Product Overview

If you are looking for a simple and effective way to give your pets freedom to come and go as they please while keeping out unwelcome animals, the PetSafe Electronic SmartKey for SmartDoor is the perfect solution. This device uses Radio Frequency Identification RFID technology to send a signal to the SmartDoor when your pet is in range, unlocking the flap to let them in or out. The SmartKey has no wires or additional installation required and it fits most collar ID tags.

The PetSafe Electronic SmartKey is designed for both indoor and outdoor access, making it ideal for cats, dogs, and other small animals that need a secure entry point. It works with all sizes of the PetSafe Electronic SmartDoor, but it is not compatible with the SmartDoor Plus. The battery included with the SmartKey lasts up to 3 6 months depending on use, so you won t have to worry about changing batteries often. It also has an LED battery indicator light that will let you know when it s time to replace it.

The package includes one SmartKey and one RFA 67 battery. Additionally, PetSafe offers excellent customer care from their U.S. based experts who are available by phone, email or chat if you have any questions or need help setting up your system. With over 20 years of experience in pet behavior, containment and lifestyle innovations, PetSafe stands behind their quality products with a satisfaction guarantee.

The PetSafe Electronic SmartKey for SmartDoor is an easy to use product that provides secure access for your pets while keeping out unwelcome animals. It s perfect for households with multiple pets since you can use it as a replacement or add more pets to your existing system. It offers excellent value for money since its reliable RFID technology doesn t require additional installation and its LED indicator light lets you know when the battery needs replacing. All in all, this is a great product that I highly recommend!
