Pet Doors to Suit Every Pet and Home

At Unley Glass we understand that not all pets are the same size or with the same temperament and we can assist you with the best advice possible for your beloved pet and their very own pet door.

We supply pet doors in Adelaide in a range of sizes. When choosing the right size, the next step is to choose a suitable location that both works for you and your pet, most commonly being a laundry window or door, possibly the main living area or bedroom. Wherever the location Unley Glass can make it happen.

Installing Quality Pet Doors

At Unley Glass we only recommend and use A grade toughened safety glass to use in conjunction with your pet door. Most household windows and doors will in fact have some form of safety glass already existing which cannot be cut down or re manufactured to adapt with pet doors. Some older style low level windows may have standard float glass which may be cut down to suit however Unley Glass strongly recommends against this method as it will weaken your existing glass and present a possible risk to your pet. Unley Glass only recommends removal of your existing window or door panel to be reglazed in A grade toughened safety glass with a cutout to suit your new pet door. Toughened safety is 6 times stronger than ordinary glass and complies with the Australian AS1288/2006 standards. The pet door will then simply be affixed to your new glass panel. The entire procedure can be achieved in under an hour subject to a site inspection.

Types of Pet Doors

Unley Glass recommends and stocks both Transcat and Petway doors in a variety of sizes and you will certainly find one that suits your pet.

High-Grade Commercial Polycarbonate Pet Doors

At Unley Glass we understand safety and security are extremely important in the home and the pet doors we stock are made from high grade commercial polycarbonate which are strong and durable, made to last. They even have basic locking mechanisms to suit one directional use or to lock off completely if you choose to go away. These pet doors are designed to blend in with the glass and not to become an eyesore. We can also install other brands of pet doors that a customer may choose to supply.

Do you install pet doors in security screens, timber doors, or walls, or only glass?

Glass is our specialty. At Unley Glass, we install pet doors for cats and dogs exclusively within glass panels — windows and glass doors — using A-grade toughened safety glass that meets Australian safety standards. It's what we know best, and it's where we can genuinely guarantee the quality of our work.

For pet door installations in timber doors, security screens, or walls, we'd recommend reaching out to a provider who specialises in those mediums. We're delighted to point you in the right direction if you're unsure where to start.

Do you offer a warranty on pet door installation and the glass panel?

We provide a workmanship guarantee covering the quality of our installation and repairs. There is a manufacturer's warranty on the products we install, if a defect is detected on installation.

What happens if my pet is too nervous or won't use the new pet door?

It's completely normal for pets to need time adapting to changes in their environment, and most will come around within 1–2 weeks with a little patience. The good news is that there are some simple, gentle techniques that make the process much smoother.

To help your pet settle in, we recommend:

Choose the right location – a quiet, familiar area makes a significant difference, and our team advises on this during the site visit
Tape the flap open initially so your pet can see through to the other side without feeling startled
Use treats to encourage them at their own pace
Never force them – let curiosity do the work

The adjustment process for installing pet doors for cats and pet doors for dogs is similar — gentle encouragement, consistency, and time are all it takes. Unley Glass takes this process seriously, which is why our site visit includes practical advice on placement to set your pet up for success from day one.
