Cat Mate 4 Way Glass Fitting Cat Flap

Great product, easy to lock and looks good too. Be aware I had to have a new glass door panel as they cut it before fitting the cat flap, they couldn’t cut the hole in the existing glass door. Good job the cat flap itself isn’t expensive.

Grate product to fit on a glazed door, has all the options needed to keep the cats happy, safe and under control

I had this fitted into a double glazed unit on my conservatory door. The glass fitter was impressed with how well it worked and seemed to think it was well designed. It took some patience and practice for my cat to get the hang of it. The magnet to keep it closed against draughts means it needs a fairly firm push for Troy to open it. The flap has kept out the autumn storms successfully. I haven't tried locking it to keep Troy in, so can't comment on whether he could break it open if he wanted. I started by fixing it wide open with string sellotaped to the flap and tied to the door handle. He could come and go freely through the hole and got used to the idea of going through so he could play outside. After a week, I cut some light, clear film into strips and taped them above the hole, so he had to brush through them to pass through. It got him used to the sensation of touch and making a (very minor) effort to get though. Soom after, I fixed the flap open at less of an angle, so he had to start pushing against it a little. It was summer, so I could leave the flap open OK, and Troy was keen to get outside. After a month or so of gradual adjustments, he was using the flap in the normal way, though if he saw me inside and wanted to come in, he would pretend it was too hard to open, and try to convince me to open the door for him.After nearly 6 months, it's still lovely to hear the flap thump and to know that Troy can entertain himself in my little enclosed garden whenever he wants, no matter that time of night it is.

One of our cats uses it with ease. The other two have not figured out they need to push to disconnect the magnet. Anyone know if the magnet can be temporarily removed until they get used to going through the flap? Thanks

Most cats regard the cat flap with contempt and disdain. It's the tradesmen's entrance of the feline world. Their preference is for us to hold the front door open while they deliberate whether to stay in or go out. If it's IN, you'll be expected to show your gratitude for the pleasure of their company with a treat; if it's OUT, then the chances are he or she will be howling to be let back in within two minutes and again expect a treat. Either way, your cats is in a win-win situation.However, the Rosewood 4-way Glass Fitting Catmat Door let's you show your cat who's boss (who am I kidding?). It's got a 4-way locking system - ideal for keeping out the neighbourhood cat and keeping yours safe at night - which is brilliant.Easy to install but word of caution: you need to have a circular hole professionally cut into the glass; also best installed with two people either side of the door (just one not two each side!) to position the screws as they need to be carefully aligned. Husband and I managed it and it's slightly out of kilter but the cats don't mind.PS: I hadn't hear of Rosewood before, but the cat flap I bought was an exact replacement for my CatMate that had lasted 10 years. The In/Out switches worked differently but not a problem.Great product, easy to fit, terrific value and amazing delivery service yet again from Amazon. And so say Oscar, Samantha, Muffin, Pipsqueak and Wilfred.

Works a treat

Very easy for my cat,

Easy to fit. Not intrusive in the door glass and not too noticeable. 4 way lock function is easy and effective. No noticeable draft through it. Cat uses it with no issues. Not too noisy when cat comes and goes. Good value for money.

Cette chatiere semble solide, installée dans une fenêtre pour laisser ma chatte libre.J'ai du faire changer la vitre pour le percement et faire refaire le mastic, cout 138€.)

Al mio gatto è cambiata la vita da quando ho messo le gattaiole alle porte-finestra che danno sui terrazzi. Tra l'altro queste si stanno dimostrando molto robuste e funzionali e pure gradevoli esteticamente (per quanto possa esserlo una gattaiola, intendo). Se me ne dovessero servire altre, le acquisterei nuovamente.

Cette chatière est vraiment très facile à installer et bien résistante

De início pensei que o produto seria pequeno...Já está montado no portão da garagem e os gatinhos estão habituar-se.NÃO O DEVOLVO!

Der Magnet funktioniert gut und die Klappe ist auch dichter im Vergleich zu einer anderen Klappe die ich habe .
