Editorial Reviews:
Product Description Because the panel is separate from the insert unit, the user who has a change in the size of his pet doesn't need to purchase an entire new pet door. He/she simply purchases a new insert with the appropriate size opening at considerably less expense. Just as important as the opening, of course, is the "rise" dimension. The Pet 1 Panel includes a user adjustable rise design (under license from Patio Pacific Inc) which allows a given flap opening to accommodate dogs of varying heights. For example, a Jack Russell Terrier and a Dachshund may both be happy with a medium sized opening but only if the opening is positioned higher for the Jack Russell and low for the Dachshund. At 18", the Pet 1 Product panel is one of the widest units you can buy which will decrease the room available to walk out your panel. Likewise, at 1.5" thick, there may be some sliding glass door tracks too narrow for this panel. Best to check before buying. However, the manufacturer specifies it for vinyl tracks which is a significant advantage.
