Just keep the sides of the flap sides clear of fur. Just a wipe over each day for example in windy weather. If you have dogs that are malting, and their fur sticks to the sides of the dog flap opening, the flap won’t magnetically seal as tight. BRILLIANT though. FAR BETTER than the companies normal single flap option which we’ve had previously. We have six dogs, it gets some use.
Our doggie door was installed in a door that has a covered porch. It is very energy efficient. We live in south Texas where the heat can be brutal but this doggie door keeps the heat or cold out. Best one we’ve had. Worth every penny.
Perfecta. La instalacin no ha sido complicada. En mi caso la he pintado de negro porque el blanco no me gustaba. Asla y cumple con su funcin. Mi perro se ha adaptado muy bien desde el primer momento. Recomiendo este producto y si tenis alguna duda intentar responder lo ms rpido posible.
Blue Heeler figured it out quickly and uses it all the time. He’s 59 pounds and fits in a medium sized door. Had a particular spot for it and it fit perfectly. Like the fact it has two magnetic doors and a insulated piece between.
Montato in poco tempo alla posta della serra dove stanno a dormire i miei gatti. Controllate bene lo spessore della porta per cui viene venduto perch poi risulta pi complicato adattarlo.
La porticina mi soddisfa molto
Sinceramente le istruzioni x il montaggio non ci sono sembrate comprensibili. Me l ha installata il mio compagno molto bravo a fare i lavori manuali ma ci arrivato con l intuito.
Seems to be very well made, solid and secure in the door. My dogs have no problem getting in and out and seems to have cut way down on the cold draft from the old pet door.
Nous avions une chatire basique avec un volet plastique transparent. Mais les jours de vent le volet passait l’horizontale et laissait entrer froid et pluie.
Avec cette nouvelle chatire c’est bien hermtique et je constate une diffrence de chaleur dans la pice.
Les chats ont mis deux jours s’y faire ( j’ai eu quelques apprhensions) mais maintenant c’est dans leur routine et cela ne les empche pas de nous rapporter des souris vivantes ou mortes.
Dommage qu’elle n’existe qu’en blanc (notre porte est gris anthracyte)
Franchement parfait a part la fermeture elle a du mal ce mettre sur l’aima
Also wir habe lange nach einer wirklich wetterfesten Tr gesucht, weil unser Kater nur durch die Terrassentr im Wohnzimmer ins Freie kann, wir haben diese dann von einem Tischler einbauen lassen und sind zufrieden. Unser Kater benutzt sie zwar nur widerwillig und es hat etwas gedauert (ca. 3 Wochen), aber nun ist er flexibel. Fr uns war auch wichtig, dass sie ohne Chip oder Halsband funktioniert, denn er ist nicht gechipt sondern ttowiert und bei Halsbndern kratzt er sich am Hals unentwegt bis da kein Haar mehr ist. Fr uns war diese Tr die beste Lsung.
Our puppy figured it out in minutes and within weeks is a pro. At the time of this review it is 36. I just put my hand up to it and can maybe feel a little cold air coming from the edges but barely noticeable. Surpassed our expectations. My only concern that may not pertain to most people is we dont know how big our puppy’s going to get so im concerened as shes groing so fast that shell grow out of this and we’ll need to get the next size up.
Superb design. This was fitted into my south-facing upvc porch door (into a pvc panel – not in the glazing). My Lhasa apso dog learnt how to work the flap within days. I did as other reviewers suggested and taped up the flaps so she learnt to hop in and out through the hole, then the next day just left the central insulated flap down. The third day I dropped one of the magnetic flaps. And the fourth day she could easily push through the full door. She has lots of dog friends who visit. I was amused to see her best mate, a Border Collie/ Labrador cross, easily use the flap too (with zero training just following my dog). We’ve recently had a very strong storm with 80 mph winds. The flap has not flapped about under any weather. It has not let rain in. It does let a small draught through – but I don’t mind that at all. Really great purchase.
