Cat Mate Brown 4 Way Locking Cat Flap - 309B
Product Description
Cat Mate 309B Brown 4-Way Locking Cat Flap – Slimline Design
The Cat Mate 309B Brown 4-Way Locking Cat Flap is a slimline cat door designed for thin timber doors, uPVC panels, screens and lightweight panels up to 13mm (½") thick.
Finished in an attractive brown colour, the Cat Mate 309B is particularly suitable for timber, woodgrain and darker door finishes. Its 4-way locking system gives you full control over when your cat can enter or leave.
Designed for Thin Doors & Panels
The Cat Mate 309B has a shallow self-lining section designed for installations up to approximately 13mm (½ inch) thick.
This makes it ideal for suitable applications such as:
- Thin timber doors
- uPVC door panels
- Internal doors
- Garden shed doors
- Suitable screens
- Lightweight panels
The slim profile provides a neat installation without the additional depth associated with cat flaps designed for thicker doors or walls.
4-Way Locking Cat Flap
The Cat Mate 309B gives you four access settings, allowing you to control your cat's movements throughout the day.
- In & Out – allows your cat to enter and leave freely
- In Only – allows your cat to enter but prevents them going back outside
- Out Only – allows your cat to leave but prevents re-entry
- Fully Locked – prevents access in either direction
This makes the 309B useful for keeping your cat indoors overnight while still allowing unrestricted access during the day.
Brown Cat Flap for Timber & Woodgrain Doors
The brown frame complements many timber, mahogany, rosewood and brown woodgrain-style doors and panels.
The transparent flap allows your cat to see through the opening and helps the cat flap maintain a discreet appearance once installed.
Slimline Self-Lining Design
The shallow self-lining construction makes the Cat Mate 309B particularly useful for thin panel installations where a deeper tunnel would be unnecessary or unsuitable.
If your door or panel is thicker than approximately 13mm, a Cat Mate model with a deeper self-lining section should be considered instead.
