PetSafeExtreme Weather Energy Efficient Aluminium Pet Door - Insulated Flap System - Medium

Firstly I want to address a couple of the negatives..The one about it not clearly stating the door thickness and having to buy the extension adapter...it very clearly states "Easily fits into panelled, wood, PVC and metal doors 3.75-5cm"That person clearly hadn't bothered to read the full description.Another one complaining about being able to see light down the sides...that is where the brush bars meet the rubber flaps, they help keep the draft out...if you want double glazing standard, then teach your dog how to use a door handle...they've clearly never had a proper draft rattler pet door that blows the Beast From the East through your door and up your leg in the sitting room...seriously, I soooo appreciate how draft proof this one is!The one about "the mount for the 2 of the flaps blocks the frames from clicking together"...well, firstly they don't block anything, and secondly they don't "click" together, one is very slightly bigger than they other so they very smoothly slide in to each other giving a nice smooth surround to the whole thing, makes it much easier to clean too with muddy dogs.I fitted this very easily on my own in about 30-40 minutes, it only took that long as I struggle with fiddly screws.The instruction are very clear and easy to follow.I absolutely love the padded middle flap, that really does make a difference and helps to keep the rubber flaps apart snd connecting to their own magnets...oh yes, this has 2 sets of magnets, unlike the conventional 1 middle one, this is a game changer as once the two flaps lock in, there is minimal...and I really do mean absolute minimal, draft coming through.I've had years of many different pet flaps, currently 7 furry beasts, and this is by far the best one.I think I got it on a good deal, I paid £47.62 for the medium flap and £10.91 for the medium adapter as my door panel is a standard 28mm, you DO need that extra adapter as you can't fudge it to fit if your panel is not thick enough...it has to be between 3.75-5cm to not need the adapter.We are currently at -4 here is freezing cold Chester, UK and I can barely feel anything from the flap, in fact I can't feel any draft, just a little colder due to the aluminium frame...really can't ask.for more than that.So all in all, I definitely recommend this, so much so I went back and bought another ready to put in the extension.

This is a well made sturdy door flap that works well.It was not that easy to fit because of our door style, we had to pad out around the cut out so that the flap came out enough to allow the door flap shutter to slide in from the top and secure at night.The white plastic screws in the pack seemed flimsy but in use we realised they are slightly flexible which meant it was a lot easier to line up and secure. There were also metal screws for fitting the outer panel, I do see why the other screws are plastic and the door is very secure with them.Dog loves it and is in and out all day long and we dont have to be constantly getting up and down letting him out.Im glad we went for the metal version and the thermal flap, our dog does like to dash though the flap taking his toys with him occasionally which could have been an issue for a plastic flap.We chose not to take the door off to fit which made it more difficult it was much easier with two people helping to line things up.There are adjustment screws to allow the movement of the individual flaps on both sides to make sure it closes well, ours is closing fairly well but we will probably adjust slightly to make it perfect, meantime it does keep out any drafts and no colder than it was in the room. Thumbs up from us :)

The media could not be loaded. Fed up of opening the door for our cats and making sure they are in when we go out, I decided I would get a cat flap. We live in a cold windy part of the country so I went for this expensive "weatherproof" one. I can't say much for how weatherproof it is as I fitted it today on a quiet autumn afternoon. It was simple to fit with the right tools. It took around an hour including sealing it with sealant. It fits well and the flaps sit true In the hole, they are adjustable but didn't need Adjusting for my door. It would be sensible to tighten the screws gently and make sure they aren't too tight, or you end up pulling the frame out of shape, which will mean the flaps don't fit properly. One of my cats has taken to it easily, baring in mind he's never seen a cat flap before. The other one is an idiot but will get it eventually.I suggest sealing it well on both sides with an adhesive sealant rather than bathroom silicone. Also consider making sure that your door keys are kept away from the door for security. I have the small but it would be possible to stick an arm thru the flap and steal door keys.I'll update the review with how weatherproof once we have some bad weather!So far I'd recommend this flap it seems to be of good quality and I can see how it would help the keep the cold and draft out, in comparison to a standard single flap.EXTREME WEATHER UPDATE:This cat flap is not extreme weather proof!We are in the middle of a small storm with 30-40mph gusts of wind. The flap is opening by itself and it is very breezy in my kitchen!Probably still better than a regular single door flap but it's not as great as the packaging would make you believe.

There are 3 magnetted flaps which do a good job of keeping this closed.Sturdy construction and well able for my large and mid size dog.If it is stormy then the flap can blow open - I offset that but putting up a thermal door curtain with a shower curtain against it so it is weather proof, keeps in more heat but dogs can still go in and out.Excellent product - I researched a lot before buying (And cutting into the door) and definitely worth it

An excellent door but was not able to fix to my door as it is made for a much sturdier door,but is a great well made product.