Macht nicht zu bleibt immer offen und daher ist nicht Wetter fest und zu eng ist auch so vom Qualitt her wrde passen , nicht zufrieden kostet nur sehr viel Geld
Einfache Montage. Auch unsere Hunde haben schnell verstanden wie es funktioniert und nutzen die Freiheit gerne. Auch bei Minustemperaturen nicht zugig.
Ein Stern Abzug, da der Einsatz, mit dem man die Tr verschlieen kann sehr schlecht in die Fhrung passt. Schade
Ottimo prodotto, robusto e di qualit. Il mio cucciolo di 2,5 mesi di Lagotto Romagnolo ha imparato subito come funziona diventando subito autonomo ( sempre possibile bloccarlo con la paratia in dotazione). La misura M che ho acquistato dovrebbe essere idonea per il mio cane ma mi sembra un p piccolina vedremo in futuro quando sar adulto: alla peggio ne acquister una pi grande.
Unico neo: non esiste la versione verniciata marrone (io l’ho riverniciata per adattarla meglio al mio portone in legno).
Etwas teuer aber gut. Nur fr eine dicke Hauswand kann man nicht alle drei benutzen. Aber wir sind wirklich zufrieden….bis jetzt mal sehen ob diese Klappen auch so lange halten wie die Alten die wir schon viele Jahre haben und das bei 5 Hunden und ab und an Welpen.
La puerta para las mascotas ha resuelto nuestras vidas. Ya no hay que levantarse a cada rato para abrir la puerta. Entran y salen a gusto. No entra fro. La que escogimos es la ms grande porque tengo tres mastines. Es cierto que pasa una persona por ella, pero tiene que atenerse a lo que se encontrar del otro lado de la puerta para mascotas 🙂
Est genial, mi perro y toda la familia estamos encantados.
En ocasiones le cuesta cerrar en su sitio porque el imn se queda en el lado contrario pero an as apenas entra fro.
I have had petsafe pet doors for two decades now and most of them would be considered indoor or warm weather doors. They would be frosty in the winter and a conduit of cold air. This door has the double magnetic flaps and an insulated flap between them. The metal frame was key this time since I bought a plastic frame extreme pet door and the plastic frame was bullied around by the uneven metal that resulted when I cut the metal door (foam in the middle). Would buy again but I don’t think I have too for some time.
Note, the dog used the new door without hesitation but my cat is having a hard time figuring it out again.
Je suis vraiment trs content de mon achat, la trappe est bien emballe et une fois sortie de cette emballage on remarque tout de suite que ce produit est de trs bonne qualit.
Dans le paquet nous retrouvons tout d’abord une notice trs bien explique et traduite en FR, EN, NL, ES, IT, DE (Il y en a pour tout le monde).
De plus un gabarit papier de perage et dcoupe est prvu (Pratique pour faire du bon travail)
Le reste du contenu : Trappe (deux parties), toute la visserie utile au montage, et le panneaux qui consiste condamner l’accs ou lors de fortes intempries.
Conclusion : Installation trs facile, aprs installation on remarque que la trappe remplie parfaitement son rle autant niveau thermique que pour son rle principal. Mes chiens l’ont directement adopte !
En soit trs bon produit, mais bonjour la Visserie… Des vises en plastique de trs mauvaise qualit. Vraiment Dommage… Aprs la porte rajouter pour clturer la trappe est difficile mettre et enlever, c’est vraimentm les soirs
LOVED this door. We are in Texas and worry about the heat getting in more than the winter cold. There is a slight gap between the edge of the door and the flap that goes back and forth. I’ve lived in Upstate NY and don’t think this would be good for the extremely cold months of February and March. However, I think this will be great for the summers here in the south.
Ich hatte vorher die einfache Version des PetSafe Staywell Aluminium Gre L und immer bei Sdwind wurde die Klappe vom Wind permanent geffnet und es kam kalte Luft herein. Durch das 3-Klappen-System der neuen PetSafe Hundehaustr msste schon ein Orkan wten. Die Klappe ist immer super geschlossen, bei mir laufen fnf Hunde den ganzen Tag ein und aus. Auch die Montage in den “alten” Auschnitt war relativ einfach, wir muten nur den Ausschnitt um 2 mm jeweils oben und unten abschleifen und somit vergrern. Auch habe ich dazu den PetSafe Einbauadapter fr Aluminium Hundeklappe fr extremes Wetter, Hundeklappe Verlngerung fr Tren mit weniger als 38mm Dicke, Gre L gekauft – pat perfekt!
