Weather Stripping
The Weather Stripping helps form a seal between the
Deluxe Patio Panel and your sliding glass door.
1. Clean the leading edge of your sliding glass door.
2. Position the Weather Stripping at the top of the door.
3. Carefully peel the backing and press the Weather Stripping in
place as you move down to the bottom of the door.
4. Trim any excess with scissors.

Methods for Installation
Important: Drilling holes into your door frame may void the warranty on your
frame. Please refer to your door manufacturer’s warranty before drilling.
Since models of sliding glass doors differ, please review the choices below carefully. If
your sliding glass doorjamb has a recessed door track, you will need to use Method B.
Additional hardware may be purchased at most hardware stores.
Note: Installing screws into vinyl door frames or doorjambs may crack the vinyl.
Method A:
1. Along the top and bottom of the door frame, drill two 9/64" clearance holes through the
door frame.
2. Drill two 7/64" holes through into the Patio Panel.
3. Fasten the door frame to the Patio Panel using four #6 x 1/2" or longer sheet metal
screws depending on the thickness of your door track.
Note: Screws should be long enough to fasten the Patio Panel to the door frame, but not go through
or warp the track.
Method B:
Use an “L” bracket at the top and bottom of the Patio Panel.

Training Your Pet to Use the Door
Bring your pet to the Deluxe Patio Panel. Lift the vinyl flap a few inches and try to talk
your pet into going through. It may help for you to be on one side of the door and your
pet on the other. While on the other side of the door, call your pet. You may try persuading
your pet by holding a small piece of food or a treat on the opposite side of the door. If your
pet will not go through the door, DO NOT shove him through the door. Tape the flap in
the up position and wait for your pet to go through on his own.
