    This is our 3rd door in 16years, our border collie cross is just very enthusiastic when she goes in/out. I feel some of the plastic door frame could be a bit more substantial also the magnet really doesnt always keep the good old british wind out. All in all it does what it is suppose to do 🙂

    This is a fab catflap, my 2 cats now treat their home like a hotel, in and out every 5 mins had the odd gift brought to me in the shape of a mouse, its magnetic so closes closed immediately, it took my hubby and neighbour a while to do as was tricky.

    I like the clear door so dog is more likely to use it.
    With our puppy we had to tape it up until she got used to using it and then she was confident to go through.

    Perfect for a cat, although I don’t have a cat. It’s was an impulse buy, just because I’m crazy like that. I plan to get a cat soon, and when I do, I’m going to be encouraging the little furball to use this regularly. That’s how I roll.

    We use this on an internal door from our kitchen to porch, it works fine but the locking mech isn’t great. Our door is really thick so you have to pull on the plastic lip in order to slide the plastic lock down, the lock is just a plastic board that you slide down to stop the flap from opening. We don’t really lock it often, and now just block the flap with a bag of cat litter instead.

    Very good item when in use. Maybe a bit fiddly to install for some less practical people. Have had 3 now and although they have all lasted well the last two have suffered the same fate ie. Broken thin section at the top of the outer flap.

    This is ideal for my border collie. He now has access to the toilet outdoors. It is very durable as he has to run through it when chasing cats or aeroplanes.
    Only down fall is the screws. You have to fit it to get the size that you need then you have to find a way to cut the screws. The screws have to be cut to allow the panel for locking it in. Would have been better to have a few sized screws.

    Good DIY skills are essential especially when cutting with a jig-saw.

    Bought this for my two Maine Coon cats to access a private litter box cupboard. Size seems right and for the price it’s perfectly fine, but agree with others that installation was not the easiest and it’s a bit of a rough finish if you have a non-flat door. The bolts poke through the ‘inside’ so will be putting some rubber or foam covers over to ensure the kitties don’t injure themselves if they rush through.

    I had a friend help me install this as you do have to take down the door and it needs some DIY know-how plus the right tools. Definitely a two-person job if only for re-hanging the door. Our cat is still small and hasn’t reached the critical mass needed to overcome the magnetic lock but I’m hoping that once she reaches her full size that won’t be a problem anymore. I would not use this with an outside door as it would really let the cold in. For what we needed it’s perfect.

    This cat flap is easy to install. Locking is done by sliding the white plastic screen into the outer side of the frame. Less fiddly than a turning lock mechanism. The flap is lightweight and my small cat manages it easily. The flap is clear plastic but not very see-through. I’ve noticed the cat stares a bit anxiously before going through, but at least she will use it. The cat flap (another brand) I had before was too heavy.

    Fantastic catflap, easy to fit and nice and big for my rather rotund felines. Ironically though, the only reason I needed to buy it in the first place was the fact that a previous Amazon delivery driver destroyed our previous catflap by stuffing a parcel through it that was obviously too big, sending shattered pieces of catflap all over our hall way!!!! Thankyou Amazon.

    I bought this cat flap for the gate into my back garden and the programmed cat flap into the house. The cat flap is inexpensive and ideal for this purpose.
    Some wood had to be added to the surround to fit it which means it opens wider one way than the other. My cat loves it as he can sitting looking through it and get in and out of the garden more easily now that is is getting quite old.

    Thats down to it not being fitted properly. Well that’s what I think anyway.

    Fantastic brand cat flap. I bought It to replace a very old Pet Safe cat flap that has lasted really well, but looked a bit tired since having it for 17 years. I was redecorating so I bought a new one to look fresh. It fit beautifully with no extra adjustments to the door needed.

    Good item, excellent value, super fast delivery.

    My flap has been fitted in a standard wooden internal door. Once fitted the inner part of the door can still be seen inbetween each side of the flap, not an issue in my situation, but it may be worth getting a flap with a tunnel if you have a UPVC door. There is no locking mechanism as such, but the flap is supplied with a solid piece of plastic that will slot into the flap to block use.