Was easily installed in the same door where my dogs killed the last dog flap, seems to keep out the elements and cold air but let the dogs have free access. As the puppy is only a third of the weight of the bigger dogs he literally charges or launches himself at the dog flap.
Will have to see if it lasts longer than the original which was designed for upto 20kg dogs, mine are 3 times that so in fairness no surprise that it only lasted a month.
In der Ausfhrung Alu macht sie einen robusten Eindruck. Geht dich die 3 Klappen natrlich etwas schwerer, aber dadurch, dass die Hunde es gewohnt sind haben sie es schnell angenommen.
Bei Einbau in dnnere Tren als angegeben, kann man sich auf der Innenseite mit etwas handwerklichen Geschick selber helfen.
Zur Langlebigkeit kann ich noch nichts sagen, aber auf jedenfall lnger als eine Plaste Klappe. Vorallen wenn die Hunde es eilige haben raus oder rein zu kommen.
Id have to say i was very impressed with how well this door was built and holds up! Easy for the dog to use, and does not let the outside elements inside the house! If you are thinking of buying this product, don’t think and just Do!
I just replaced another PetSafe pet door that I installed 4.5 years ago. This was the same size as the original one except the other one was not the Extreme Weather model. Height wise this fit the same hole however width wise this was about an inch narrower. Other than it making my dog unable to hit the door at 100mph because the width, it is a quality door.
The magnets on the outside door aren’t strong enough to stop the wind from moving then, but there’s no breeze making it through the whole.
The combined doors are quite heavy for cats to push through, but after a bit of training with just a single door attached they did get the hang of i
We installed in the window easily. It fit perfect! The dogs love it! Our dogs have stopped scratching on our door. We live in West Texas with high winds and can have all 4 seasons of weather in 1 day. Yesterday we had 57 mile an hour winds and it did blow it open we had to close it. Other than that we love it.
All in all a fab product, relatively easy to fit and does exactly what it claims to do.
Wir haben die Klappe noch nicht so lang aber bisher sind wir sehr zufrieden.
Der Einbau ging schnell und einfach.
Das Herbst Wetter hat sie gut draussen gehalten wir sind auf den Winter gespannt.
Devo ammettere che un ottimo prodotto e resistente, totalmente in alluminio e finestrella in ottima qualit
Non passano spifferi
Fairly sturdy build. Easy installation. Flaps are heavy and have a magnetic bottom so they close as well as a dog door can. Not blown open by wind and hasn’t let in any water during the last couple of big storms.
We have a 50 pound lab mix and she’s got plenty of space to get through.
I didnt read any instructions. I watched utube videos b4 i bought it. This is the easiest fasted bit of diy i have ever done…..do not be scared to cut your door!
Would fit literally any dog, its huge, be sure to measure your door tho, I purchased this for my sisters house and it didn’t fit the back door so I took it back to mine and it fit my back door perfectly, we both have rottweilers and could have done with a smaller size, not complaining just for an idea for people
La chatire est bien en soit mais attention ne pas avoir une porte trop mince sinon elle ne tient pas trs bien… Ce n’est prcis nul part sur la description et c’est dommage maintenant quelle est pos je ne me vois pas la renvoyer … J’ai russi en ajoutant une planche contre ma porte. Sinon isole pas mal des courants d’air j’ai peur que mon chat ne parvienne pas l’ouvrir du coup … On verra
With two Sheppards, human is not really a concern…
I live in the mountains at 5000 foot level and I wouldn’t expect perfect weather protection after cutting a hole in my door. It does very well. I have no complaints.
It does keep the wind out. I purchased the upgrade with insulation pad in the middle. I recommend it.
