Choosing the Right Flap Type for Your Pet Door

Posted by moorepet.com team on Oct 14th 2020

Choosing the Right Flap Type for Your Pet Door

No two houses are completely alike even if they’re made to the same specifications. Perhaps more importantly, no two pets are ever alike at all. That means one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to pet doors.

Choosing the right flap-type for your door will help to ensure that your pet can gain access to the great outdoors whenever they’d like.

Styles of Pet Door Flaps on the Market

Engineers working for pet supply companies have done their best to come up with a wide variety of different options for pet owners who want something safe and practical for their animals. Check out these options and you should get a better idea of what might work best in your home.

Custom Size MaxSeal Mount

Pet owners who need to fit an existing door opening or want to size their pet flap to a very specific set of specifications can always opt for one of these door mounts. They’ve become particularly attractive for those who have unusually shaped doors, but they’re also an ideal option for those who take care of dogs that are dealing with mobility issues. Each of these flaps is impact tested down to around -20°F, so they should work in even the coolest of environments.

Single Vs Dual Flap

Depending on the replacement flap you are looking for you will want to look into single and dual flaps in order to decide what option is best for your current pet door.

A single flap is appropriate for those who want lighter coverage while the dual flap is ideal for those who wish to have more obstacles for air not to escape or to prevent external insects, debris, etc from coming in.

Eventually, you may need to consider installing a replacement flap for a pet door that you already have situated in your home. You’ll want to think about these segmented DraftStopper models, which include three individual polycarbonate panels. Each of them includes a separate air chamber, which helps to provide an excellent degree of insulation. They’re connected by a rubber gasket, so you can be sure that they’ll always stay flexible over the lifetime of the product itself. They’re a good choice for anyone who feels that some wind has been getting into their home by way of a pet door.

Giant Breed Patio Pet Door

Owners of large dogs often run into size-related problems when putting in a pet door. If this sounds familiar, then take a few moments to measure your existing sliding door installation. A giant breed patio insert should work well with any sliding door system that’s anywhere from 70-99 inches tall, which means that a majority of patio areas could be easily rendered accessible to even larger breed dogs.
