Wall Mount Pet Doors

Pet Doors for Walls

A wall mount pet door goes through an exterior wall instead of a door. Its standard liner suits walls 2 to 10 inches deep, and a custom 16-inch liner covers thicker walls. Pick it for glass back doors you want kept whole, garage or laundry exits, or an opening facing a fenced yard. Choose a door below or text us photos for a quote.

Pet Doors for Walls

Wall Mount Pet Doors Put the Entrance Where You Want It

Every door above can be fitted through an exterior wall rather than a door or a pane of glass. A liner bridges the full depth of the wall and a frame caps each face. Your doors are never touched, though the opening in the wall is permanent.

Choose this route when the back door is glass you would rather keep whole, when the sensible exit is a garage or laundry wall, or when the opening should face a fenced yard. The wall mount how-to guide walks through the cut layer by layer.

Your doors stay as built

No slab is cut and no slider loses width to an insert.

Depths of 2 to 10 inches as standard

The trimmable liner is cut to the measured depth on site; a 16-inch liner is ordered ahead for thicker builds.

Sizes XS through XXL

Flap sizes reach Great Danes, Mastiffs, Newfoundlands and Saint Bernards, and two custom models go beyond the chart.

Two flaps and a buffer

The insulated models pair dual flaps with a magnetic closure, and the liner itself separates indoors from out.

How the Cut Changes With the Wall

Standard · Framed wall with siding

Wood Frame Behind Vinyl, Fiber Cement or Lap Siding

The everyday case, garage walls included. Drywall, insulation and sheathing come out of a bay between studs, the cladding is cut to match from outside, and the liner is trimmed to depth. Composite and cement board take the same approach.

Specialist finish · Stucco over frame

Stucco Exteriors

Stucco cracks if it is rushed, so the exterior edge is scored and opened with care, then dressed back to sit as close to the surrounding texture as the material allows.

Masonry tools · Brick veneer, full brick, block

Brick and Block

Brick veneer over framing has its face cut and framed; solid brick or block means masonry blades and steel framing around the liner. Both fall under the higher of the two posted wall prices.

Photos first · Basement, steel studs, heavy masonry

The Cases We Confirm Before Quoting

Basement walls, steel-stud framing, very thick masonry and reinforced concrete get a look at your photos before anyone commits to a method or a price.

Before You Pick the Spot

Depth

Measure from interior paint to exterior face if you can; it tells us whether a standard liner will do.

What runs inside the bay

Wiring, pipes, ducts and gas lines can run through exterior walls, so the spot is scanned for them before anything is cut.

The outside landing

Keep the exit clear of meters, condensers and property lines; a big drop from floor to grade calls for a landing or ramp.

Structure and paperwork

Load-bearing headers and engineered beams are never cut, and some municipalities want a permit for an exterior penetration.

Show Us the Wall From Both Sides

One picture of the room side, one of the outside at your chosen spot, plus your dog's shoulder height and chest width, texted to 719-301-7678. We will name the wall type, confirm the liner length and quote it, usually the same day. Prefer the phone? Call 855-DOG-DOOR, or book a video consultation.

Between Ordering and the First Trip Through

1

Quote and order

Photos, measurements and wall material in; product, liner length and price back, usually within the day.

2

The installer calls

A local installer calls within 24 to 48 hours of the order to set a date, and orders the 16-inch liner now if the wall is deeper than 10 inches.

3

Cutting day

Depth verified, interior opened, bay cleared, exterior cut to match, liner anchored, frames fixed and both faces sealed. Framed walls usually take two to three hours; brick, block and stucco may take longer.

4

Handover

You see the flap swing, learn how the security panel locks, and get the care notes before the installer leaves.

Posted Prices for a Wall Installation

A wall installation is $1,197 through vinyl siding, wood shake or cement board and $1,397 through brick, stucco or concrete, with the pet door priced separately. Some openings need extras, each raised with you before work begins: a footer cut with matching framing, $250; painting the new framing, $150 with your paint or $250 with ours; moving an outlet in the opening, $300; and a 16-inch liner, which adds 15% to the pet door's price. These are standard national prices, and the price that counts is the one on your written quote.

The installation cost page has the full table. Where a solid door exists, a door mount pet door costs several hundred dollars less to fit.

Who Does the Cutting

Opening a wall is not handyman work, so each order goes to a local installer from a nationwide network, every one licensed, bonded and insured. The wall dog door installation page lays out the service in full; you can also book the installation with the door.

Behind that network sit more than 20 years in pet doors and over 1,100 customer reviews. If the workmanship ever falls short, the craftsmanship guarantee brings the team back. Pet doors ship free, and no-kill shelters receive a share of every sale.

Wall Pet Door Questions, Answered Before You Order

Does the wall have to be wood framed?

No. Framed walls with siding or stucco, brick veneer, full brick and concrete block are all routine. Steel studs, very thick masonry and reinforced concrete are assessed from your photos first.

My wall measures more than 10 inches. What then?

A 16-inch custom liner replaces the trimmable standard one. The installer orders it before the visit; the cost page notes it adds 15% to the price of the pet door.

How much room is needed between the studs?

Standard 16-inch on-center framing leaves roughly 14 1/2 inches clear, which most flap sizes fit. Larger openings may mean cutting a stud and adding a header and sill.

What keeps weather out of the wall cavity?

The liner closes the cavity off end to end, both frames are sealed to their faces and the outside edge is caulked; flashing matters more here than on a door.

Can I shut it completely at night or while we travel?

Yes. Every model from the main wall range has a rigid security panel that locks into the room-side frame. The electronic model opens only for your own pet, which controls pet access rather than keeping intruders out.

Which size should I order for my dog?

Height first: floor to shoulder, plus 1 or 2 inches. Width: chest or hips, whichever is wider, plus 2 inches or more. Between two sizes, go up; for a giant breed, call before ordering.

Could the final bill differ from the quote?

It can if your opening needs one of the listed extras, such as a footer cut, painting the new framing or moving an outlet. Those sit on top of the wall price and are raised with you before work starts, not added afterwards.

Is this realistic as a weekend DIY project?

For most households, no. Our how-to guide rates it advanced, allows two to eight hours and assumes one or two people, and a poor seal can mean drafts, water damage or a voided warranty.
