Overview
A microchip-activated cat door bundled with SureFlap's Connect hub, with a flap opening of 5 5/8 by 4 3/4 inches and a magnetic closure. It reads a cat's existing microchip to control access, fitting doors or walls up to about 25 centimeters thick.
The Connect with Hub bundle adds app-based monitoring on top of the base microchip door, since the hub is what links the flap to a home network for remote status checks. Because entry relies on reading a microchip already implanted in the cat, it will not work for a cat without one, and the frame is plastic rather than a heavier-duty material. The white plastic housing and magnetic closure keep the flap sealed against drafts when not in use.
- Flap opening 5 5/8 x 4 3/4 inches
- Reads cat's existing microchip
- Bundled with SureFlap Connect Hub
- Fits up to 25 cm wall/door thickness
Who it's for
Owners who want to keep other cats or animals out while letting their own microchipped cat through will get the most from this, especially paired with the hub for activity tracking. Owners without a microchipped cat, or without interest in app-connected monitoring, would be paying for hub features they cannot use.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Reads existing microchip, no extra collar tag needed
- Magnetic closure seals flap when idle
- Hub bundle adds remote activity monitoring
- Only works for cats already microchipped
- Plastic frame, not a heavy-duty material
- Fits walls or doors up to about 25 cm thick only
Performance notes
Access control works by scanning the microchip already in the cat as it approaches the flap, rather than a separate collar tag, and the magnetic closure holds the flap shut between uses. The Connect hub extends this by linking the door to the home network so entries can be checked remotely, which is the added function over a standalone SureFlap model.

Common buyer questions answered straight from the product spec data - no fluff, no "it depends".

How thick a wall or door will this fit?
