We just discovered the SmartSlydr automatic sliding door opener, and we can’t order one fast enough. Tired of letting the dogs in and out and in again? Want your doors to magically open for you (maybe with a sound effect?). You need to check out SmartSlydr’s game changing new door opener.
This product not only opens and closes sliding doors automatically but also serves as an invisible pet door. It comes with an inbuilt receiver and smart lock, which helps keep your door secure. The unit uses AI-based automatic calibration to fit your door without needing extra equipment. Both WiFi and Bluetooth are built in, so you do not need a separate hub to use it. SmartSlydr is designed to be easy to install and can be custom-sized to work with most sliding doors.
There are two main versions of the SmartSlydr: Standard and Regal. The Regal model has improvements over the standard one. It supports doors up to 71 inches wide and can open up to 45 inches for larger doors. The Regal version also operates more quietly, with noise levels about half as loud as the original SmartSlydr. To help with different door types, the Regal model includes a custom adapter for outside-moving panels. Each Regal unit is hand-assembled in the United States.
SmartSlydr works with popular smart home platforms such as Google Home, Alexa, and Apple Watch. This means you can control your sliding door with voice commands or from your wrist. For example, if you have an Apple Watch, you can open or close your patio door without getting up, and you will receive notifications when your dog uses the door. The system supports up to four PetPass or OneButton tags, along with DuoButtons, so both humans and pets can operate the door opener.
The PetPass feature is designed for pet owners. It lets you set custom door openings based on your pet’s size, and the settings can be updated as your pets grow. There is an Automatic Mode where the door opens when your pet approaches, and you get a notification on your phone. There is also a Send Request Mode, where the system will notify you when your pet is at the door, and you can choose to let them out. All of this can be managed through a mobile app, which allows full control of your sliding doors from anywhere.
Another feature is the DuoButton, a physical button that can be pressed by either people or pets to open the door. The DuoButton includes an option for an auto-close timer, so you can set the door to close automatically after a short period. This can help keep your home secure and comfortable.
Installation of the SmartSlydr Regal is intended to be straightforward. The product comes with instructions, and the company says it can be set up in just a few minutes. With these features, SmartSlydr is suited for homeowners who want to add smart control to their sliding doors and pet owners who want a more flexible pet door that does not require cutting or replacing parts of their existing door.
