|   | Wall Mounted Doggie DoorsThe dog doors can also be installed in an outside wall on your home if you dont mind cutting a hole through the brick with a concrete saw. The dog door can still be installed but will require extra material to line the opening. Some dog door manufacturers provide extra kits for doors installed in this way. Also if you are going to the trouble of cutting a hole in your house, you might as well get an electrician to tie the doggie door into the house wiring so you are not dependent on replacing batteries.
Dog doors can also be adapted to window installation. Usually this involves cutting a piece of plywood to fit the opening where the screen would normally go.
