Staywell Dog Doors

Many dealers on the Internet carry Staywell dog doors. The well-known English company (Mason Cash) is known for manufacturing quality products, from basic, simple, and small animal doors to electronic doors. The small animal doors feature two- or four-way locking, along with a security panel and rigid, see-through flaps that reassure the pet. They are the only size that should be fitted into a glass door.

Some styles of Staywell doors are only suitable for large dogs because they are difficult for smaller pets to open. The size "large" generally means dogs weighing 80 to 85 pounds, although classification can vary. "Extra-large" dogs weigh up to 150 pounds. Reliable door styles for the bigger breeds include infrared, where a special key on the dog's collar unlocks the door as the animal walks up to it. The door does not open automatically, but once unlocked, the dog can push through it.

Some dog doors don't require a sensor or key for the dog to go through them from the inside. The key is only needed when the dog decides to come back in. This keeps out unwanted wild or stray animals, but it is a matter of choice for the owner. If you do not want all of your pets to have access to the backyard, you will need to choose the style of door that requires a sensor for both exit and entrance. The Staywell Infra Red Dog Door has that kind of control. On the other hand, you may want a dog door with electronic features that can be turned off, so it can be operated manually.

Frames for Staywell dog doors used to be available in white only, but multiple colors (such as grey, bronze or woodgrain) are now available, depending on the style ordered. For customers located worldwide, extra keys and collars for the traditional doors are available in blue, green, pink and yellow, OR in brown, black, red, and white, depending on which website you visit! No matter which style of dog door an owner chooses, installing a door can make life less stressful for dog and owner alike.
