Dog & Cat Doors – Pet Screens
Dog doors, cat doors, and pet screens are important home improvement features for any local pet owner. Keeping up with the constant in-and-out of an active, energetic dog or cat can be a nuisance. In fact, owners who fail to meet their pet’s needs may find themselves with expensive screen repairs. Knowing how to keep your pet happy can help you save money on replacement screens.
Screens can suffer shredding from the claws of your pets. This significantly weakens the screens, and potentially leaves a hole for escape. Fortunately, we offer pet screens that are durable — far beyond the strength of regular screens. Pet screens and doors are designed with the destructive potential of pets in mind. The materials used are strong, and resistant to the claws of a cat or the brute strength of a dog.
Pet doors or screens are constructed from polyester yarn coated with PVC, making them about seven times stronger than regular screens. By comparison, cheaper enclosures and screen doors are constructed with the same lightweight materials used to make window screens. If you have a dog or cat, it’s vital to invest in a pet screen for areas in your home like a pool or patio enclosure.
Customized Dog Doors and Cat Doors
Back in the early days of pet amenities, dog and cat doors were as basic as a simply cut hole in a door with a rubber flap to prevent rain and, hopefully, other animals from coming in. But times have changed! We can customize dog and cat doors to meet the needs of both the pet and the owner! If your pet wants to get out of your house through a particular screen door or window, you can simply install a dog or cat door in that window or screen door. In fact you can put a dog or cat door practically anywhere. Here are some of the places pet doors can be installed:
- Traditional Glass Doors
- Sliding Glass Doors
- French Doors
- Walls
We also offer automatic and electric pet doors!
This kind of product is a good demonstration of the old saying, “if you can’t beat them, join them.” If your pet can’t resist the temptation to leave through a screen, then you can simply make it possible for your pet to leave through that screen — without doing any damage.
Security Cat and Dog Doors
You may find the idea of a pet door in a large city like Los Angeles to be somewhat unsettling. After all, if your dog can get in through the door, what’s to stop an intruder (be it either the four or two-footed variety) from coming in the same way?
Never fear! There are now pet security doors that open only for your pet, and no one else. Some pet doors use wireless technology, which allows you to let your pet in and out at the touch of a button. Other security systems require your pet to wear a special collar that sends a signal to the door. When your pet approaches the door, it opens.
Pet Proof Screens
If you’re not interested in allowing your pet to access the out of doors without your permission, then replacing your current or damaged screen with pet proof or resistant screening may be the answer.
Pet proof insect screening is tear and puncture-resistant to prevent damage by dogs and cats. Ideal for use in high-traffic areas, the screen installs like regular insect screening and is excellent for use in patio/porch enclosures and windows and doors.
