Installation in:
Walls
DIY installation may involve the use of power tools or cut glass. Safety equipment (gloves, eye
protection, etc.) should be used and if in doubt consult a professional to carry out the installation.
When you are making holes through the wall of your property please consult a qualified builder.
Note: When planning the installation of a SureFlap Microchip Pet Door in a wall, remember that you
may need to remove the pet door if you move house or upgrade to a newer model. With this in mind, do
not glue the main assembly of the unit to the wall, as removing it will be difficult and could damage the
surface of your wall.
For installation of the SureFlap Microchip Pet Door in a wall, we recommend that you use Pet Door Tunnel
Extenders, which can be purchased through www.sureflap.com.
Choose your mounting position on the wall ensuring that your pet will have easy access through the pet door
in both directions.

Tools you will need:
All Weather Tape
All Weather Sealant
Blu Tack
Masonary Drill
Masking Tape
Measure the height of your pet's stomach from the floor when your
1
pet is standing. This height is the level at which the bottom of the hole
should be cut through the wall. Make a mark on the wall at this height.
Note: If there is a large drop on the outside of the house you will need
to place a step outside for your pet to access the tunnel.
Take the external frame as you will need to use this as a template
2
to mark the hole in the wall. Firstly, make a small pencil mark at the
bottom of the external frame in the centre.

- Page 2 Put a piece of Blu Tack or similar low tack putty on the four corners of the frame. Stick the external frame to the wall on the inside of the house, lining up the pencil mark and bottom of the frame with the mark you have made on the wall.
- Page 3 It is important not to make the hole too large or you will not be able to screw the pet door to the wall . Once you have made the hole on the inside of the house, you can move to cutting the hole on the outside of the house.
- Page 4 There are four screw mounting positions for the pet door. Mark on the wall at the four positions using a pencil or pen. Do not drill through the hole as this will get debris and dirt in the locking mechanism of the pet door. Remove the pet poor and tunnel extenders from the hole in the wall and away from the area while you drill the four holes in the wall.
- Page 5 Remove the frame and drill the four holes for the screws. Replace the external frame and screw in position. Insert the screw caps. Use a silicone sealant around the joint between the tunnel extenders and the external frame and around the top and two side of the frame where it meets the wall.
