Understanding the Height Guide

Top Extensions

Top Extensions increase the overall height of the pet door to fit taller sliding doors.

Each Top Extension adds:

350 mm (13.8 inches)

Maximum:

2 Top Extensions

Bottom Risers

Bottom Risers raise the flap entry height for taller pets and homes with raised tracks or steps.

Each Bottom Riser adds:

75 mm (3 inches)

Maximum:

2 Bottom Risers

Bottom Risers also increase the total installed height of the unit.

Important Considerations

Extensions are size-specific
Small extensions fit Small doors only
Medium extensions fit Medium doors only
Large extensions fit Large doors only

Because sliding door openings vary between homes, customers should always measure their own door before purchasing.

Helpful Tip

If your sliding door height is close to the upper limit, combining Top Extensions and Bottom Risers can help achieve a better fit. Keep in mind that Bottom Risers also raise the flap entry (step-over) height, so they are generally best suited for taller pets
