Cat Mate Lockable Cat Flap With Door Liner to 50mm (2 Inch), Easy Fitting, Fast Installation, Weatherproof, Convenient, Extremely Durable, Draught Excluder, Silent - White (234 W)

I have had the last one for about 8 years but the lock for going out had broken on one side so my cats could still get out. Ive finally got round to replacing it with the same size and model so that i could fit it into the same hole in the door and use the same screw holes so it was easy to replace. But big thanks to recent feedback from C.Orde about his cat flap and the flimsiness of the locks, and his invention to fit a frame on the inside with a drop down door for the night. I have just got a big ginger who has had an injury so must stay in at night with no means of escape, so i have also got a woodworking friend to make me a wooden framework with drop down door on the inside and it is is perfect, works a treat. It will mean the cat flap is more likely to last longer too. So big thanks C.Orde!

Sturdy construction plus easy for cat to use, my cat has issues with back legs so this enables her to come in and out of the garden with the need to jump and climb.So far has been fine in very hot then very wet weather

For the price it is a very useful piece of kit. Works well and easy to lock/unlock. I found it a little bit confusing as to which way the flap should be fitted. In other words, which side should face inwards and which should face outwards. Otherwise, very happy.

Amazon tells me that I last bought this product on 14 May 2013. That means I bought it for my ginger cat 🐈 when it was a kitten. I then acquired a second, black, cat 🐈‍⬛. The two cats have been going in and out every day since then, so it has lasted pretty well and is only now coming to the end of its life, with slight warping on the swinging door, which means it catches on the frame and the cats sometimes struggle a little to open it. The weatherproofing strip is wearing thin too. But for ten years of hard and daily use, I really can’t complain. The locking mechanism is small, fiddly and not robust, so we fitted a wooden frame on the inside of our door around the flap, and made a wooden door that slides into the frame from the top. We can then lower it like a drawbridge so the cats can’t go out after dusk/dinner.

Looking at the photos it seem iv been sent a different flap to what I ordered . When fitting it the cut out measurements was not accurate and the cut out hole was bigger than needed. My cat got her toe trapped in the flap, it was something iv never seen before , it was terrifying. I could not push the flap out or in the free her as it would of broken her toe, it was proper wedged. so I had to get a knife and saw at the top corner of the flap to free her. Iv had to order again just to have the same size as I have a big hole in my door now. Otherwise I would of order a different one.

The cat flap fitted into my door without any trouble and my small terrier could almost run non-stop through the flap with out any trouble with the magnets closing the flap positively.Very pleased with the Cat mate 4-Way Locking Cat Flap.

I found this product an effective product that is light yet sturdy! The price of this product is also affordable.

Used between house and conservatory where we keep the litter tray. Now we can close the doors and keep the Winter cold at bay and the occasional poo smell!
