Overview

This Cat Mate 360 flap uses microchip activation compatible with ISO and AVID chips, letting owners program entry access for up to 30 cats or small dogs while keeping unregistered animals out. It fits doors, walls, and single or multiple glazing panels around 3.38 inches thick.

The 360 model relies on programmable microchip recognition rather than a collar key, so there's nothing extra for the pet to wear. Its polymer frame comes in white with a snap closure and is rated for panel thickness of 3.38 inches, so measuring the door or wall panel before ordering matters more than with a magnetic flap that tolerates a wider range.

  • Microchip activated entry, ISO and AVID compatible
  • Programs up to 30 individual pets
  • Fits 3.38 inch door, wall, or wood panels
  • Snap closure polymer frame in white

Who it's for

Fits households with one cat or several, plus multi-cat homes that want to block a particular animal's access to a room while letting others through, since the 30-pet memory allows selective programming. It also works for small dogs able to fit the flap opening.

Strengths and trade-offs

Drawn from this product's published specifications.

What stands out
  • Reads existing ISO and AVID microchips, no extra collar tag needed
  • Stores up to 30 pet IDs for multi-cat or multi-dog households
  • Works in single or multiple glazed doors, UPVC, walls, or wood
  • Snap closure design in white for door or wall installation
What to check first
  • Panel thickness fit is listed as 3.38 inches, leaving little room for thicker doors
  • No smart home connectivity
  • Sized for cats and only extra small dogs

Performance notes

Because access relies on reading a pet's existing microchip, there's no collar tag to lose or replace, and the unit can store up to 30 chip IDs so multiple pets or households can share one flap while excluding neighborhood cats. The panel thickness spec is listed as both a minimum and maximum of 3.38 inches, which points to a fixed fit rather than a wide adjustable tunnel.
