2C Cut out template for Non-Glass Doors. Match the

the door.

Cut Pet Door Opening

3A Drill ½” (13mm) holes in inside corners and center of

bottom curve of drawn template.

Helpful Tip: Use both hands to hold drill steady and

straight at a 90° angle.

3B Beginning in one of the holes just drilled, cut along the

drawn template lines. After cutting out the opening, you

may need to recut to square the opening. This is necessary

for the pet door frame to ﬁt correctly.

Helpful Tip: Apply masking or painter’s tape on bottom

of jigsaw and outer edges of drawn template to protect

door ﬁnish. Use a ﬁle to remove burrs after drilling and

cutting to make cutting and installation easier.

Helpful Tip: Use proper saw blade length and type

according to door thickness and material (for example

a wood blade for a wood door and a metal blade for a

metal door). Cut slowly using both hands to hold the saw

steady and straight at a 90° angle. This will help prevent

the blade from cutting unevenly between interior and

exterior sides of the door.

NOTICE

When applying cutting template there should be

a minimum of 3” between the bottom and sides

of the door and the outer edge of the cutting

template to maintain the structural integrity of

the door.

Step

NOTICE

Make sure there is nothing underneath the door

where you will be drilling the holes or cutting

out opening.
