Black Upvc Doors With Catflaps

What is the best cat flap for a uPVC Door?

Determining the best cat flap for a uPVC door is highly dependent on your requirements. To help you decide, you should consider if you need:

• A cat flap or pet door: From an average cat to a medium dog
• Manual or microchip: Based on budget and requirements

Do you need a cat flap or pet door?

What’s the difference: Cat flaps are for average-sized cats, while pet doors are designed for dogs and larger cats.

Description: While cat flaps are designed for cats, some larger breeds may not fit comfortably through them; in this case, a pet door for a small dog can cater to a larger-sized cat. We provide manual and microchip options for cat flaps and pet doors for small dogs, while medium pet doors are only available as a manual option.

A manual cat flap or pet door

Why choose manual: For basic operation, and cheaper than microchip options.

Description: Our manual cat flaps and pet doors cost less than microchip counterparts, and do not rely on batteries to power them. Manual cat flaps and small dog pet doors have 4-way locking functionality – open (both in & out), closed, in-only or out-only. Medium dog pet doors only offer 2-way locking – open or closed.

What a microchip cat flap or pet door offers

How they work: Recognises your pet’s microchip to keep out other cats or dogs.

Description: Costing more than manual models, our SureFlap microchip cat flaps and pet doors can scan your pet’s microchip, allowing only them to access your home and keep unwanted cats or dogs out. DualScan cat flaps allow you to set separate permissions for different pets, allowing you to quarantine one cat while letting others freely enter and exit. Finally, our Connect cat flaps and pet doors can be operated and monitored remotely with your smart phone.

In conclusion, the best cat flap for a uPVC Door is dependent on various factors – size is the most important factor for everyday pet use; beyond that, the best options include manual for budget, or microchip for unique access by your pets, with DualScan further allowing separate consents for your pets, and Connect being a great choice for remote control and monitoring.
