ABOUT HIGH TECH PET

Smart pet access.
Proven technology.

For more than 35 years, High Tech Pet has developed technology that gives pets greater freedom and their people greater peace of mind.  

We are the company behind Power Pet®—a family of fully automatic dog doors and smart pet doors engineered for comfortable access, security, and  dependable everyday operation.

Since 1986 Engineering Experience
Fully Automatic No Swinging Flaps or Doors
Smart Detect Directional Collar Activation
California Roots Engineered, Tested & Supported

INNOVATION BUILT ON EXPERIENCE

Pioneering electronic pet care since 1986.

High Tech Pet began with creative engineers who wanted to solve everyday problems for pets and their owners. Our innovations have spanned automatic pet doors, electronic training systems, bark control, and pet containment technology. 

Today, that experience drives our focus on smart pet access. Building a dependable electronic dog door takes more than adding electronics to an opening. The collar, sensors, motor, panel, controls, and locking system must work together through repeated use in real homes.

Power Pet has evolved through decades of engineering, manufacturing, testing, and customer feedback. Every new generation builds on that foundation.

From homebuilding professionals and technology reviewers to national television audiences, Power Pet has helped bring attention to a simple idea: better technology can give pets greater freedom and make everyday life easier for their people.

SMART DETECT TECHNOLOGY

A smarter way
to open the door.

A pet approaching the door should receive a different response from a pet simply resting nearby.

Power Pet’s Smart Detect technology uses a genuine MS-5® coded ultrasonic collar to sense your pet’s direct approach. Its directional signal helps the door respond to your pet’s intent to enter or exit, reducing unwanted activation as pets wander nearby.

The genuine collar and door are engineered as a matched transmitter-and-receiver system. That coordinated design is central to Power Pet’s responsive, dependable
automatic operation.

FULLY AUTOMATIC PET ACCESS

No swinging flaps or doors.

Power Pet opens a clear passage for your pet. Nothing for your pet to push with a nose, head, or shoulder, and no hinged panels swinging into their path.

Our Classic and Connect automatic dog doors use a rigid panel that rises vertically. Our Roll Up smart pet doors use a segmented rigid panel that rolls into a compact housing above the opening.

Across the Power Pet family, panel movement, closing safeguards, locking mechanisms, and weather seals serve a shared purpose: comfortable pet access with meaningful control over your home.

BUILT FOR THE CONNECTED HOME

Your pet’s smart home starts at the door.

Power Pet Connect and Roll Up bring smart pet door control to your phone—and voice control to your home.

Smart-home integration with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Apple Home lets you control your Power Pet door through the voice assistant you already use, including Siri with Apple Home.
