Short Answer
Don't worry - your Mesh Patio Pet Door is not faulty.
A protective film is applied to certain components during manufacturing to help prevent scratches and damage during shipping. This film should be removed before use.
What Does the Protective Film Look Like?
Depending on the component and production batch, the film may appear:
Cloudy or frosted
Slightly blue in colour
Clear but peeling at the edges
This is normal and does not indicate a defect.
Where Is the Protective Film Applied?
Protective film may be present on:
Clear Weather Panels
Painted frame sections
The film is used to protect surfaces during manufacturing, transport, and handling.
What Should I Do?
Carefully peel the protective film away from both sides of the affected component.
Once removed, the surface underneath should appear clear, smooth, and free from the cloudy appearance.
