We’re absolutely in love with this door! Our cats like their freedom and we don’t like to open the door every 2 minutes haha so this was perfect for us! One of our favorite features is the possibility to lock and unlock the door with our phones and the notifications every time they go in and out. It comes with a key and the door only opens when it detects the key. We followed the instructions to i Bianca · petsafe.com
