Sure Petcare SureFlap Microchip Cat Flap Connect, DualScan Technology, Mobile App Compatible, Install in Doors, Windows and Walls, White, Hub and 4 x AA Batteries Required, Not Included

This initially lasted around 5 years before requiring replacement. Other than that, with good quality batteries it lasts a few months at a time. Works flawlessly and only lets in / out our cats. Need to keep it clean to be working well, but noting out of the ordinary or overboard. Easy to pair cats and to the hub. Connects well with the app. Good support from manufacturer if needed

Crisis, After 7 years, her old catflap stopped working. (I knew something wasn't right for months and chose to ignore it) So emergency order put in for this flap. It arrived a few hours later, and I was able to quickly remove the old one and get this installed. The old flap was an older version of the same catflap, just without the connect functionality. Swapping out the catflap couldn't have been much easier, remove a couple of covers, remove the screws, then put the new one in place and do up the screws. Add batteries, press the button to add my cat to the flap and hey presto, it's up, running and configured. She's once again happy, and able to come and go as she pleases, and I'm happy that it's going to stay secure when she's not activating it. Combining this with a set of good quality lithium AA rechargeable batteries and this should serve our needs for the next 7 years, hopefully longer. The addition of the connect functionality looks like a fascinating upgrade, I like that the footprint of the flap has not changed from the older models, so it did not require any further modifications to my door. It's also great that my cat also now has a brand new crystal clear door to look out of before we goes through. The old one, showed signs of wear, but hey it was 7 years old. I feel that whilst the cat flap isn't the cheapest, the quality more than makes up for it, with the promise of 7 years expected life, it will pay for itself in the peace of mind that I have knowing that my cat has her own personal entrance, that cannot be used by anything else.

We have 3 cats and wouldn't be without this now. The cats like it as well as they know other cats cant visit so they don't get stressed. One of my cats would spray when we got unwanted visits from our cat neighbours, so once this was installed, the spraying stopped. Its very easy to put in and set up. Also we have just moved house and I thought I would have to go through the set up process again as it had been switched off and new Internet but honestly couldn't have been easier.through the app. Was literally done in 5 minutes.

Brilliant cat flap, an investment. I use it in conjunction with the sure cat portal and it’s excellent. Sturdy when in and easy to activate.

The cat flap cannot be used without a Hub which has to be bought separately. It is a very complicated cat flap I want something easy to use and install.

Had to purchase this cat flap as a replacement for a faulty one (Not purchased from this seller!) Not only is it fully working but was cheaper than my faulty one :) One happy man today with cats who can get in and out - yay

This is a very good catflap but there is a but. I found our ancient, deaf cat outside and wondered how she’d got out as I had programmed the catflap to not allow her to go out. Turned out another cat had gone out and the flap hadn’t closed fully … elderly cat couldn’t believe her luck. I looked at the sensors on the top of the tunnel from the outside and there was a small amount of fur which I removed. I think that was the problem. Moral of story - you have to keep the sensors clean!

Really well made, very intuitive, and can integrate into Home Assistant (through the cloud). Quiet during operation, cats find it easy to use, and keeps out unwelcome visitors. Had to replace a couple now (they've done 5 years of hard service) and found the warranty services to be very good!

At first it wasn't working very reliably on my metal door, I went back and made the opening an extra 1/2" larger, leaving just two metal tabs of the door to anchor the trim. I only did this on the outside/exit side of the door, didnt touch the inside and its touching the frame of the sureflap and it works 100% of the time. Try this before dropping another $20 on the metal door frame, I really only think you need that for glass. Didnt cut any extra of the foam core of the door either so it stayed snug, used expanding foam insulation spray before putting the trim on. Make sure you use the expanding foam for vinyl windows, the regular foam will put pressure on the sureflap as it dries and could cause the flap to not flap because its being squeezed. That regular construction foam will bend window and door frames as it dries and your door wont close. At first we used some tape to hold the flap open so they would just use the hole for a while and the sure flap would click and they would freak out at first. Then we let the door down and used some tape stuck to the door so when they would walk up we would lift the door from the inside and then let it down on them so they could get used to it on their back as they slid through. Really only did that for one cat, the other just started following the first one. Watching them go through from the back is amusing, the fat cat looks like a seal with its legs both sticking straight out as she pulls herself through with her front paws. I was very surprised how fast they got used to it. Good deal and very functional, cant believe how well the chip reader works. Were still on first set of batteries, with two cats using the door 20+ times a day after 3 months.

Die Klappe macht genau das, was sie soll. Sie ist einfach zu bedienen. Der Einbau ist einfach. Und: sie funktioniert einwandfrei.

Mes deux chats se sont très vite habitués à entrer et sortir, le bruit de l’ouverture et fermeture n’est vraiment si bruyant que ça . Un des deux a trouvé le moyen de contourner la programmation de la fermeture en tirant la porte vers lui mais le service après-vente m’a vite envoyé une nouvelle porte et je n’ai plus aucun problème ! Pas besoin d’acheter de pendantifs à puce pour déclencher le système , la puce vétérinaire fonctionne très bien . Je recommande !

Muy útil. Pero la puerta no es nada silenciosa

Facile a installe, un peu gros et bruyant . Apprentissage à prévoir Pour chat sans surplus de poids ; )
