Dogs benefit from being able to go outside regularly; it reduces the chances of accidents inside if they can go out freely to use the toilet. Obviously, this isn’t suitable for all dogs—especially those prone to escaping from your garden or those who love being noisy by barking at the neighbours.
However, if you have a secure garden or area that you would like your dog to be able to use, you can consider a Dog Door to make your life that little bit easier.
No longer will you have to get up to let the dog out and then back in again less than 5 minutes later when they realise that it’s raining! Dogs thrive in fresh air, relish being able to sunbathe and enjoy soaking in the atmosphere in their own outdoor space.
Dog Flaps and Doors are available in sizes that suit most breeds and can be installed into most places—please ask us what Dog Doors are best suited for the type of installation that you need, and we will advise you further, so that you can choose the best Dog Door to suit your requirements, wherever you are in the UK!

Why aren’t more Dog Doors microchip style?
The majority of Dog Doors are push style—this is because dogs love to run towards Dog Doors, rather than saunter up to it. Microchip flaps don’t have enough chance to read the dog’s microchip at speed. Therefore most of the manufacturers of Dog Doors have chosen to only make doors that are durable enough to withstand zoomies through them.
This is also why lots of Dog Doors are not suited to glass installations; however, here at Pet Flaps UK, we offer dog doors from specialist manufacturers specifically designed for glass installation.
We have more options available for large dog installations into walls and solid doors (uPVC, Wooden, Composite) than there are for glass. This is because we can provide greater stability to the area with the support from the walls/door than glass can.
Please ask us what is available for your breed of dog and we will assist you in finding a suitable Dog Door. Whether you need a dog flap for a glass, uPVC, or solid wood door, we’ve got you covered. Have other questions? Feel free to contact the Pet Flaps UK team – our expert installers are ready to assist you in finding the ideal dog door for your needs.
What do I need to Consider when getting a Pet Door Installation?
Is it in a place that your pet knows well and logical for use? The best locations are directly into the kitchen or the area where you usually feed them or the door that you usually open for them to go outside to go to the toilet. Don’t suddenly expect them to use a Pet Flap by climbing up to a window on the first floor or using a room that they are not familiar with—they are creatures of habit!
2. Is the area free from obstructions that may affect the installation process?
Obstructions such as sockets, cables or pipework can mean that you may need to consider an alternative location, or have them relocated before installation can occur.
3. Is it going to be at a comfortable height for the pet to use?
Bear in mind that sometimes floor height inside is higher than outside. Our installers can help by making a step to the area if needed, please ask us to include this in your quote. If you are having the installation into a door, would the height of the frame bring the Pet Flap installation up too high? We can advise further if this is the situation.
4. Is the area large enough to accommodate the installation?
Specifications for each Pet Flap are available on the manufacturers websites to help you.
How we work
At Pet Flaps UK, our installation experts can complete installation of dog doors and cat flaps in almost any part of your home, even in aluminium or metal. Many other companies refuse to install these doors because of the difficulty and precision it takes, but our experts are specifically trained to make this process simple and safe.

If a site survey is deemed necessary from our initial evaluation (i.e, the installation requires something to be manufactured) as part of our order process following a deposit payment (or a finance arrangement is in place) we will arrange for a survey to be completed. One of our installers will visit your home and take the final measurements so the unit will be manufactured to be the perfect fit. We may also take photos for reference.
