Install Pet Door
5A.
Optional:
If the door cut-out thickness (T) is 1” (25 mm) or more,
insert the screw guides into the screw holes on the backside of the
interior frame (frame with ap and 4-way lock). The screw guides
help guide the screws through the screw holes from the interior
frame to the exterior frame.
Fit
Check
Before putting away your jigsaw, place the interior frame
(frame with ap and 4-way lock) inside the cut-out and check the t.
Then place the exterior frame (with assembled tunnel if needed for
your installation) into the underside of the cut-out to check the t. If the frames do not t
inside the opening, you may need to recut opening before proceeding with installation.
5B.
Before installing the pet door, you need to determine which screw
length is needed for your installation. Depending on your door
thickness, the screws may need to be trimmed with a hacksaw
or screw cutter. If the screws are too long, the nishing plugs will
not t. Use the Screw Selection Guide (Chart 2) to select which
screw to use and if it needs to be trimmed for your installation. To
trim screw, insert binder post onto end of screw to protect thread.
Using the binder post as a guide, cut screw to correct length with
a hacksaw. After cutting to length, remove the binder post to clean
screw threads. Repeat process with remaining screws.
