Microchip Cat Flap Mounting Adaptor

Just wanted to reassure those who need to buy this because they are installing on a metal door that this adapter plate worked for me. I tried the SureFlap door on it’s own after it fit in the old cat door flap I had cut, but the microchip reader would not work with the metal so close. I had to use a jigsaw to cut the existing hole a bit higher (the adapter plates are quite large and the bottom part was longer than the door frame), but once I readjusted, the chip reader worked perfectly. My cats were rescues and both have older chips that vary in digit length; this cat door worked well for both of them. The metal door I have is hollow and have consists of thin metal on each side, with spray foam filler on the inside.

I ordered this cat door thinking it would be an easy swap with my existing one. Long story short, we ended up getting a whole new door because of the fit of this door. After we went to the expense of a new door and installed this cat door....WE LOVE IT!!! It works like a charm. It only took my cat two days or so to get the hang of it. Whereas he could bust through the old door easily, this one required him to stick his head in pretty far just to unlock it. But once we trained him using treats, he figured it out. I recommend this. We had intruder cats coming inside and hopefully the problem is now solved!!!!

I have two Siamese both of whom have very independent natures (surprise!) They used to sleep in a cage - same cage that they were used to at the Rescue place as kittens. After a while the female would not go in until we had indulged in 45 minutes of hide & seek. Then the other (The male)decided to do the same, but didn't want to be caged after it. The cage went and I had to get out of bed at 3:00am to let them out. A cat flap was the answer and the Sure Flap the obvious answer, being that it operates with the rfid chip. It is a beautifully designed and made unit and took me 3/4 days to fit through a wall - no doors available. However,the cats are now 18 months old and very suspicious and after three weeks I still haven't managed to persuade them to try it. Whether it is the flashing red light or the size of the opening I don't know, but we soldier on. I will write again if/when I manage to persuade them that my night's sleep is more important than their prima donna attitude. I would imagine that fitting and trying the Sure Flap when they are younger and more susceptible to suggestion would be the best way to go. I am sure that Pickle (the male) is almost offended that I have the temerity to think that his physique could possible fit through that opening. Even with me holding him on the outside and my wife on the inside making a noise like a bowl of cream was no inducement. Stupid cat! Incidentally, the adaptor plates come two to a box, which I don't think is mentioned. I wanted two and so ordered, but I got two boxes each containing two plates, so now I have two extra. Not cheap.

Works as advertized, my cats are using it well. Only thing, I don't think suggestion on mounting height from floor level was included. It's a small door, so I think putting the bottom of the door at the height of the cat's belly works best. I was installing into a wall, with a 8 inch tunnel passage. I'd used another cat flap on the exterior which was larger, so I had to block off part of that hole in order to install this on the inside surface. I used the mounting adaptor (for glass and wall installation) which worked well.

Love this cat door. It has completely eliminated the problem of unwanted cats coming into the house. Only my two microchipped cats can come into the house. I had been struggling with cat urine odor because my cats were spraying in response to intruder cats. That problem is solved by having the Cat Flap. Customer Service is outstanding! I had an issue (caused by me) My questions were immediately answered. It is worth the cost.

Its easy to install but I also used the frame adapter which is sold separately. You dont need the adapter but it looks nicer. I bought two and attached them to 112 qt totes (homz 18.25h x 16inw x 27.75d) to create food capsules for my cats. One of our cats is on a prescription diet and has to eat z/d hills diet. The other we feed regular cat food. We also still wanted to be able to use our automatic feeders, so this setup worked perfectly. However, it is cheaper to buy from their website directly. They mark up the prices on amazon.

I purchased this, just in case I needed it when converting my old cat door to the new SureFlap. It wasn't necessary. I am glad I purchased it. Cleaning the cat door area is quick and easy now. It gives a nice finished look to the door.

We ordered the SureFlap Cat Flap Mounting Adapter to install with the SureFlap Dual Scan Microchip Cat Door. We read in other reviews that this adapter helps the Dual Scan cat door work on metal doors, but it didn't help in our case. The cats microchip was still too far from the scanner to work. We ordered the SureFlap RFID Collar Tags and finally the door opens. I would recommend buying the tags to use with any SureFlap product. The microchip concept is nice, but not reliable enough.

Buen producto

Yes indeed without it the flap was'nt working on my iron front door, now it's ok

Finalmente il gatto è indipendente nell'entrare ed uscire. Facile il montaggio e l'abbinamento con microchip. Si potrebbero fare però diverse misure per gatti extra large

schnelle Lieferung, gute Qualität, würde perfekt passen. Aber Vorsicht; Dieser Montageadapter ist nur für eine Glastür gedacht. Auf Holz würde nur Katzenklappe ausreichen. Ich habe falsch bestellt aber ohne Probleme wieder zurückgegeben.
