PetSafe Microchip Cat Door, Exterior or Interior Pet Door – Multi-User RFID Access Up to 40 Pets, 4-Way Locking, Weatherproof, DIY Easy Install, Hardware Kit; Privacy for Cat Litter Box or Pet Feeder

Works great, just a bit snug.
“Easy” install in our concrete block walls. Neede two tunnel extensions and the adapter kit. The instructions were easy to follow. Having a small jackhammer made the job much easier.Easy to get each cat’s chip to register. Fairly short learning curve for the cats. Even though our cats are well within the size and weight guide the tunnel is a bit snug for two of them.FYI, the locking mechanism is set to keep animals not registered from coming into the house, not in and out. Not a problem as all three cats are indoor outdoor cats.One of our cats is not fond of the click noise when the door unlocks, it took her a good week to use the doors consistently.Overall very happy with the doors!! Have not had any intruders since installed.

Great, just took some getting used to.
I went through a roller coaster of emotions with this item, but the item itself is AMAZING, and does everything it promises.My cat is VERY TIMID, she gets bullied by one of my male cats, so I wanted my bedroom to be a safe spot for her. In order to not isolate her either, I decided to put this door. She was HORRIFIED of it, because of the noise it does when it unlocks. Mind you, we have a catio, where she uses cat doors already, so it was just the noise she didn’t like. For the first week, she didn’t come out my room. Then, she would leave, but not come in, maybe for 2 weeks. Now, she comes in and out as she pleases, and knows she can be safe in her area. I love it, I’m glad I didn’t give up on it, especially since I cut a hole in my bedroom door.

Overall good, with some shortcomings
I installed this product, and then paired the PetSafe key tag successfully. But then I couldn’t get it to actually open with the key tag. After reading the instructions very carefully I learned there’s a motion sensor that activates first, and lights and LED when motion is detected. I assume this motion detector uses much less power than the tag reader, so it’s a two-stage activation for the tag reader to save the batteries. Unfortunately there motion detector never senses movement no matter what I try; the LED never lights.I emailed PetSafe about the problem, and a week later I haven’t received a response.I ordered a second unit, thinking the first was defective. It turns out the second one suffers from the same problem.But this time I tested it before I installed it, and it worked fine! Imagine my surprise to find it suffers the same motion detector problem once it was installed.After some experimentation, I have discovered that both doors work fine… but only when indoors!! Whenever either are installed into the outside door, the sunlight prevents the motion detector from working.I think the motion sensor is actually just a cheap photo diode that only senses differences in light intensity. When I test it with my hand outdoors, I’m not blocking enough of the sunlight in the tunnel so it doesn’t register a change, and therefore never starts the tag sensor. But it seems to work ok for my black cat so far (has only been a couple days and she’s only used it three times), as the cat fills more of the tunnel and blocks more light. I was afraid it wouldn’t work in the dark, but so far it has activated and opened at least once in the dark.I think the product could be greatly improved by using a real motion sensor, and also by locking on both sides (this would require some rework to the electronics and sensors, but it would keep raccoons out better).I looked at many, many similar products, but so far haven’t found any that seem like they would work better.

Quick easy setup, I had other doors that didn’t stop one of the cats from forcing her way in. This one has done the trick.

Enkel att hantera och programmera, kunde ha gjorts smartare för att kunna monteras i vägg, nu skall egentligen den monteras med extra monteringsplatta vilket hade kunnat gjorts annorlunda och gjorts möjlig på det sätt som jag gjorde istället. Monteringsplattan är ett påtvingat tillbehör på grund av en konstruktionsmiss. Men är du inte lite finurlig och händig så måste du köpa monteringsplattan för att montera i vägg.

After we installed this I must say it did take my 1 year old cat a few days to get the just of it but now he uses this with no issues,from outside the door unlocks after chip recognition we can happily leave him alone for the day with no worries. Good value for money