    Very happy with item – recommended

    We fitted this dog door for my Jack Russell and Dachshund so that they can come in and out of the garden by themselves. Although the door is perfect and there is plenty of room for them to fit through (Dachshund is a little large) neither of them are able to figure out how to use it and my Jack Russell is nervous around the door flap and hasn’t figured out how to get through it. Apart from that ideal size, looks nice and in time hopefully will do the job!

    This is my third purchase of this item and each of its predecessors has lasted over 7 years of serious trashing by our exuberant terriers. The plastic outer flap seems to crack under the strain eventually but as the screw holes of the latest model fit the holes in the door exactly, and the entry/exit hole perfectly ,it can be preplaced in minutes! An excellent buy. I shall probably need a new one in 2027/2028 however!

    Firstly, this is a simple, easy to use, entrance / exit for the cat of reasonable intelligence, requiring NO chips NO batteries and NO keys. This was a replacement unit, (the first one lasted twenty years and was destroyed by next door’s cat hurtling in to take refuge from something nasty with large teeth in our garden.). Fitting is simple, requiring a few simple tools and a modest amount of skill to cut a hole in the door. Since I was replacing a previous unit, I had no holes to drill, everything fitted first time. Consider this. The design has not changed in twenty years. In this day and age that’s not bad.

    Had a handy man come fit it glad I did took him an hour to do ! More complicated than the smaller cat one lots of cutting and measurements. my cocker spaniel was getting stuck so needed a bigger one. Pushes it open both dog n cat easily enough. Stays open with winds but only when they have just gone through it and it’s still flapping have to push it shut, so could make room cold. No in or out lock just a slide in panel.

    A simple, no frills flap, as you’d expect at this price. Comparatively easy to install, the only two observations I’d make are that the available space between the main hole and the screw (bolt) holes is very limited, meaning the margin of error in cutting the main hole is small. Cut too wide and the bolts won’t have any material to bite into. Secondly, the bolts are a very tight fit against the body of the flap, meaning they’re a bit awkward to tighten without damaging the frame.

    All in all, a simple plastic flap that will hopefully be adequate for the purpose.

  64. KathlenMulvany says:

    It works well! We wanted to try a normal cheap flap before considering a microchip sensor one in the future. It’s lightweight, so pup can push through easily from 2months ish. Has a magnet to catch the flap and keep it in place; not amazing in a storm, but you can’t have it both ways! Has an additional flap insert so that you can lock it at night etc.

    Great door for the cats to get in and out.
    A friend fitted it for me into a piece of wood and replaced a glass panel on the side of the door.
    Looks good, bangs a bit but hopefully the cats will get used to it.
    As the weather is nice I have attached a string to keep it open so the can get used to using it.
    My older cat used it the next day and was in and out of it, a new game for her.

    Our old Staywell cat flap was destroyed by a flapping pigeon that our cat decided to bring in, so I had to buy this to replace it. It fitted exactly, with the screw holes in the same place, so it was just what was needed. It comes intwo parts, the hinged flap on the outside and an inner section with a drop-down white plastic closure for when you need to lock the flap.

    The cats like the new flap better than the old one, as the centre window (with the PetSafe logo) has a completely clear area through which they can spy on what’s going on in the garden. They are not comfortable with opaque flaps.

  70. SusannaClaude says:

     United Kingdom

    What I mean by challenge is because the white border covering the magnets is movable, my cat’s paw sometimes gets stuck when she withdraws her hand away from the flap. She isn’t the brightest bulb, but it did stop her from going outside as she couldn’t figure it out.

    Installation was okay, but you have to ensure you have the tools to cut your screws down to size. The package comes with 3 sets of screws of varying length, but you will need to cut them to size. If not, the flap won’t work…

    Otherwise, great size hole for the shape and size with good magnets to keep the wind out, but your cat freely moving!

