The electronic dog door is powered either by batteries, electrical plugs or
by both. This door uses state of the art technology in order to give your pet a
greater degree of freedom. These doors are specially designed and will only open
for the dog that is wearing a special collar piece. This will keep other animals
and potential crooks from entering the house. Naturally, these types of
automatic dog doors are more expensive, but their benefits justify it.
One of the advantages of these doors is that, unlike regular pet doors, they
can't be pushed open and will always be closed, keeping water and snow from
coming into the house. Also, while both types of pet doors let your dog inside,
only the electronic pet door will close after your dog is inside, which might
save it from other dogs or cruel children.
How These Doors Work
There are various kinds of doors but they generally function in the same way. It
works by either using an infra-red or a magnetic electronic frequency
transmission which is sent from a collar or tag worn by the pet and which
signals the door to open.
Whether the dog comes from inside or outside the house, the door will open for
the pet and then it will lock itself again. Some models also include a remote
control which allows the owner to open and close the door and leave it like
that, regardless of the dog's movements.
A electronic pet door has sensors that can even detect the size of the being
that approaches it, telling human from animal, and thus it won't open for
burglars, even if they somehow get hold of the collar.
Price
Price will not only depend on the material and size of the automatic dog door,
but also on the number of features it has, with prices ranging from $40 to up to
$700.
Electronic dog doors are very safe for a pet to use and most are also very
secure and offer various features such as a variety of locking options and
styles such as wall, door or patio door mounted
The electronic dog door is powered by normal electrical current or by batteries. It locks after the dog comes in, keeping animals and rain outside. Depending on your specific electronic pet door model, you may get different features.
