Ideal Pet Products Replacement Flap for Ruff-Weather Pet Door, Super Large, 15" x 23.5" Flap Size

I’ve had my Ruff Weather (RW) dual flap dog door for 11 years. The door frame itself has performed superbly from an 85lb and a 110lb dog both blasting through it many times a day over the decade plus. However, the weak point of these doors -as you well know if you have one - is that after only a few weeks the flap begins to sag, resulting in a gap that renders your door not so “Ruff Weather.”Over the years I tried a few things to fix a sagging flap, and all failed, so I have had to invest hundreds of dollars in new flaps over this time. Recently I bought a brand new RW door (I put the old one on my shed studio), and I noticed that the Ideal Pet people have tried to address the gap caused by the flap sag by making the brush felt on the sides longer now, so that the felt overlaps the flap instead of just meeting it - too bad they couldn’t have addressed the cause instead of the symptom!Anyway, this time I really applied myself to finding a solution, and I came up with an inexpensive one that works: FlexFix UL Listed Duct Tape Sealer (1.89 in. x 120.3 yd).1. Starting with the long sides, lay out a piece the tape long enough to go all the way from top to bottom of the flap. Lay the flap on the tape so the flap edge is on the center of the tape, then bring the tape up over to the top side of the flap, sandwiching the flap between the piece of tape. It’s important that the tape goes all the way top to bottom because this is what keeps it from sagging.2. Repeat step one with the top of the flap3. Slit the tape a bit where the flap holes are so the pegs can go throughI did this then waited a year to post this, just to make sure the flap didn’t sag. It didn’t! The tape even improved the sag on the old flap a bit.Photo 1 is the gap that never fails to appear on each flap after a few weeks.Photo 2 is a brand new flap with flexfix duct tape on all four sidesPhoto 3 is the taped flap installed (view from inside with inside flap removed)Photo 4 is the taped flap after one year (that green on the bottom of the door itself is painter’s tape. This area is hard to clean, so I put the tape on there and when it gets dirty I just peel it up and put new down)As a bonus for you DIYers, I've included photos of the type of dog door that the Amish around here use. If you are a good trainer, this looks to me like the best fix for high wind areas. Those are self-closing hinges so the door takes a slight bit of effort to open, then snaps closed, so maybe not good for smaller dogs. My dogs were old when I got this shed with the door, one of my dog's is sensitive and they both dislike change, so I opted to replace this door with my old RW door from the house (mentioned earlier).6/17: the photos were out of order and (hopefully) fixed.

Super easy to remove and replace. Instructions included with the flaps. One thing to note: there was another seller offering these for almost twice the price I ended up paying. So look out for that.

This was an easy fix for my broken dog door. The install was quick and the dogs had no problem with the new door. The acrylic is thick and I think it will last a long time. Fits just tight enough to keep the wind out on windy days. If I have to buy a new one I will buy this one again.

This flap was 55% off and cost approx $30.00 for ONE FLAP. Thank goodness I didn’t pay full price. The original price made me believe that it was a set.Delivery took a bit longer but I was kept up to date.I just now installed. Easy!! Piece of cake!!! Took a few seconds. Dog approved. Perfect fit!!! Now let’s see how long it last.

I needed to replace my current one. They are 11 years old and held up great. I couldn't believe the difference, I can look out my doggie door again.

Purchased the original doggy door on here and 3 dobermans running in and out took its toll on the door. Took forever to find one that fit. Happy when I found this one. Super easy install. Done in less than 10 minutes.

Purchased several times online, the last set didn't make it a year. I went ahead and ordered a new set but noticed there was a One Year Warranty on the item. Emailed the company I purchased from and all they needed was a receipt and mailing address. Received the warranty items the following week. Couldn't be happier!

Very easy to install.

I now have to trim the holes to make the last 2 longer so they reach the magnet and at 30 below that's a cold breeze blowing in kinda defeats the purpose of dual flaps 😞 says 23.5 long but isn't if I could stretch to advertised length like first replacement years ago I'd be happy but last 2 I can't make the holes tall enough to seal properly.

Doesn’t keep it’s shape more than 1-2 month’s

we have 2 big dogs over a hundred lbs. each and they have used this door for over a year, even when it was 30 below, this door is strong and easy to install

The metal portion at the bottom warped literally in less than 24 hours. It doesn't even seal now. Not. Impressed. Don't waste your time or money.

This item is as listed. Fit perfectly took less than 3 mins to change both flaps.
