No fiddling about with small, fragile parts: only high-quality materials that are a pleasure to work with. A fun project for a handy DIYer.

Use wood for a dog door?

Indeed, because wood gives you a lot of pleasure: it insulates, looks good, feels nice, etc.

And our wood is low-maintenance because it has been treated with oil, so that dirt cannot enter it. So if you polish the pet door a few times a year with a cloth with some oil, it will stay in excellent condition for years. Regular care helps maintain the appearance of the wooden dog door while preserving its insulating qualities.

By the way, you can also order our pet doors ‘natural’ as well for you to finish them the way you want: do you like your dog door black, blue-grey, etc.? It’s possible! This allows the dog flap to blend naturally with the style and colour of your door or interior.
