do not have any center rails, however, if you do have this feature then the Insert can straddle any rail at the top 5/8" wide or narrower. The spring-loaded top is secured with 2 thumbscrew locks, accessible from the interior only, so that someone from the exterior of the house would not be able to compress or remove the unit.			The bottom section of the Ideal Patio Pet Door has an overall width of 5/8". A semi-circle, "C" channel is centered and runs the length of the bottom. This "C" channel is design to straddle the center rail in the channel on the floor that your sliding glass door follows. By straddling this center rail, the Ideal Patio Pet Door will remain centered to the frame of your sliding door when closed to this unit. Note: If the center rail in the channel on the floor is wider than 5/16", then this patio Insert will not be able to straddle it and as a result may not fit properly in your opening
These Patio Inserts are a stock items and ship within 24 hours (business days), custom models require 1-3 business days to fabricate. All units ship via UPS. Measuring for the Patio Pet Door: To determine which height range will work with your slider, open the slider and measure from the very bottom inside track to the very top inside track. As you look down on the groove that the slider follows on the floor, you may see a thin rail. You will want to measure down past that rail, from the deepest part of the channel on the floor to the very top inside channel above. Will These Patio Pet doors fit all Sliding Doors? As you look at the track on the floor your slider follows; you most often will see a "rail". If this "rail" is narrower than 5/8" (as you look down on it), then the Ideal Patio Insert should fit your slider. (We cannot guarantee fits as manufacturers are constantly coming out with new designs, but call us if you have any questions at 1-800-829-7876). What is the Rise?: This is the distance that the bottom of the pet opening is positioned off of the ground and the distance that the pet will have to step over to use the pet door.There are several different rise options available (2.5, 4, 8, and 12 inches) to accommodate different pets. (Note: Larger rise options are not available on smaller pet openings). Draft Stopper / Weather stripping: The draftstopper is a wide vinyl weather stripping section that attaches to the back side of your sliding door. When an insert is installed, your sliding door breaks the seal between the slider and fixed panel. This weather stripping will seal out any drafts. Adjustable Height Range: The top section of the Ideal Patio Pet Door floats on two tension rods that compress or expand to obtain the best possible fit in the patio door frame. The top is fit into the upper patio slider track and the bottom rests on the bottom slider track. Once in place, there are two thumb bolts that lock the top section into place to prevent the Patio Pet door from being removed from the outside.   How does my Sliding Door Lock? Each Patio Pet Door comes with a locking pin mechanism to use if you choose. We strongly suggest bracing the door with a stick or an adjustable brace bar; as this immobilizes your slider and is the most effective way to secure your sliding door. Different ways to Install the Patio Pet Door: The Ideal Patio Pet Door can be mounted on the stationary side of the patio door. Many patio doors have stoppers that normally prevent the stationary panel from moving. If these stoppers can be removed, the stationary panel can be moved to accommodate the patio panel. Note: This technique will not work on patio doors where the stationary panel is molded into the frame. Extensions for "Custom" Ranges: Ideal makes 3 different height ranges of patio pet doors: Regular, Shorty & Tall. For customers who have a slider height that falls between these 3 ranges, we have custom extensions made so that we can fit any height from 75" to 106" tall. These extensions slide in at the top of the insert. Some customers use a couple of screws to stabilize the extension piece. (See picture in chart below for custom extension piece) Weather Seal Foam Bumper: Each Patio Pet Door comes with a foam bumper so your slider will gently rest against the Patio Pet door. This foam bumper will also help to seal out drafts and bugs. Security Panel to Lock Pet Opening: The Ideal Patio Pet Door also comes with a slide-in panel to restrict pet access.
