Power Pet PX1-WIFI Medium Door Mount

In this power pet px1-wifi medium door mount review, the High Tech Pet Power Pet PX1-WIFI is the best medium-size WiFi electronic dog door in our 2026 guide, and it ranks #5 of 9 overall. The door costs $524.98, holds 4.3 stars from 31 Amazon ratings, and pairs with genuine High Tech Pet MS-5 ultrasonic collars. It is built for cats, beagles, cocker spaniels and other pets under roughly 30 pounds that need a door mount opening with app control. In practice, you get the same phone alerts and access scheduling as the larger High Tech Pet models, but in a smaller medium panel. Buyers who want a collar activated door with remote control get the most from it.

Day to day, the Power Pet PX1-WIFI runs on four modes you pick on the control panel: In Only, Out Only, In & Out and Locked. Directional sensing opens the panel only when your pet walks straight toward it, so a dog resting nearby will not trigger false openings. Meanwhile, a steel dead bolt snaps shut after every pass to block strays and intruders, and the anti-pinch system reopens the door if it meets an obstruction. The unit fits doors up to 0.63 inches thick, and the panel is ABS plastic inside an aluminum frame, which resists chewing better than an all plastic build. However, the performance warranty applies only when the door runs with authentic MS-5 transmitters.

Value is the hard part of this Power Pet PX1-WIFI review: at $524.98 you pay nearly the same as High Tech Pet's large WiFi door for a smaller opening. By contrast, a simpler automatic door costs far less, though it gives you no app alerts, no directional sensing and no steel dead bolt. On top of that, only 31 Amazon ratings back this model, which means the long term durability record is thinner than the brand's larger sellers. As a result, this door suits a specific buyer: someone with a medium dog or a pair of cats, a genuine MS-5 collar, and a real need to open or lock the door from a phone. If your dog weighs more than 30 pounds, size up instead. For anyone else in that narrow lane, it earns its place.
