SureFlap door with microchip for cats

The SureFlap cat door is a battery-operated door with a microchip that only allows your cat to enter! No need to use a collar to enter, you can set the door for up to 32 cats. You can use it using the tag on the collar, or by using the microchip that the vet applies to the cat. However, if your pet is not or cannot be microchipped then choose the SureFlap collar tag.

The SureFlap Cat Door differs from the SureFlap Dual Scan cat door in that it has only one scan, meaning that any cat can leave the house, but only cats with a chip can get in.

How does the microchip work?

• The animal is microchipped by a veterinarian. The chip is implanted into the animal's shoulder and, together with the animal's name and address, registered in the animal registry. A doctor equipped with a scanner can then read the number of the implanted chip and identify the owner of the animal. 
• At the touch of a button, the SureFlap door stores your dog's identification number. The door will only open for pets that have the programmed chip activated. This prevents other unwanted visitors from entering! 
• The sensor that is used to read your dog's chip is located inside the tunnel - it allows the chip to be detected even at a greater distance, e.g. if the dog's chip has moved. The door opens in a fraction of a second and locks automatically about 1 second after your dog passes through the door. The SureFlap door has a manual "classic" 4-position lock that disables the chip lock if activated.
• You can check the compatibility of your pet's microchip simply here at the bottom of the page.

SureFlap cat door setup

• In which door can I install the SureFlap dog door?

• The SureFlap dog door can be easily installed in all types of doors. If you install them in a glass door, you must purchase an additional extension. This extension can also be used if you have a larger hole left in the door from a previous door. It is also possible to fit the door into a double-glazed door. Precise installation instructions are included in the manual you receive with the door.
• For installation in doors with metal plates or a metal core, the installation instructions (instructions included in the package) should be read carefully, as the metal may affect the sensor's ability to detect the chip. If installed correctly, there is no limitation. 
• The required opening size for installation is W 16.5 cm x H 17.1 cm. The size of the flap is H 12 cm and W 14,2 cm. Overall the door measures 21 x 21 cm.  The depth of the tunnel is 7 cm. The optimum opening size for installation in glass is 21 cm, but the door can be installed up to 26 cm in diameter.
