Hale Pet Doors, with their self-framing design, can be installed in any type of door--wood, metal, raised panel, cross panel, hollow core, fiberglass or steel skin. As an installer for Hale Pet Doors, we will provide you with the step-by-step instructions you need to get the job done. The tools you need will vary depending on the type of door. Basically you will need a drill to start the rough opening and to drill the screw holes, some type of saw to finish cutting out the rough opening and a screwdriver to insert the screws. In addition, the following items will be good to have in your toolbox to help you do a professional job of installing our pet doors: drop cloths, tape measure, pencil, level, hammer, chisel, putty knife, finishing nails, safety glasses, blue painters tape, and caulk.
