Parts
- Sash Window Pet Door
- Foam Weather Strip
- Center Post Weather Seal Draft Stopper
- Screwdriver
Tools
- Flathead Screwdriver
Please read instructions & notes thoroughly before installation.
Step 1 Release Spring Mechanism
- Loosen the width adjustment locks at the end of the pet door insert with the screwdriver. This allows the spring mechanism to move freely from side to side.
Step 2 Check Panel Fit
- Insert the sash into the window track. Push against the spring mechanism and swing the opposite end into the opposite window track. Gently release. Tighten the width adjustment locks.
Step 3 Apply Weatherstripping
- Remove panel from window track.
- Apply the foam weather-stripping by peeling back the paper and exposing the adhesive. Unroll it along the edge of the sash, pressing to ensure it adheres. Install on both the top and the bottom. Trim to fit with scissors.
Step 4 Mount Seal Draft Stopper
- Mount the Center Post Weather Seal Draft Stopper. This strip prevents air from leaking between the window frame when raised to accommodate the sash. Trim to fit with scissors.
- Put the panel back into the window track. Tighten width adjustment locks.
Switch the Side of the Flap
You can switch which side of the sash panel the pet door flap is on to best fit your home.
Step 1
- Remove the screws on the top and bottom closest to the edge of the pet door. Then slightly loosen the screws closest to the glass. Next, slide off the side piece, then the flap assembly.
Step 2
- Rotate the flap assembly (essentially flipping it upside down) then slide it back in. Make sure the locking cover is on the same side as the width adjustment locks.
Step 3
- Replace the end spacer and screws.
LOCKING YOUR WINDOW
For a permanent lock, install a wood screw in the track immediately above the window on both sides. You will no longer be able to raise the window. For a temporary lock, place a removable wooden dowel or Charley bar in either track above the window, shown in Detail 1.
HEIGHT OF YOUR WINDOW
Make sure you place steps or ramps leading to your pet’s door at a height that works! When they go through the flap, the top of the flap should be at least 1" (2,5 cm) higher than the top of their back. Watch your pet and adjust as needed to keep them comfortable.

FAQ
What do I need to know/measure before I order?First raise up your window and check that it can go up far enough to be left with an opening 18 1/2" high. Next measure the width of the track from left to right, including going inside the track on both sides. Last measure how wide the track is that the window slides in (needs to be at least 1") |
How wide does the track have to be for the Thermo Sash 3e to fit?Track width needs to be at least 1" thick. |
Can I choose what side the door is on?It comes standard on the left, if you are looking from the inside of the house. You can switch it to the other side if you need and that only requires a screwdriver. |
Will this door be good for more extreme weather?The Thermo Sash 3e has the Endura Flap which is far better in sealing and durability than other models. Dual pane lo-e glass offers superior insulation value. Therefore, the Thermo Sash will be a much more reliable and longer lasting option then the more inexpensive options. |
Is it possible to make one that fits a window smaller than 22"?We can, the only thing is that we would not be able to use glass so there would be quite a bit of aluminum and some customers are not happy with the aesthetics. This would also fall under the custom and non-returnable category. |
My cat is having a hard time opening the flap is there something I can do that would make it easier?You can by removing some of the magnets. On the videos tab check out the "Adjusting Magnet Strength for Training." |
What if I mis-measured?If you've mismeasured, you may be able to fix it. To make your sash cat door about 1" wider, you may purchase a width extension (or make your own using 1" x lumber). To make your window kitty door insert slightly shorter you may trim the side flanges on the spring loaded adjustment piece with a hacksaw or a jigsaw with a metal cutting blade. |
What does custom mean?Any of the Thermo Sash doors with "Custom" listed means that the door is built to order and therefore it is non-returnable. |
Can I get a custom height?We can only do custom widths, not custom heights. |
