Doggy Door with Wall Mount

FAQ

Why Choose a Through Wall Doggie Door?

Installing a dog door in a wall allows your furry friend to have easy access to the great outdoors, without the need for you to open the door every time they want to go outside. This means that you can enjoy a more flexible schedule, knowing that your pet can take care of their business on their own.

Additionally, a dog door in a wall provides added security to your home, as it eliminates the need for leaving a window or door open for your pet. This can deter burglars from attempting to break into your home, as they will not be able to access the house through the pet door. Furthermore, a wall-mounted dog door can be ideal for those who have limited space or do not want to modify their sliding glass doors or windows.
With a wall-mounted pet door, you can give your furry friend the freedom and independence they deserve, while also keeping your home safe and secure.

Additional Benefits Include:

• An escape in case of fire or other hazards
• Pets can come in when the weather turns bad
• The dog will be able to protect the property, inside and out

Installing a pet door for walls also means that your dog will get more exercise, and they won’t be bored, so they’ll be less likely to engage in problematic behavior such as chewing. In short, dog doors for walls give your dog more freedom.

What Does It Mean to “Frame out” a Wall?

Framing out a wall for a wall mount pet door means creating a tunnel that provides stable footing for the pet. This tunnel, or frame, also helps prevent water penetration to the interior wall. You must carefully caulk the tunnel to ensure that it’s water-tight. And you also need to seal and waterproof any wood that you use in the construction.

A self-framing through wall dog door is the easiest to install. Ours comes with its own tunnel, an aluminum frame, that you can cut to accommodate the depth of the wall.

Is There a Difference Between a Wall Mount Dog Door and a Door Mount?

Yes. Door mount doggie doors may be what most people think of as pet doors; however, door mounts don’t include the wall tunnel and framing that you get with a wall mount dog door. Similarly, a door mount is easier to install, but they don’t offer the flexibility of dog doors for walls. You can only use door mounts on exterior doors, and they tend to be a bit more expensive than a wall mount pet door.

What Size Should I Get for an Extra-Large Wall Doggie Door?

Ensure that you order the right size by measuring for your wall mount pet door. Determine the width of the flap by finding out how much room your dog needs to be able to pass through comfortably. Next, measure the distance from the floor to the top of the tallest pet’s shoulder to get the correct height.

Do You Offer Professional Installation for Wall Mounted Dog Doors?

No. We recommend a licensed contractor for this type of installation. Don’t risk cutting into power lines or plumbing in your walls that could cause injury and property damage.

How Do I Pick a Location to Install a Through Wall Doggie Door?

First, you must determine what’s inside the wall. Check for electric and plumbing hazards. Next, make sure the tunnel will fit between any studs. Now, look at both the inside and outside. Is there enough room to ensure a safe exit?
