What Is Your Ideal Pet Doors?
By Tsuyoshi E. Suzuki

Do you know what type of pet door is ideal for you, your situation and your pet's individual tastes? Dog and cat doors are actually available in a myriad of different materials, colors, shapes, sizes, levels of security, and frames. All of these factors need to be considered before you finally choose which type of pet door is the ideal option for your home. When it comes to choosing your ideal pet doors, here are some really crucial considerations that you need to make.

- Which type of pet doors best meet your budget and level of experience? There is a careful balance between these two concepts: Sliding glass panel systems that fit seamlessly into your patio doors are easy to install, but costly. On the other hand, you can buy a simple metal frame pet door with a swinging flap for extremely cheap, but the installation is a lot more involved and will set you back a few hours of time. How much does time matter to you, or is cost the more important consideration to make?

- Is the brand you are considering well trusted or well known for providing products that are safe, convenient and durable? You are going to want to go with a well regarding, trustworthy brand that is going to provide you safety, security and durability.

- You need to choose a door system that is going to be appropriate in size. This relates not only to the size

of your door, but also to the size of your pet. If you are buying a pet door for a dachshund, then a small door is probably best. The same thing would go for buying a pet door for a cat or other small animal. But if you are buying a pet door for a Great Dane, or a Doberman puppy, you may want to resist the urge to purchase something as small as he is, and go with a bigger door instead.

- Choose a door that integrates well with the décor inside your home. If you are buying a sliding glass door panel pet door, then it will already blend in pretty well. If your décor is mainly black and silver and you buy a bright red pet door, it may stand out a little more than you intended. Go with something neutral and simple, so that it works well with your décor and the theme of your home.

- Consider the level of security that you are looking for. If you need to be able to lock your pet in or out, then a door with a sliding lock or a magnetic lock may be best. If on the other hand you are more worried about cats sneaking out through the dog door, you may want to invest in a pet door that only lets certain animals through. These types of pet doors usually have collars that correspond with them, so that only the animals with the collars on can pass through the door. This will keep unwanted animals out, and cherished animals in when necessary.
