The Power Pet door was first conceived by our company president, Nick Bonge way back in 1986. Since then it has gone through extensive research, development and field testing and has continuously been improved and perfected all along the way. From its inception, the early Power Pet door incorporated the essential principles that make this electronic pet door unique and superior by design - a slim, compact dc motor drive that uses a cable to lift a lightweight pet panel, then return the panel slowly and safely with a brake-assisted gravity feed.
Our first production version, the PP series, introduced in 2000, used a welded aluminum extrusion for its basic construction. While some of our competitors seemed to like the inexpensive tooling approach of the welded aluminum enough to copy it, High Tech Pet invested millions into developing the tooling necessary to produce a truly professionally engineered, and manufactured product built for superior performance and extraordinary reliability.
In 2005, we introduced the PX series of Power Pet doors, which uses an engineered ABS plastic composite that is actually stronger and more precise than its metal predecessor. Our VP of Engineering, Bob Schilken, one of the most accomplished analog electronic engineers in the world, contributed the extremely creative directional ultrasonic detection circuitry that performs rings around conventional infrared, magnetic and RFID circuits. Bob's ingenious circuitry reliably opens the door only for your pet's collar and only when your pet is on a direct approach, not when just wandering by or sleeping next to the door.
The other key element that makes the Power Pet door unique is its extremely efficient, compact and quiet running DC gear-motor drive system. While the AC motor drives used in would-be competing products are cheaper and easier to employ, our engineers developed a sophisticated "puse-width-modulated" DC gear-motor drive that runs quick, cool and quiet while being small enough to allow the Power Pet door to have a very slim, attractive profile. This allows the door to be surface mounted making it very easy to install with an attractive, non-intrusive appearance in your home. Today, our new, improved PX-1 and PX-2 electronic doggie and kitty doors incorporate the latest developments in electro-mechanical engineering making Power Pet doors truly,
