Whether for security reasons or due to the way that your home and yard are designed, a doggie door for wall use may be the perfect solution.
In this article, we explain the differences between “door” and “wall” pet doors, how in-wall dog doors work, and why you might want one. We also answer your wall model dog door questions, such as how to install a dog door in the wall.

That depends on how handy you are and if you have the proper tools. Dog door in-wall installation can often be done by the homeowner.
