• When children are present in the home, it is important to consider the pet door
during child proofing activities, the pet door may be misused by a child resulting
in the child accessing potential hazards that may be on the other side of the
pet door. Purchasers/Homeowners with swimming pools should ensure that
the pet door is monitored at all times and that the swimming pool has adequate
barriers to entry. If a new hazard is created inside or outside of your home,
which may be accessed through the pet door, Radio Systems Corporation
recommends that you properly guard access to the hazard or remove the pet
door. The closing panel or lock, if applicable, is provided for aesthetic and
energy efficiency purposes and is not intended as a security device. Radio

It is important for the owner and contractor to consider any risks that may be
present inside or outside of the pet door, and any risks that may be created by
subsequent changes to your property and how they may relate to the existence
