The bolts (28) are extendable into the door flap (18) and retractable into the frame (2) to lock and unlock the pet door, respectively. A bolt mechanism controller (50) is arranged to unlock the pet door on detection of a pet carrying the correct key transmitter (66) and to relock the pet door a user adjustable predetermined time after unlocking the pet door. This provides a pet door which can be used to automatically permit entry to a selected pet while using a robust bolt (28) of especial application to larger pet doors such as dog doors.
