Cat & Dog Flaps

Cat Flaps & Dog Flaps for uPVC Doors

Want your cat or dog to come and go without you opening the door? A cat flap or dog flap fitted in the door gives your pet their own way in and out, and lockable models let you keep them in at night.

We stock cat flaps from Staywell and PetSafe, including manual locking cat flaps in white and brown, and dog flaps from Staywell and Dog Mate for small to larger dogs. They can be fitted in uPVC, wooden and composite doors.

Choosing the Right Pet Flap

Measure your pet

Measure your pet's height from the top of the shoulders to the bottom of the chest, and the width at the widest point. The flap opening should be larger than both.

Check the door

Measure the thickness of the door panel where the flap will go and compare it with the range on the listing.

Locking options

Manual locking flaps let you choose in only, out only, open or locked. Check the listing for the options on each model.

Colour

Choose white or brown to match your door.

Cat Flap & Dog Flap Buying Guide

Cat Flaps for uPVC Doors

On a uPVC door the flap is usually fitted through the solid lower panel. If the bottom of your door is glass, the flap can't be cut into it; a glazier will need to supply a glass unit with a hole for the flap.

Dog Flaps for uPVC Doors

Dog flaps need a bigger opening, so measure your dog carefully and check the panel is big enough for the flap and its frame. A dog flap that is too small will be uncomfortable for your dog to use.

Where to Fit the Flap

Fit the flap at a height your pet can step through comfortably. The bottom of the opening should be roughly level with the underside of your pet's chest.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I fit a cat flap in a uPVC door?

Yes. Cat flaps are commonly fitted into the solid panel of a uPVC door. Check the panel thickness against the listing before you order.

Can I fit a cat flap in a glass door?

Not into existing glass. You would need a new glass unit made with a hole for the flap.

What size dog flap do I need?

Measure your dog's shoulder height and width and choose a flap with an opening larger than both. Check the opening size on each listing.

Do pet flaps let draughts in?

Pet flaps have a closing flap to keep out draughts and rain. Check the listing for the features of each model.
