Can I Install Into the Super Touch Pet Door into Glass?

Yes, the Super Tough Pet Door can be installed into glass, but this must be done by a qualified glazier.

Single-Glazed Glass

• Installation into single-pane glass is straightforward for a glazier.

• The glazier will cut an opening to suit the pet door and secure it in place.

Double-Glazed Glass

• Double-glazed glass consists of two panes separated by an insulating air gap.

• Unlike single-pane glass, cutting into double glazing is not usually possible.

• In most cases, your glazier will need to replace the entire panel with a new double-glazed unit that has been custom-made with the correct opening for the pet door.

• This ensures you maintain the strength, safety, and insulating properties of the glass.

Important Considerations

• Sliding Doors: Ensure you will still have enough clearance for your sliding door to open and close normally once the pet door is installed.
  
  

• Frame Protrusion: The Super Tough frame sits approximately 7 mm (0.28 inches) out from the glass surface.
  
  

• Energy Efficiency: Modifying a double-glazed unit may slightly reduce insulation performance, so consult your glazier about the best approach.
  
  

• Consult a Glazier First: Always discuss your requirements with your glazier before proceeding to ensure the best fit and finish.
