Controlled Transitions Without the Risk

Managing the movement of high-energy or aggressive animals between indoor and outdoor runs shouldn’t be a safety hazard. Our guillotine doors provide a reliable, hands-free solution that allows your team to control animal access from the safety of the kennel aisle. By eliminating the need for staff to enter the run for every transfer, you reduce animal stress, prevent “door rushing,” and significantly lower liability for your business.

Maximum Staff Safety

Employees can move dogs between runs without having to enter the enclosure or get within biting distance of an aggressive pet.

Drastic Increase in Workflow Speed

Aisle-side controls allow a single staff member to cycle an entire row of dogs from indoor to outdoor runs quickly.

Long-Term Capital Savings

Our doors are built for “industrial cycles,” meaning they don’t have the frequent cable snaps or warped tracks common in retail-grade doors.

Integrated Rotary Spin Feeder

Maximize staff safety and efficiency by feeding guests without ever entering the run. Our heavy-duty, 360-degree rotating feeder allows you to replenish food and water bowls directly from the aisle, keeping the containment barrier secure and cutting feeding times in half.

Industrial Durability for Smooth Daily Operation

Flimsy plastic doors and thin metal kits eventually warp, jam, or snap their cables. Presidio’s kennel doors are fabricated from heavy-gauge, non-porous HDPE and stainless steel components to ensure a “silent glide” operation that won’t startle sensitive pets. Every system is custom-manufactured to match your specific wall thickness and run dimensions, ensuring a flush, draft-resistant fit that holds up to decades of daily use.

Engineered for Safety. Built for Silence.

Counter-Weighted Pulley System

A precision-balanced cable and weight system that reduces the physical force needed to lift the door. Allows staff to open or close the door with one hand from the aisle, ensuring a smooth, effortless motion that doesn’t stick or jam.

Heavy-Duty HDPE & Aluminum Construction

The door panels are made from High-Density Polyethylene and framed in corrosion-resistant aluminum. These materials are chew-proof, rust-proof, and non-porous, making them easy to sanitize and immune to the moisture found in indoor/outdoor runs.

Custom Extrusions

Side-tracks and headers designed to provide a close-tolerance fit against the kennel wall. our heavy duty extrusions provide a long life time of operability, protecting your utility budget and keeping the facility comfortable.

Your Questions, Answered!

K
L
Can your guillotine doors be operated from the aisle side?
Yes. Every Presidio guillotine door system is designed for aisle-side operation. Using a pulley and cable system, your staff can safely open or close the exterior run access without ever stepping inside the kennel.
K
L
Are these doors weather-resistant for outdoor use?
Yes, absolutely, these guillotine doors are weather-resistant and great for outdoor use. We use 100% rust-proof materials like HDPE and aluminum. When closed, the door creates a secure barrier that blocks wind and rain, helping to maintain the temperature of your indoor climate-controlled area.
K
L
Can you manufacture doors for existing wall openings?
Yes. As a custom kennel manufacturer, we build to your "rough opening" measurements. Whether your walls are thin metal or thick masonry, we provide the custom tracks and hardware to ensure a perfect, flush fit.
K
L
Do the doors make a loud noise when closing?
No. We utilize high-quality track systems and non-metal panels to ensure a "silent glide." This is essential for maintaining a low-stress environment, as loud metal-on-metal clanging can trigger anxiety and barking in sensitive dogs.