This is a nice door and fits our dogs needs very well. In rating the above categories – “weatherproof” & “energy efficient” I gave four stars. (Anytime you cut a hole in a door or wall, it’s not going to be energy efficient.) It does work very well to keep the rain outside and the summer heat at bay. The cold nights in winter will be a bigger test but we’ve purchased these doors for previous homes and they work well, but it’s not 100% weatherproof, you may still get a draft, especially during the cold windy nights. The layered door flap design does make a very big difference in making it more efficient over single flap doors. We would recommend PetSafe doors.
Installe sur une porte de service de 4 cm d’paisseur. Je ne suis pas un grand bricoleur mais l’installation se fait assez facilement. La notice est bien faite. Installe pendant l’t, je ne pourrai juger de l’isolation que cet hiver, mais avec les 3 paisseurs, je pense tre tranquille ce niveau-l. Par contre, elle est un peu bruyante. Malgr cela, je ne regrette pas mon achat (j’aurais mme d l’acheter bien avant). Le chat (6,5 kg) a assez rapidement compris le principe (j’ai d le pousser au dbut car il doit forcer un peu pour passer les 3 volets). Ne manque plus que le distributeur programmable de croquettes pour passer des nuits tranquilles !
Pretty easy installation and the directions help tremendously. The XL give my medium size dogs (50/60 lbs) enough room to go in and out of the house. Never have to worry about them doing their business in the house when I’m at work all day. The plastic safety protector from letting other unwanted animals is a great addition to close it off at night and bad weather. Would highly recommend this doggie door.
This I a well constructed dog door that is the perfect size fo our large pyrendoodle. It was easy to install and has three layers of weather protection for our cold Canadian winters.
Best of all I received it from Amazon in jus two days.
This is a nicely insulated dog door with two doors and a middle insulated panel.
The dog door that was originally in the house was the same size, however only one flap.
The summer heat was streaming through the dog door and I’m sure it would do the same in the cold.
This should help with heating and cooling costs and the animals don’t seem to have any problem with the additional flaps.
I didn’t like how you screwed it together.. made it more difficult than it had to be. Just put a nut on the outside of the bolt and call it good. But once it’s together it’s nice.
First I needed to make the existing hole in our door smaller. The hole template was invaluable at this stage.The-new door was easy to fit. What took the time was fitting decorative mouldings to hide the infills.
Our dog soon mastered the task of getting out of the door, but barked to come back in especially in the early hours of the morning. We put a night light in our utility room, which seems to have solved the problem!
We are confident that our new door will not blow open as readily as the previous one did.
I gave this 5 stars for ease of installation because the actual dog door is easy to install. However, cutting a metal clad door is not as easy as videos show lol. Nonetheless this is a great product and well worth it.
facile da montare, molto robusto e sopratutto i gatti lo usano senza problemi
Antes tenamos la misma puerta pero la versin ms sencilla de un solo batiente. Se abra con el viento y dejaba entrar mucho fro. Indiscutiblemente esta versin para “condiciones climticas extremas” es mucho mejor compra que la otra.
Necesitaris tomar un tiempo en educar a vuestro perro a usarla sin miedo. No le obliguis, simplemente poned premios al otro lado y abrid un poco la puerta para que vea que pude pasar.
Had to get a handyman/carpenter to install it, but once installed, it’s been wonderful. Our two, large, chocolate labs think it’s wonderful too! Happiness is dogs coming and going on their own! Its nice and sturdy and using the security panel gives us control of when it’s in use – and who is using it!
Should come with 2 covers for when you want to restrict access! Dog only knows it’s out of action from one side! (Bought anther from pet safe USA site!) flaps are sturdy, my 7kg puppy has no problem getting through.
Sur ce modle il n’y pas de pas petits poils autour, pas de risque qu’ils s’enlvent et laissent passer l’air avec le temps.
Le clapet pour “condamner” la chatire en cas de grosses intempries est tout fait apprciable.
Je suis compltement satisfaites de mon investissement.
I had to pay someone to put this in for me and they had no problems. I live in Oklahoma and it gets windy here and I have not had a problem with rain or wind coming through. I bought a medium size even though I have a little 10 lb dog. It took a couple of days and using hotdog treats but he figure it out. Now he loves it and I don’t have to pay for a dog walker !
