I want to use this through an inside hallway wall to the garage where the cat's litter box is located. Dry wall on both sides. Will this work?

Physically this should work, however, the wall between the garage and the rest of a house is likely fire-rated, and installing this between the house and garage will also likely negate that fire-rate-ability. -greg frohring

Yes. I put mine through sheetrock on one side and Hardy board on the other. The way it telescopes with one side inside the other makes it perfect for this. You don't even have to use both doors at first while training.

Yes as long as it is a 2x4 wall, I have it on a drywall and stucco wall, but the building codes will not allow it.

Watch out! Building/fire codes normally require a fire rated wall between the garage and the living space. I would check with some one who knows your local building codes to find out if the break in the wall compromises the fire rating.You cannot sell a house that does not comply with applicable building and fire codes.

Yeah it should I went through stucko on my outside wall and a normal inside wall and worked just great! A tip put carpet between the doors my dogs seemed to adapt to the door better when I did that.

It should work.....my nephew-in-law installed mine through kitchen (dry wall) to outside (vinyl siding).

Not sure on that but face the device outward from your house and all I can say is test it out? Have your cat near the device in your home that's facing the other way and c if it scrams?

My experience is that the sensor must be very close to the transmitted signal. My opinion is it would not work for cable behind wallboard, etc. Could be a help in sorting out cables you can touch.

Yes it can. I installed mine through the wall. We really like our unit. Enjoy.

I'm not sure . . . I have it in a one room shed so it doesn't need to, and since it's at frequency that I can't hear, I can't say if it does go through those walls . . . haven't seen any rodent problems though, so I guess it does work

my husband pulled it through a hole in the floor, and then through the acoustic tile ceiling to get it into the basement. He says that the plug is big and would require a big hole in a wall and the ability to use fishing, but he thinks that it could be done. he already has a lot of CAT cables in the walls, but has acoustic tile on the basement ceiling.

I showed this to my husband...a wall plug is 110, and this can be plugged into any wall plug. I am using mine next to the litter box, you dont even know its operation, and it definately helping with stinky kitty, lol.

I'd assume it would, the part the cat crawls through is long, I'm still trying to get my cats to use it, they aren't eager to crawl into a tunnel that tight.

Does work through wall to my garage but not through metal! In plain sight no obstructions it works from over 100 feet!

it may work intermittently. I dont think it would be reliable. The walls will definitely cause problems at that distance.

I haven't had any problems in this area, but my litterbox has high walls & back. I have another different box downstairs that I lined with clear contact paper which works great for any accidents.

Yes there is, just type in 'cat mate tunnel' here on amazon and it will come up. I installed mine through a wall, I just made a tunnel from some wood I bought at home depot already painted and the exact width of the wall. Worked out great. It was my first cat/dog door install so it took me a good 3-4 hours, but it turned out great! Good luck!

While this product is designed for a door, I don't see why it couldn't be installed on an interior wall. A lot depends on how thick the wall is that you're talking about. There is some expansion capability with the cat door but I don't think it's more than a few inches. It would probably be a good idea to frame it if it's going to get a lot of use, but I think a lot depends on the type of wall that were talking about. You would probably want to frame drywall for example. And for the price you just can't go wrong. Good luck.

No, it should work fine in a hallway. We have one in our mudroom. I'll see if I can upload a pic.

we put it in a existing wall in a entry and put the door on the inside wall. Screwed it to the wall. the other part went against the outside wall.. Just make sure it is level and square. We used 1x4 to line between the two walls.. (make a box to fit the hole. they have a sorta 4" ledge inside the wall to step on befgore they get out. But with the door on the inside wall helps keep rain from coming down on the door. Been good and we've got a "fat-fat cat" using it along with smaller cats. great door. Let me know if I can help u or if something is not clear.. but was really asy. we put it in a existing wall in a entry and put the door on the inside wall.

This is what I did. I put a kitty door in hall closet. I then used a quiet power lighted exhaust fan (kind in bathroom), ran it to the attic and then to an outside weep (using a dryer like hose). Problem solved. No dust, no smell.Otherwise this works with cats, just don't use the ioniser. ONly hepa filter

I suppose it would work, but it's pretty narrow. Unless you're only protecting a narrow part of your wall, this might be a little awkward to stick all over. Maybe a sheet of clear plastic from the hardware store would work better. Or a door stop.
