Yes, you can install the Deluxe Aluminium Pet Door into double-glazed glass, but the installation must be carried out by a qualified glazier.
If installing into a sliding door, please check that you will still have enough clearance to operate the door normally. The Deluxe Aluminium frame protrudes approximately 8 mm (0.3 inches) from the glass surface.
Important things to consider before installation:
- Glass Cutting:
Double-glazed units are more complex than single-pane glass. They are made up of two layers of glass separated by a sealed air gap. Cutting into this type of glass requires specialised equipment and expertise, and it is generally more expensive than cutting single-pane glass.
- Energy Efficiency:
Modifying double-glazed glass can impact its insulating properties. Make sure any tunnel partitions of the pet door are installed correctly and sealed thoroughly to help maintain the energy efficiency of your door or window.
If you have any questions about installation, we recommend discussing the project directly with your chosen glazier before proceeding.
