Wood Fitting Cat Doors

Wood Fitting Cat Doors

For a timber door, a laundry wall or a garage panel, this is the straightforward route: a Catwalk® wood fitting cat door that screws directly into the timber — a template, a jigsaw cut and a screwdriver, and your cat has their own entrance by dinner time.

All models share the proven 155 × 170 mm flap (width × height) that suits cats of every size, in white or brown. The slimline suits standard doors from 11 to 30 mm thick; the tunnel version lines openings up to 52 mm, which covers thick solid doors and walls. And if unwanted feline visitors are the problem, the wood fitting multi-magnetic cat door installs the same way but opens only for your cat’s collar magnet.

Glass door instead of timber? That’s the glass fitting cat door range. Not sure your cat fits? Our cat door sizing guide covers the three measurements to take. Unsure between glass and timber, or between slimline and tunnel? The Find Your Fit tool asks a handful of questions and points you at the exact model.

Wood Fitting Questions, Answered

How hard is it to install a cat door in a wooden door?
One of the easier DIY jobs there is: mark the opening with the supplied template, cut with a jigsaw, screw the two halves together through the door. Full instructions come in the box and as a download on each product page.
What height should the cat door sit at?
The flap’s bottom edge should sit roughly level with your cat’s belly — usually 100–150 mm off the floor. Cats step through rather than jump, so lower is better than higher. This is the most common installation mistake, and our cat door sizing guide covers it in detail.
Slimline or tunnel — which do I need?
Measure the door’s thickness. Between 11 and 30 mm, the slimline is the cleaner fit; from 30 up to 52 mm — thick doors, walls — the tunnel version lines the whole passage so there are no raw edges.
Can it go through a wall?
Yes — the tunnel models line openings up to 52 mm deep, which suits many wall installations. For thicker cavity walls, ask us via the contact page before ordering and we’ll advise on the opening.
Is one flap size really right for all cats?
The 155 × 170 mm flap (width × height) suits the overwhelming majority of cats, large ones included — cats compress and step through in a way dogs don’t. For a truly giant breed, consider the Maxi pet door in the glass fitting range with its 187 × 203 mm flap.
White or brown — does it matter?
Purely cosmetic — same door, same flap, same 4-way lock. White sits well on painted doors; brown disappears nicely into stained or dark timber. Both are UV-stabilised for Australian conditions.
