A electronic dog door can be powered by batteries or by plugging it to a
regular home electrical outlet. This door uses state of the art technology in
order to give your pet a greater degree of freedom. These doors are specially
designed and will only open for the dog that is wearing a special collar piece.
With this system, no other animal will be able to get into your house. An
electronic pet door costs more than other types of pet doors, but they are worth
the price.
Unlike regular pet doors, automatic pet doors will let your dog come in and go
out whenever it wants, but unlike regular pet doors, they will not only keep
other animals out, but also water from rain and dust from the street. Also,
while both types of pet doors let your dog inside, only the electronic pet door
will close after your dog is inside, which might save it from other dogs or
cruel children.
How These Doors Work
The specific design may vary from model to model, but they all usually work on
the same principle. The dog has to wear a collar, which in turn emits an
infrared or a magnetic frequency; this frequency can be picked up by the door's
sensors and it causes the door to open.
It doesn't matter if your dog approaches the door from inside the house or
outside of it; the door will open itself and then it will lock itself again.
There are some types which include a remote control that let the owner keep the
door closed or opened regardless of where the collar is.
One of the unique features about an electronic pet door is that people cannot
activate the door because the high-tech sensors can detect the difference
between an animal and a person
Price
Most are reasonably priced starting at around $40 dollars but depending on the
various features selected they can cost up to $700 dollars
Other features include battery back up and different locking options.
The electronic dog door is powered by normal electrical current or by batteries. It locks after the dog comes in, keeping animals and rain outside. Depending on your specific electronic pet door model, you may get different features.
