Why Does the Flap on My Super Tough Pet Door Keep Breaking?

Modified on Mon, 18 Aug at 1:08 PM

If your Super Tough flap is breaking, it’s usually due to one of these common reasons:


  1. Installed Too Low

    • If the door is set too low, the flap can drag or overextend, putting extra stress on the hinge.

  2. Heavy Use

    • Frequent or forceful use can cause strain, especially around the hinge area.

  3. Wear and Tear

    • Over time, flaps naturally weaken from daily use and exposure to weather.

  4. Incorrect Handling

    • Forcing or bending the flap during installation or removal can cause cracks.

What You Can Do

  • Make sure the door is installed at the right height for your pet.

  • Inspect the flap regularly and replace it if you notice cracks or stiffness.

  • Follow the installation guide carefully when fitting or replacing a flap.