Excellent product. Much better than the one with a single flap. The corridor where my dogs flap is was cold but it’s now really snug and warm. Took dogs a while to get used to it. Cat had no problem though
Bought this to replace an existing dog flap of the same make as needed additional insulation from the weather. Installation was a bit tricky even with two people you need about six hands each to hold it all in place whilst you tighten all the fixings. However, once installed and the flaps adjusted slightly it does a great job keeping the weatherout, even the cat can still easily use it.
Verbaesserungsvorschlge: Quellband beilegen, etwas dickeres Blech, oben & unten Lcher vorsehen & eine Blende ber das Montageblech der Klappen. Zack fertig ist das Topprodukt! Ach ja – die Plasteschrauben gehren in einen Lego Bausatz!
Auch wenn die Garagenklappe nur ein wenig offen geblieben ist wurde es im Haus kalt! Wir haben gesucht und in der 2. Katzenklappe gefunden. Sie verhindert das die Klte von der Garage in den Keller herein kommt!
Die Klappe kann ich als Einzel Klappen System wie auch zweit System nur empfehlen.
Viel angenehmer fr die Katzen wre, wenn die Klappen durchsichtig wren!!
Al momento non posso mettere le 5 stelle perch la devo ancora installare.
Die ffnung der Klappe is etwas hackelig, aber dafr ist die Dmmung besser als bei anderen Klappen, man kann eben nicht alles haben.
Le produit ne laisse pas passer l’air. La promesse est tenue a ce niveau l.
Pour des chats, il arrive que les aimants ne se reclipsent pas si les chats n’y vont pas “franco” pour rentrer.
Attention : l’paisseur minimale de la porte doit tre comprise entre 4,1 cm et 5,7 cm. Je ne trouve pas a clair dans la description produit.
Une fois installe, donne largement satisfaction par rapport une chatire classique qui laisse entrer l’air froid.
Install: The install was easy, once I had made a modification because my door was only 2.5cm thick (the product suggests: most doors 4.1 – 5.7cm thick). The issue for me was the that plastic header for the middle flap is rather thick and hits the header for the outer door flap. My hack-fix was to unscrew the middle flap and saw that header down by what I needed (for me it was about 6mm) with a hack saw. I just eyeballed the cut – was not 100% straight, but when I re-attached the middle flap I had just enough space to assemble the two frames onto my door…… just. After cutting the screw holes are still visible to screw back in the middle flap and are deep enough to do so 🙂 .. well, it did say in the manual, under things you will need: “competent DIY skills” 😮 -or in my case incompetent!
Weatherproof – v-strong winds can open the flap, but then that is what the “storm shield” panel is for – so no issue there really.
Warmth – pretty good, better then other flaps I have used. My only slight issue here is that all three flaps leave a slight gap around the sides. It looks like they spent a lot of time perfecting the bottom seal and forgot this. A bit of foam or brushes would maybe solve this.
Looks great!
Best door ever owned. Used Pet safe single flap XL for over 15 years first with 2 boxers now with 2 basset hounds. Extreme weather is just what I needed. There was nothing wrong with old door frame was fine I just replaced the flap as needed. This new door with 3 flaps was well worth the price and time to remove the old door and get a nice upgrade. I know this will save on my energy bill! The dogs easily adapted to new flap system. I have to admit basset hounds don’t easily adapt to changes. Good job Pet Safe!!!
Previously had 3 of the single flap models all in use, but one was susceptible to wind so was replaced by this new three flap model and is much better.
No es mala compra pero en mi caso, No se ajustaba al grosor de la puerta. De tamao bastante grande.
passt gut in dickere tren , sind sie jedoch <54 cm ist die klappe selbst zu gro, es sind zwar abdichtungen fr diesen fall vorgesehen ,doch selbst mit diesen muss man die klappe noch an der tr befestigen, ziemlich problemfrei mit einer holztr und ein paar schrauben , aber optisch nicht der hit deswegen 4 sterne
This is a good door for the price. A flap door is never going to be excellent at weatherproofing or energy efficiency, but this one is pretty good. I particularly like the sliding panel that clicks into place. The panel can easily keep out unwanted critters (we use it when we are away from home) and can be used on particularly bad weather days to improve weather proofing – just remember, with the panel in place your pet will need to be let in and out.
