Infrared Pet Doors

If you've decided on a pet door for your dog or cat, you should know about the most recent innovations in this industry. Infrared pet doors are one of the newest and most popular types of pet doors because they offer so many advantages over the traditional flap style dog or cat door. Two of the most common concerns pet owners have when installing a pet door are home security and access for unwanted animals. The infrared type of door eliminates these concerns because they are designed not to compromise home security or allow strays indoors. If you have young children their security may be a concern also, however infrared doors also keep them safely indoors while allowing pets to go out.

Unlike many flap style doors the infrared door offers a durable barrier against animal and even human intruders. This barrier shield can be locked for maximum door security however your pet can open it with the sensor on their collar. This sensor is actually a state of the art infrared key that has been coded digitally and corresponds to the sensor on the door. If you have more than one pet and want certain pets to stay inside and certain pets to have outdoor access this style of pet door is ideal. Infrared doors are also great for small pets who aren't strong enough to push through a heavy flap door.

The average infrared door takes a CR2 lithium battery to operate the sensor on the collar. The door itself needs AA batteries in order to operate. While changing batteries can be a hassle it is worth it for pet owners who want the best for their animals. These doors often feature a variety of options that can be set, such as In or Out Only, Locked and Unlocked. While there are plenty of advantages, consumers should consider potential disadvantages also. These doors can bang when your pet enters and exits unless you find one that advertises quiet operation. And, they can cost as much as $300.

The cost and features of infrared pet doors vary depending on the manufacturer, model and where you are shopping. You can purchase these doors at Petco, PetSmart and a variety of online stores. They make infrared doors for dogs and cats of all sizes. The infrared sensor door is ideal for your feline because they don't have to push through the door. Some doors are made especially for dogs, some are made especially for cats and others can accommodate both dogs and cats depending on their size.
