While pet doors provide convenience for your animals, they can also compromise the security of your home. Intruders might exploit the door to gain unauthorized access, especially if it is not well-secured. Therefore, it’s critical to consider the location of the pet door and whether it can be adequately secured when not in use. To mitigate risks, choose a pet door with a locking mechanism or consider electronic pet doors that only open for your pet's microchip. Additionally, ensure your home has other security measures in place, such as cameras and alarms, to compensate for any vulnerabilities introduced by the pet door.