I already had a Petsafe dog door. It was one flap door. In winter and summer my utility bill was HUGE. I have made an upgrade since the previous door was installed. I have put in the three flap door in its place. Since I have installed the new door I have felt less draft immediately. What impressed me was I had to do NO modification to an existing opening. It was a direct bolt in replacement. I might update this review next summer season.
A glazed door panel was replaced with a composite panel, into which the flap was fitted. The flap was fitted into this panel before the panel was fitted into the door. Fitting was straightforward, cutting a hole to the size of a template and then screwing the 2 halves together. The flap, like others will require adjustment in the winter and summer to compensate for expansion and extraction. It comes with a cover, so if the weather is especially bad, it will seal the dog flap. This can also stop the dog using it, should you need to.
So far, this has been a great door. My biggest concern was if it would make the room it was put in hotter, but the room feels the same as it always has.
Two complaints:
The metal pin at the top of the door cover (for when you want to restrict access) easily scratches both the doggy door and regular door if you aren’t careful.
The installation instructions were mildly concerning because they instruct you to leave 3″ at the bottom at minimum for structural integrity. However, when I marked my dog’s position as directed, that put the doggy door at the very bottom of the door. So I compromised and went about 2″ up. It hasn’t seemed to affect the door in a negative way or my dog’s ease of use.
I needed to replace my doggy door. I have 2 dogs and a 5lb cat that had learned to open the old one, she is an indoor cat. So when replacing the old one I decided to try the 3 flaps so it would be too heavy for the cat. It WORKED.
Day 1: dogs would not use it, I think because they could not see through it. I flapped it open so they could see that they could still go out. No success.
Day 2: I kept showing them how to use it. Toward the end of the day the causally moved through it.
Day 3: In and out like the old one!
Didn’t actually install it ourselves but it looked easy. Doesn’t blow in wind. Keeps warm in no draft and hard wearing. 6 small dogs and 4 cats use it on a daily basis. Great product. One slight negative is when the cover is on the pets can push through anyway but we don’t really use it so not an issue.
L’installation est assez fastidieuse mme pour une bricoleuse ! Prvoyez bien 2 3heures pour l’installation. L’emboitement du tunnel avec les deux faces est une plaie si on est seul !
Je suis tout de mme trs satisfaite du rsultat ! L’isolation est plutt pas mal, on ne sent rien moins d’approcher sa main trs prs de l’ouverture, et encore….Mais cette chattire pour chien fais bien son job !
J’enlve une toile pour la difficult du montage et les fameuses vis en plastiques…j’en ai evidemment cass une, comme tout le monde
Fantastic dog door. Easy enough to install, with a little basic DIY skill and the right tools (I fitted mine with the door still hanging, took around an hour). The triple flap is really efficient at keeping the wind and cold out. Our old flap would swing around in windy conditions, which would be noisy as well as cold. This one doesn’t do that at all, even in the worst winter conditions. It’s also very good at keeping the cold out and doesn’t suffer from condensation, which is something we experienced with other flaps. One thing to be mindful of is that your pet will not be able to see through this flap as it’s not transparent, and will need to use a bit more force to get through the door. We found this to actually be a good thing as it has forced our dog to take her time when going through, rather than sprinting through full speed! It may, though, mean it takes a little longer to train your pet to use the door.
Ci voluto il ricorso ad un po’ di bricolage per modificare l’infisso mediante la sostituzione del vetro camera con un pannello in legno nel quale ho ricavato l’alloggiamento del Petsafe.
Il mio cagnolino di 13 kg ci passa “a pelo”…..ma ci passa.
L’unica cosa che non menzionata nelle note che il pannello sul quale alloggiare il PetSafe Extreme Weather deve avere uno spessore di almeno 30 mm.
Grazie a Petsafe, in famiglia, abbiamo finito di soffrire il freddo per potergli lasciare la porta accostata per i suoi bisogni..