    I bought this as a replacement as the previous one had a warped frame. The new one, however, had the word Petsafe embossed on the locking flap which meant that it caught on the frame, so I have to use the locking flap from the old one. This is a design fault which I consider could have been predicted and hope that this will be changed, either leaving the word off altogether or making sure it is flush with the flap This cat flap is, however, the most secure I have come across, as cats cannot burst through it when locked in the way they can with the four-way one with knobs. I would buy it again but the design fault mentioned above does need attention.

    Generally very pleased with this, which my neighbour fitted for me, but he had trouble with the tiny nuts, which are really small and fiddly, and also the bolts that they fixed onto were VERY soft – they were bending as he cut them to size, which means they are not very good quality. However, now it is in place it looks good, and the cats appreciate the clear screen as they were nervous about what was the other side of the cat flap on my old solid-flap cat-flap. One cat is using it voluntarily and the other has gone through with a helping shove from me, so hopefully will get used to it soon.

    For the price this pet door is good value. It is made of plastic and therefore a bit flimsy but will probably withstand my dog “crashing” through it for the foreseeable future. I had one of these before in a previous property and the plastic became a little brittle after a few years and I had to repair if a few times when the plastic inner frame broke. I suspect that the same thing will happen again in a few year’s time. Let’s wait and see, but for the price it is still worth it…

Negatives would be the position of the screw holes, very close to the edge of the frame you have to be very accurate with your cut out. Also there is no filler/tunnel with this so you see the raw edges of the door inside the flap. Positives, comes with 3 different lengths of bolts so should be something for all doors. I put mine in the garden gate and used the medium length. It’s fairly generous for a small flap, my large cat has managed to bring himself and a flapping pigeon through it! The colour is nice just as shown I’ve seen some brown flaps are a fake wood grain this is just glossy dark brown. Well that’s as much as you can say about a cat flap really.

    It works like a dream and my cocker spaniels now have access to the garden, and have got over their initial fear. I would give it 5*, but the screws were in very awkward places, making the fitting of it very fiddly. Hoping it will stop the howling gale that the old pet flap let through, but won’t know until the weather worsens.

    This is the second one purchased, the first having broken around the flimsy side of the door frame but not complaining it lasted many years of use. It is easy to install and simple design. We have it fitted in place of a glass pane so its slim profile makes it ideal whereas some flaps are deep for brick holes. Excellent value if you want a basic doo

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersGot this to replace one I had fitted 10 years ago but has now disintegrated due to weathering and sunlight. Comes with several sets of screws – but sadly none of them fitted the thickness of my door. I was able to remove three old screws(thanks WD40!) and fit the new door – the 4th had to be sawn off and I’m now hunting a replacement. The door is said to match the earlier models – and 99% it does, but the swing flap is a couple of mm wider so I will have to file it down to stop it catching. The fitting, like the original, does not fit flush with the door, so, as before, some sealant will be required. (This may not be a problem for everyone, but my builders who installed the original when I had an extension built had this problem.) That all said, it looks good and the drop down door seal/lock works fine. Once I’ve ironed out these quibbles I’m sure I’ll get another 10 years. I was relieved to find that the screw holes do match those of the original door.

    Just bought my third (keep moving) and I like the fact it has a sliding panel on the inside that you can use to keep your animal in and all others out without the need for a transmitter around the pet’s neck. My only gripe is that the fixing holes are SO CLOSE to the edge – like about 2mm – so you have to be ultra accurate when cutting the hole. Make it too big and you have nowhere for the fixing screws but if you cut it ever so slightly under-size then the flap won’t open.

    Arrived very quickly, is exactly as described, fits perfectly in the place of he old one that my cat’s broke 2 nights ago. Couldn’t be happier. 🙂
    I select this one as I don’t want to keep other peoples cats out (there are some local cats who are sometimes left out in bad weather and take shelter in my house, my cats don’t seem to mind so I don’t). If you need one that can be used to keep other cats out you will need a more expensive model with a collar magnet lock or a chip scanner. If not, this is ideal.

    Perfect for my needs and good service.

