Overview

This Decormax pet door installs through a wall with a steel frame and telescoping tunnel, sized for walls between 4 and 8 inches thick. The small size model holds up to 22 lbs and uses double magnetic flaps with two sliding lock panels to control access.

The listing data mixes cat and dog fields inconsistently, calling it a cat door in the title while also listing a small dog breed size and dog target audience in the specs, but the steel frame, wall-thickness range and 22 lb capacity describe a door sized for cats or small dogs. The telescoping tunnel is what lets it adjust across that 4 to 8 inch range.

  • Steel frame, telescoping tunnel
  • 4-8 inch wall thickness range
  • 22 lb weight capacity
  • Double magnetic flaps

Who it's for

Fits owners installing a permanent wall-through door for a cat or small dog under 22 lbs, in a wall between 4 and 8 inches thick. Not suitable for walls outside that thickness range or pets over the weight limit.