The carpenter installed it in a new door that we had fitted and it is very weather proof on a SW facing door that bears the brunt of the winter rain and wind. Unfortunately paint does not stick to it well, so the brown paint to match the door has chipped off in many places. We will try using an abrasive on it before repainting it to help the paint key onto it. Our dogs mastered removing the cover within 2 months so we are replacing the cover with a purpose made wooden cover.
We chose to instal our flap in the dining room wall as we have 2 sets of french doors and didnt fancy the cost of replacing them! A builder used an angle grinder to cut out a home in the double skin wall, lined it with wood, to create a tunnel, then screwed both the inside n outside flaps directly onto the wood. It took him 3hrs to do (including the clean up) and cost me 100 pounds labour. I gave the review a 5star for easy to instal because a good ‘diy’er could easily do it themselves if they can hire an angle grinder.
Theres absolutely no draft coming through the flap. The flap magnets are doing their job and we are all loving the big difference its made to all our lives…including the pup’s.
I have attached a short video n photo.
Easy to install. It really is weatherproof. Very happy dog
Prodotto eccezionale una volta montato, qualche difficolt nelle istruzioni di taglio dei pannelli i neri interni….. i miei cani lo adorano e non entra troppo freddo, ottimo in caso di vento, non si muove. Consigliato
Qualita’ ottima nei materiali. le 3 ante proteggono bene.
unico problema e’ che gatti di piccola taglia potrebbero avere difficolta’ nell’aprire. io ho 2 gatti e un cane e il gatto piu’ piccolo di dimensioni fa un po’ difficolta’.
Certainly weather proof and neat.
My Jack did take some convincing to use as she can’t see though it as with most other flaps.
Seul hic : le volet qui bloque la chatire : mon chat a compris comment “l’arracher” et il s’est fait la malle… Depuis, j’ai perc les ailettes du volet de fermeture et je le fixe avec des crochets la porte. Ainsi, IMPOSSIBLE de faire tomber le volet et mon chat est en scurit lorsque je suis absente !!!!
Pour moi cet article vaut presque les 5 etoiles , mais … ;
Je suis super content de cette trappe , elle repond vraiment a ses fonctions ( ni froid , ni chaud ) elle est vraiment top !
Le seul bemol ( et svp PEtsafe faite le necessaire , que le montage est une vraie galere … ( A emboiter il faut etre 2 , les vis sont en plastique )
Mais aprs cette petite galere ( il faut compter 1 h sans recoupe ) c’est un vrai bonheur … !
Pas de froid , ni de vent , meme le chaud ne passe pas …
Mon chat est super mefiant , mais il s’est vite habitu ! Et il es libre de ses mouvements
La trappe rempli trs bien sa fonction ! Attention tout de meme au finitions … ( des caches vis seraient bienvenue )
Apres il faut couper sa porte …
Choisir entre sa porte et le bien etre du chat …
Very heavy flaps especially for puppies, but good quality produc
Used a Worx Wx667.1 Sonicrafter Multi Tool that cost me 39.99 and had it done in an hour. Quite simple but you need a steady hand trying to door it whilst the door is still hung (ideally you take the door off but the hinges are broken).
The flap is great, just what I wanted with that bit of extra weather protection and looks like it will keep in the heat as best I could hope for (it is a flap over an exposed hole after all!). It has the 3 flaps inc the inner weather shield and so far with it being -2c outside is doing an ok job. Only time will tell if the flaps stay firm and tight once used for a year or so. I was happy to see you can purchase replacement flaps to bring it back to life if that happens.
So overall defiantly worth the money and after some gentle, patient, treat orientated persuasion my border terrier went through it! (Took all afternoon to get her to push through it on her own but she never says no to a bit of cheese to chase after!)
Fantastic product. I am a Dog carer and all my guest dogs love to go through this flap
Not installed yet, but I have every confidence that it will be much more draught proof than others I have had
Check the measurements before you buy as the medium which is describe as for a medium dog or large cat is very big, it would suit an ENOURMOUS cat!! I think a small child could crawl through it. The large must be the size for the pony featured in the Prime ad!
