As a pet owner, you make some investments in your pets that you hope are a one-time purchase or commitment, your dog or cat door being one of them. You purchase a pet door in the hopes that it will last as long as you need it to, with the help of occasional maintenance. Hale’s dog doors and cat doors are that kind of investment in your pet, and we take pride in creating products that last.
However, when you consider the normal wear and tear on a dog or cat door, it’s reasonable to assume that at some point, the vinyl flap will need to be replaced. Your cat or dog will enter and leave your home countless times per day, and, over time, that can begin to wear on the material. Not to mention the other elements your pet door endures such as weather and deterring other animals from entering your home.
Please note: These flaps are designed for each model individually and the interior and exterior flaps are different. While they are the same size, the strikes and weather stripping are arranged in different locations to match up with the magnets in the door frame. Please make sure whether you need an interior flap, exterior flap, or both flaps before ordering. See the large graphic on the product images for an illustration of the strike placement to help determine which flap to order.
NOTE: These are not replacement flap kits and do NOT contain magnets and weather-stripping. If you need a complete replacement flap kit with magnets and weather stripping, please click here.
CUSTOM SIZE FLAP ONLY NOT AVAILABLE. Because each of the flaps is handmade, we cannot guarantee the exact placement of the strikes on the flaps when making custom size flaps. Therefore, we do not offer custom size flap only replacements as the strikes on the new flaps may not line up with the existing magnets. For custom size replacement flaps, please order the full replacement flap kit instead.
MEASURING AND INSTALLATION NOTE: As shown in the gallery photos above your replacement flap will have a metal top bar riveted to it for strength and stability. Each flap is hand created and we cannot guarantee that these rivets will be in the exact place as your original rivets. This does not mean you have an incorrect size of flap. DO NOT screw through these rivets during installation as that will weaken the flap and cause it to fail. Simply drill a new screw hole through your flap and the inside of the pet door frame in a new location near the original hole.
If you aren't sure of your Hale Pet Door size, you can measure the pet door frame. This is the outside TIP TO TIP measurement both horizontally and vertically. After measuring, you can find the correct size pet door using the conversion table. After converting your tip to tip measurement to the passage opening, choose the correct size pet door from the dropdown above. (PLEASE NOTE: Neither of these measurements is the actual flap size. We recommend measuring your pet door frame and not your old flap to confirm the size before ordering replacements).
