Customize your pet’s access in and out of your home. Electronic dog doors allow you to program the door to accommodate multiple pets. Some electronic doors are able to accommodate up to 20 pets. Schedule when you want your pets to go outside when it is in timer mode. If you wish, program the door so your pet can only come inside, or only go outside. Set the timer for the door to activate only when you want it to.
When your pet approaches the electronic door, it reads the unique signal emitted by the key on your pet’s collar. This triggers the flap to unlock and let your pet in or out. After your pet has passed through the door, the flap automatically locks back into place. Each key is programmed differently for each specific pet. This means that other pets or stray animals from outside won’t find their way into your home.
Electronic dog doors are a great solution for many common situations. For example, many people have an indoor cat, and a dog that needs to go outdoors. Having an automatic dog door makes that possible. Another thing you can do is let your pets out during the day and keep them indoors at night. You can even install one on your bedroom door, if you want to let your cat in but keep your dog out, for example.
