Dealer Specials Are a Hit

We just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to all our dealers who have purchased one of more of our dealer specials. These items are clearance merchandise, returned custom sizes, scratch and dent products or one of a kind items that we have listed on the dealer dashboard.

When we first started offering these items in May 2016 we had well over 100 items available and we continually add more to the list as items are returned by customers or for various other reasons. Most of the items available are in perfect or near perfect condition with very minor blemishes but because they don’t live up to the high quality standards of Hale Pet Door, we will not sell them again at full price. This makes a great opportunity for you, our dealers, to pass along some savings to your customers and maybe satisfy a customer who cannot afford a full price pet door.

We have been so pleased with the response to this program. To date, we have offered 183 items from all our product lines: wall, door, screen and in glass pet doors; window and panel models; frame only models; ramps; barriers; and even kennel doors. The response has been amazing and currently we have less than 60 items available. However, more are being added constantly. Remember though that these items are sold as is and are first come, first served. So if you are interested in something, call to order right away as it may not be available if you wait. And of course, you will still get your dealer discount on top of the discounted price listed on the website.

To access the Dealer Specials page, log in to our website at halepetdoor.com. Click on the link that says “Dashboard” and then pick either the tab or the window that says “Dealer Info”. The dealer specials are at the bottom of the page.

Meet Hale Pet Door’s New Dealer Coordinator: Scott Strong

When we realized that having our Dealer Coordinator in our Corporate Office in Southern Colorado would streamline the system, we discovered the perfect candidate for the job was working on our manufacturing line. Liam Aguilar had been doing a great job of recruiting dealers remotely from his location in Florida . Liam is still an integral part of our dealer recruitment as he works behind the scenes creating CraigsList recruitment campaigns, managing testing and preparing contracts.

Scott Strong had been working in Hale Pet Door Manufacturing since August 2016 when Bill Hale noticed his leadership capabilities and decided to give him the opportunity to work with new and existing dealers. In January he started contacting dealer prospects and proved to be a ‘natural’ when it came to explaining the Hale Pet Door Dealer Program to prospective dealers.

Just last week, Scott attended the Handyman Matters Annual Convention in Tampa, Florida where he met many of our dealers from around the country and was able to introduce Hale Pet Door to new franchisees.

Scott has extensive construction experience and has been a Certified Fenestration Installer (windows and doors), so he can help you with your Hale Pet Door installation questions and concerns. Scott can be contacted by email at ScottS@HalePetDoor.com and phone at Hale Pet Door 800-646-4773 or cell phone 719-315-1615.

New Hale Screen Pet Door Model Fits ALL Screen Doors

Hale Screen Pet Door
Same High Quality Screen Pet Door — Universal Fit

Hale Universal Screen Pet Door Makes Ordering Easy

When the Hale Screen Pet Door was first designed, most screen door frames were 1/2 inch thick.

As screen door manufacturers changed their designs, we began to modify the screen pet doors by cutting off one leg of the frame to accommodate thicker screen door frames. This modification required more information about where the pet door was to be installed and which side the screen and spline were located.

The Hale Universal Screen Pet Door eliminates the need for this extra information.

Go to Hale Screen Pet Doors Customize page to see the changes in the choices.

The Hale Universal Screen Pet Door uses spline frame on all 4 sides of the pet door – unlike the original screen pet door which used spline frame on the top and screen side and main frame on the bottom and door frame sides. The main frame has a groove which fits over the screen door frame if it’s ½ inch or less thick.

If you had a screen door frame that was over ½ inch thick, we would modify the main frame by cutting off one side or ‘leg’ of the main frame. To cut off the correct side, we had to know where the pet door was to be installed – Inside Looking Out on the Left or Right – and where the screen and spline were on the screen door – inside or outside. This has caused much confusion in the ordering process.

The Hale Universal Screen Pet Door eliminates all these details because it can be installed without modification in all screen doors. For the bottom and screen door side of the pet door, there are clips that are screwed into the pet door, and the screen and spline hold the pet door to the frame. Because our spline frame is double-sided, the screen and spline can be attached from either side – making the installation easier.

Installing Hale Universal Screen Pet Door
Installing the new Hale Universal Screen Pet Door is similar to installing the Original Screen Pet Door

You can still order the standard Hale Screen Pet Door with main frame on the bottom and one side if your screen door is less than ½ inch thick here

Just be sure to click on the Customize button if your screen door frame is over ½ inch thick to get the new Hale Universal Screen Pet Door.

The Hale Universal Screen Pet Door is available in our 4 colors: White, Arizona Beige, Dark Bronze and Brushed Aluminum.

Dark Bronze Screen Pet Doors on Backorder

Dk Bronze ScreenScreen Pet Doors sure are popular this time of year!

In fact, the Dark Bronze has been flying out the door, and we ran short of the metal to make more.

Our other colors: White, Brushed Aluminum and Arizona Beige are available if you need one right away and one of those colors will work for your customer. Check them out at Hale Pet Door Screen Pet Doors

We’re sorry if this causes you or your customers any inconvenience.

Hale Pet Door Changes Some Options

Clear flaps shown in the door dog door

Because Hale Pet Door strives to manufacture products that exceed your and your customer’s expectations, we’ve made some changes to our options.

Flaps are only available in clear heavy vinyl with stainless steel strikes attached. We had supplied opaque black and white flaps on a limited basis for a few years, but they just didn’t live up to our expectations, so we discontinued them.

The carpet for the Wall Pet Door tunnels is currently only available in our Standard higher pile medium brown and the low pile dark grey.

You can place your order and receive your dealer discount directly through our website at Hale Pet Door Products or through our streamlined order process Hale Pet Door Home

Or give us a call at 800-646-4773 and talk to a friendly helpful customer service representative.