    Comes with a hard plastic flap and a rubber one. the hard plastic one is ok but if you have a crazy dog who loves to throw herself through the door it can crack. And if you have a friend visit with her dog who doesnt know what a dog flap is, dont shut the door with the dog on the outside as when it paws at the flap it will break the outer frame.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersThis is cheap and cheerful. No options for keeping cats in or out, and it makes a loud noise when it falls shut. It would be irritating if fitted in an external door if it was a windy day. I have it fitted in an internal door though, so need not worry about strange cats or wind.

    It’s very basic, but the build quality is sound. As long as your needs are simple, this is a good buy.

    Good quality door but I have had a few over the years an now to cut corners ( save them money on production)
    The blank that you slide in to hold shut the flap is now very flimsy and no longer has a slide lock but its now a push catch which a clever dog may knock open.

    We have had one of these 2 way pet door before and was satisfied with it. It is a good price, easy to fit and fairly strong, although our cocker spaniel who is no light weight does go crashing through when chasing cats and damaged the last one, but on the whole it is robust and I would recommend i

    The product is excellent and the Aftersales service is second to none!

    The product is easy to fit into a UPVC door panel just a bit of DIY Knowledge and basic tools are required

    I had a problem with one item and was advised to contacted the aftersales division based in Ireland it was Lauren the Customer Care Specialist who immediately sorted out my issue and the parts dispatched and arrived very quickly.

    I also have a Petsafe cat flap which is equally as good!

    This is the fourth (or fifth?) Petsafe Staywell Original Which we’ve bought over the years we’ve owned felines. They work well, The magnet strong enough to hold it closed against the strongest wind.

    The fourth was bought for a through wall tunnel (one on the ‘outside’ wall, one, ‘inside’ the kitchen. I’m sure that any Cat (like ours … a muggy … will get used to this flap.
    Less expensive (in my experience) bought from the Rain Forest, the reason for four stars is simply that on each of the four we’ve bought, the top frame moulding has split. Other than this, used daily this is a robust product and recommend.

    I have had 3 of these, only because my staffy crashes through it and eventually he breaks them, the cats use it with ease and it is just the ticket for the dog too, no more worrying about getting back to let them out should I happen to be having a busy day like Christmas shopping lol, it is recommended to have the next size up for my staff but he copes with this size very well as it was first installed when he was a puppy. However if I were to replace the door I would probably now go for the new metal one just because my dog is a bit fast when someone knocks on the door and tends to smash through it like a bolt out of hell hehe, but saying that only 3 in 5 years isn’t bad when I see what it goes through.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI’ve had many flaps for dogs and cats in my time and having moved house needed a new flap for my collie / lab to go in and out. This was a very good price compared to others I have bought and is slightly smaller than my last flap, but I didnt want anything too big. It is fairly lightweight, and so is easily managed by my ten month old kitten as well. But becuase the flap is lightwieght it does tend to stay open in very high wind. I put the cover in place on this particularly stormy night, but you could also glue some metal weights to the flap to help it close. The flap comes with a slide in cover, so is secure when you want to shut your animals in or are away. It also comes with a sleeve to put between the front and back opening in your door which is good and can be easily cut to size. The only downside of this flap is the design makes it difficult to screw to the wood and there may be a prob with thinner wood splitting, as the screw holes are very close to the opening you have just cut – they could design this with a slightly bigger rim to resolve this prob. It comes with a paper guide, but my huband said it was not very accurate, in the end he just used the flap itself to mark out the most accurate hole to cut and screw holes to fit. It can also be used for pvc and mdf doors.

    This is the second one of these I have bought. The first one fell apart after 11 years of constant use by my Jack Russell dog which, I have no complaints about. The new one makes a bit of a noise similar to the first one when used but for the price I think it is good value for money. I priced this product at a local pet store and it cost 32 the one on Amazon was 17, no contest.

    I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a reasonably priced hatch door, fitting is pretty easy with a bit of DIY skill and the right tools, instructions are clear and there is a template to enable accurate fitting. It keeps out the rain and wind and can be blocked off when not in use.

    If it has a down side it would be that it does not prevent unwanted visitors gaining entry. For this you will need one with a magnetic or electronic locking device.
