You can install a doggy door in a steel clad exterior door, it just
takes a bit of thought in how to cut the steel cladding.
I did one with a sawz-all with metal cutting blade.
An 18 x 24 pet door is pretty big and may cause you problems with heat
loss in the winter unless it opens onto a porch or entry room.
