Measurement and marking
Measure the belly height of your cat. This is usually 100 mm to 150 mm (Fig. 1).
Mark this measurement on the outside of your door and draw a straight
horizontal line 169 mm (Fig. 2).
Usually this line will be the bottom of the hole you cut in your door
– the frame of the cat flap will be slightly lower. With Magnetic Cat
Flaps it is important that the cat is able to approach the cat flap without
obstacle. There should be a level area in front of the cat flap outside
which is sufficient for the cat to stand with all four paws on the
same level.
