A pet door in glass, in your interior or exterior door
You do enjoy opening the door for your pet, but still, sometimes you think it would be so much more comfortable if they had a pet door they could use to come in and go out on their own.
But plastic pet doors have the bad reputation of being very uncomfortable: draught, flapping noises, not secure against burglars, not insulated, etc.
Then have a look at our alternative for cat and dog doors in our shop. You will probably discover something you will both 😊 enjoy for years.
A dog door or a cat flap in a wall
And, talking about comfort: our pet doors for walls have a double flap, one on the inside wall and one on the outside wall. In between is a massive wooden tunnel, highly insulating.
In any case, our pet doors are supplied with a night door that is nearly 2 cm thick. Then everything is closed tightly!
And do you also want the comfort of having the pet door installed? In many countries we are happy to fit it for you, but it has been developed so that you can easily install it yourself.

About Tomsgates
‘Let us DIY a dog door‘, we decided in the 1990s.
We needed a solid dog door for our large dogs that would keep out the cold and draught. But it also had to be suitable for our small pets. Such a door did not exist, so we decided to make it ourselves.
We did not want a door with a chip, because our pets could become frustrated when they got trapped without any apparent reason. It did get a night door that locks with a steel lock, so that dogs and cats can be kept inside in a secure manner and as protection against burglars.
In the beginning, our pets destroyed many doors. We replaced a number of flaps, but our rubber flap with strips ended up lasting for years. An unexpected advantage of rubber was that the flap closes quietly, with a sigh :-)
In 2014 we patented our design and styled it nicely in insulating wood. In the meantime, it is being sold in 32 countries and you can order it online here in all sizes. In some countries you can have your pet door installed by us, but we designed it so that you can easily fit it yourself. A DIY enthusiast or local handyman or handywoman will enjoy this project and continue our DIY tradition.
You will enjoy a quality product that is made locally in a sustainable way for years to come.

Training your dog or cat to use a pet door
Being able decide for itself to enter & leave the nest is just as natural for an animal as it is for us with our home.
And yet …. leaving the nest can be difficult because of a sense of insecurity about the outside, or: like a mother straightening a child’s jacket before it goes out, your dog or cat is used to the reassuring ritual of you opening the door and thereby signalling that it’s okay to go outside.
It’s hard to predict, but it’s possible that your pet is not immediately comfortable with the dog door or cat flap and therefore needs a little assistance.
