Product Review :

Well worth the extra money, stronger and so much quieter

Not only is this pet door a hundred times stronger than the normal plastic one - the one I have now has been going strong for two years and still in good condition (the normal plastic one I had before it broke within a couple of days of installing), but it is also so much quieter than the plastic ones too, which is really a god-send with two dogs and three cats going in and out at all times of the day and night.

Before I'd installed it I was concerned that the flap would not fall into place properly after a while causing drafts, but the magnetic strip along the bottom of the flap keeps it in line and closed at least as well if not better than a rigid plastic flap. This product may look expensive at first glance, but I am certain that if I'd stayed with the plastic variety I would have spent considerably more in replacement doors in the last two years than this one cost me.
Springer Spaniel loves it

My springer spaniel has been dashing in and out through this door for 4 months now and it is as good as new. I had to wonder initially whether I had bought the correct size (medium) as it did not look that big when fitted (compared to my dog) but after some initial trepidation Daisy got to grips with it and found there is in fact quite a lot of room to spare.

Great Product

Amazing products works much better then the plastic version that we had before.
Would recommend to anyway with dogs.

Product Review :

Undecided - Could be designed better.

I've owned several of these over the years having moved house four times in 12 years.
They work okay, the problem is that they really need a flat door to work correctly, and most doors these days are pannelled, so I've usually spent a fair bit of time with limited wood working skills to get the door suitable.
My problem with this design though is that the screw holes need to be far too close to the main hole for the door - if you slip up, the fitting is shoddy.
We've had the plastic door break a couple of times over the years, and one of our dogs managed to chew the door so badly it needed replacing.
Having cut a hole in the door, I've had to replace it with this classic design, but if I had a new door, I'd be shopping around for a better design.

Doggy door

A bit small for a medium sized labrador despite being a large size. It cracked almost straight away, midway along the the bottom after installation so impossible to return.

Easy to fit

Yes easy to fit in a flat door. In my case a upvc door. I removed the bottom panel for easy working on a bench.
The through door fixing screws are very close to the cutout, so you need to take care when drilling.
But after all of this, the product works.
Our observation though is the product has a life of approx 2 years with one dog and one cat. We are on our 3rd door now. But at least the design is fixed. So we just unbolt the old broken door and fit the new one in a few minutes. No marking out, no more sawing, etc.
