2C Cut out template for Non-Glass Doors. Match the
marked lines on the door with the shoulder and center lines
on the template. Tape template in place and trace template.
Make sure to trace underneath tape and connect the
corners. Remove the template and any excess tape from the
door.
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.
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.
Make sure there is nothing underneath the door
where you will be drilling the holes or cutting
out opening.
