Doggie door? - What's the purpose of the "doggie door"? Does it lead some where »
· · Comment · 4 months ago
FrontPorch Hi Matt,

The dog door in the photo leads to a small tunnel/hallway built under the stairs to the outside. Once through the tunnel, there is a small landing and ramp for the dog to be able to get to ground level outside of the home.

The dog door was strategically positioned underneath the stairs in order to not take up any additional room inside of the house and the owner's of this home were concerned with security so we added a real lockable door on the inside with matching hardware. The hallway was large enough to also serve as an inside dog house with space for the dog to lay in comfort away from the elements. Lucky dog!

Jefferson Park Collection I love it! It's too late for us for this idea. Our crazy dog can unlock deadbolts and pull doors open. Even the ones with door closers! The only thing that I could do was install hooks up high.

Now this might be the most innovative dog door I've ever seen. I'm guessing that this leads the dog in and out of the house—so smart! Plus, the fact that it looks like a miniature version of the doors in the home is adorable.
Tucked away under the stairs, this Georgia pup's fort makes use of what would be unused space.
