This was sort of my plan when I put the child gatte on the entrance to
the den. Roughly a dutch door the cat could get over, but the dogs
couldn't. I thought I put it very firmly in place, and was surprised the
dogs barged through it when I was not around. It seemed to work well on
the upstairs bathroom, but the fact that the door was on the side of a
corridor may not have allowed the dogs to build up their momentum the
way they did for the den.

Bite the bullet and install a hardware installed gate instead of a
pressure gate. They need to choose to meet at the gate under their own
terms.
