PetPass offers two modes for controlling the SmartSlydr door: Automatic Mode and Send Request Mode. You can only use one mode at a time, and both are customizable via the mobile app.

Automatic Mode: This mode enables automatic opening and closing based on your pet's proximity to the door. When your pet is near, the door will open automatically and you will get notification.

Send Request Mode: In this mode, when your pet approaches the door, you will receive a smartphone notification to approve or deny the door opening. This gives you more control over when the door opens, allowing you to decide whether to grant access or not.

Both modes are designed to offer flexibility, depending on your preferences for convenience or control.

SmartSlydr is designed to work with sliding doors that move smoothly, regardless of their weight. The key factor is how easily your door slides. If you can open your door with one hand, SmartSlydr should work seamlessly for you.

SmartSlydr includes a quick cleaning and lubrication kit to help ensure smooth operation. Many heavy doors simply need a bit of cleaning and lubrication for optimal performance.

For reference, SmartSlydr can handle doors with up to 18 lbs of drag force, while most well-maintained doors with clean tracks typically require only 5-10 lbs of force.

For more information, check out our YouTube video.

The standard SmartSlydr operates at approximately 55±3 dB from a 1-meter distance, while the SmartSlydr Regal features a quieter motor that runs at 48±3 dB.

The actual noise level you experience may vary based on factors such as door condition, room size, and ceiling height.

SmartSlydr includes a convenient pull cord feature that allows you to detach the device from the window panel for manual operation. This feature works similarly to a garage door opener, making it especially useful in emergency situations or when manual operation is needed.

Once the manual operation is complete, the SmartSlydr head will automatically reattach to the door.

If you prefer to prevent the automatic reattachment, you can use the pull cord fork to securely hold it in place.

Yes, the PetPass and OneButton are the same hardware, but you can configure them to function in either PetPass mode or OneButton mode—but only one mode can be active at a time.

1. PetPass mode: This mode is for pets and enables automatic opening of the SmartSlydr door when your pet approaches, making it perfect for hands-free access for your dog.
2. OneButton mode: This mode works as a remote control, similar to a keychain, and is designed for human use. It can be attached to a walker, wheelchair, or carried for easy access to open or close the door.

No special tools or professional assistance are required! Thanks to our patented custom design, installing SmartSlydr is as simple as installing blinds or shades.

1. Easy Installation – SmartSlydr attaches using two brackets, requiring only a screwdriver for setup.
2. Corner Cap Attachment – The corner cap sticks to the moving door/window panel and connects to SmartSlydr for smooth operation.
3. Handyman-Friendly – If you prefer assistance, any handyman can easily install it.

Yes, SmartSlydr is designed with safety in mind, incorporating a safety feature similar to the anti-pinch mechanism found in car power windows.

If an object is pinched during door operation: The door will retract and attempt to close again.

If the obstruction persists, the door will retract once more, remain open, and send a notification to your mobile app about the obstruction.

For a demonstration of this feature, check out the Safety Feature Video. on our website, where we use a banana as an example.

Yes, SmartSlydr can work with most types of blinds, provided there is sufficient clearance. The SmartSlydr unit itself has a width of 2 inches, but we recommend a 5 inch clearance between the door frame and the blinds for proper installation. If additional space is needed, extender brackets are available to move the blinds outward, allowing SmartSlydr to be installed properly.

SmartSlydr only ships to the USA right now, due to the logistics of international shipping. If you are outside the USA, we suggest using a shipping address of a friend or family member within the USA, and then they can send it to you.

No, SmartSlydr does not require a hub or any additional devices. As long as you have a stable 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network and a smartphone with the mobile app, SmartSlydr can easily connect to your home Wi-Fi network for seamless operation.

The power supply will always be placed on the opposite side of the moving panel. The power adapter cable is 8 feet long, and if you need additional length, you can order a DC extension cord.

Example : If the moving panel is on the left, the power supply would be positioned on the right side, and vice versa.

In normal mode, SmartSlydr moves the window/door at a speed of approximately 45 mm per second. The total time to open the window or door depends on the amount of opening you’ve selected (ranging from 1% to 100%). Therefore, the larger the opening, the longer it will take for the door/window to fully open.

With the smartphone app or voice commands, you can open the door or window to any width between 1% to 100% (in increments of 1% so you can fine-tune it to your needs). For e.g. with voice command, you can say "Set the door to 20%".

Yes! With the SmartSlydr smartphone app or voice commands, you can open the door or window to any width (maximum opening 45 inches) between 1% and 100% in 1% increments.

SmartSlydr consumes less than 1kW for the whole year, based on average daily usage. This totals less than 1 hour of air conditioner electricity consumption. Every minute past that is pure savings - if you're using SmartSlydr to let in fresh air!
