What to Compare Before Buying
- Cat size: This flap is aimed at small to average-sized cats, so check the opening size against your cat’s build.
- Panel or wall opening: Compare the stated cut-out size with the space you can provide for fitting.
- Installation surface: It is intended for glazing, UPVC, metal, wood and walls, so make sure your planned location matches one of those surfaces.
- Locking control: The 4-way mechanism gives four operating settings, so choose it if that level of control suits your household routine.
- Panel depth: The self-lining depth is up to 50 mm, which is worth checking against the thickness of the installation point.
What Else You May Need
For fitting, you may also need the correct tools and any installation parts required for your chosen surface or glazing arrangement.
Before You Decide
Confirm the flap opening, cut-out size and self-lining depth against the space where it will be fitted. Also check that the chosen location is suitable for the intended surface type, and that the size suits your cat before you choose an offer.
