Abstract
A pet door includes a motor for locking and unlocking a pet flap of a pet door. The pet flap is rotatably attached to an upper portion of the pet door. The flap has at least one peripheral edge and a movable seal coupled to the flap for reciprocal movement between a retracted position and an extended position. The seal has a second magnetic portion that is magnetically attracted to the first magnetic portion of the frame. The seal is biased to the retracted position when the door is open and the seal being magnetically biased to the extended position by the magnetic force between the first and second magnetic portions when the door is closed.
