Can I Install a Patio Pet Door in a Window?

Short Answer

Sometimes.

The Mesh Patio Pet Door may be suitable for some window installations if the opening height and track are compatible.

The Glass Patio Pet Door is not suitable for window installations.

Mesh Patio Pet Door

The Mesh Patio Pet Door can sometimes be installed in a window if:

• The opening height falls within the supported size range
• The window has a suitable track for the pet door to sit within
• The window can close firmly against the pet door frame
  
  

The minimum opening height is 1400 mm (55.1 inches).

The pet door must be installed vertically and cannot be installed horizontally.

Glass Patio Pet Door

The Glass Patio Pet Door is designed for full-height sliding door openings and is not suitable for window installations.

Important Considerations

Not all window styles are compatible.

Generally, the following window types are not suitable:

• Fixed windows

• Awning windows

• Casement windows

Because every window design is different, customers should always measure their opening and confirm compatibility before purchasing.
