Installation into Single Pane Glass
The glazier should be consulted about where to cut the hole but owners should also consider factors such as the height of the dog's legs and whether or not they are fully grown. The dog should also be able to go through the dog door without having to jump up or crouch down.
The hole in the glass should be 385mm in diameter.
Installation into a Double Glazed Panel of Glass
A circular hole is simply cut by a competent glazier and your Transcat Dog door fitted in the following manner:
- The glazier should be consulted about where to cut the hole but owners should also consider factors such as the height of the dog's legs and whether or not they are fully grown. The dog should also be able to go through the dog door without having to jump up or crouch down.
- The hole in the glass should be 385mm in diameter. The hole should be sealed by the glazier to maintain the integrity of the double glazing.
- The two main parts of the Dog Door are then clamped with the glass between. Use the four bolts supplied. Longer bolts are available in lengths of 30, 35 and 40mm. IMPORTANT! Assemble the door so that the frame with the flap is on the outside.
- Nuts should be fitted finger tight only, to prevent unnecessary stress being place on the glass. This is sufficient to hold the door.
Using the Transcat Door with a sliding door
The thickness of the frame and of the ring is 4mm so with 6mm glass the protrusion will be limited to the nut and washer plus the remaining length of bolt that secures the ring & frame to the glass. That should be about 6mm (4mm for the nut & washer & 2mm of bolt thread). On the outside the locking device protrudes the most and will clear 8mm.
