Pet Door Installation in Takoma Park, MD

Dog doors and cat doors installed in interior doors, exterior doors, and walls. Done right. Serving Takoma Park and all of Montgomery County.

Call (301) 395-3831

A pet door installed in the wrong location or without proper sealing lets drafts and moisture into your Takoma Park home. We handle the full installation: cutting the correct opening, fitting the unit flush with the door or wall surface, and sealing the frame properly so the installation is clean and weather-tight on exterior applications.

Takoma Park was laid out in the 1880s as a Victorian commuter suburb, and much of its housing still dates to that era: Queen Annes, bungalows, and Colonial Revivals on narrow, deep lots. Plaster walls, settled frames, and original trim are normal here, and they deserve repairs made in kind.

Property Renovators Home Services is licensed and insured in Maryland, MHIC #112963.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, but steel door installation requires a metal-cutting approach. Our team handles this for standard steel residential doors in Takoma Park homes. Very heavy gauge commercial steel is a different situation.

The pet door opening should be four inches taller than the pet's shoulder height. Our team confirms the measurement before cutting. The flap width should be wide enough for the pet's widest point.

Yes. Wall installations require cutting through drywall and possibly framing modification, plus finishing on both sides. It is a larger job than a door installation but done regularly in Takoma Park homes.

A properly installed exterior pet door with a magnetic or weighted double flap seals well in normal conditions. Our team adjusts the flap tension and checks the perimeter seal before finishing.

What We See in Takoma Park Homes

Takoma Park was laid out in the 1880s as a Victorian commuter suburb, and much of its stock still dates to that era: Queen Annes, bungalows, and Colonial Revivals on narrow, deep lots along hilly gridded streets, inside and around a National Register historic district.

Exterior work in the historic district can be subject to Historic Preservation Commission review under Chapter 24A, so it is worth confirming what applies before anything visible changes.
