We ordered the replacement flap kit and it was too difficult to install
We ordered the replacement flap kit and had such a difficult time replacing the magnets and weatherstripping. The existing installed weatherstripping was very tight and required channel locks to remove. Not a problem. The inserted surfaces on the weatherstripping were smooth. The new weatherstripping was even wider with "new and improved" ribs added. It was impossible to insert them no matter how hard we hit it with a mallet (per tech support). We ended up grinding off the ribs in order to install them. The whole install was so disappointing. We have used Hale pet doors for 22 years and have raved about them. Not any more. I dread replacing the next flap.

We do apologize for any issues you may have had trying to install your new weatherstripping. If you can give us a call we can replace your entire pet door at no cost to you
