I see the footprint is 7.5x 4.5 feet but does that include the extension w/the door flap? If it adds length, how much?

Think the floor flap extends about 3' and is not included in the footprint. As you can see from the photos, it's trapezoidal in shape.

The door flap is additional coverage. The inside measures 7.5 X 4.5., when the door flap is closed.

7.5 inches (1st) and 3.5 inches (2nd). Add ~ .5 inches to each if including the 'hinges' at the end of each extension.

It comes with extensions. I don't know for sure how wide it makes the gate when both are used, but I would estimate 42-48 inches.

Yes, it came with an extension (standard) but I can't recall how long it was. Very quiet and well made, getting another one for the bedroom I like it so much.

it is 9 inches wide and 11 inches high. you need about 14 in. hgt. and 11 in. wde to install. flap is rigid, it is a bit loud. ws have three dogs and they are in and out all the time. biggest is about 50 lbs, and goes right through, no prob. like this door as it seals tight every time. It will be a bit harder to install because of rigid. be sure your holes are square and level then its easy. hope this helps.

The actual insert is approx 15 1/2 inches and the flap is 11 inches wide. Please note that I have had multiple problems with the flap. I have replaced multiple flaps in the past 7 months. We have learned to put them back together and reinforce them with glue to make them last. I have been incontact with the company and they replaced one flap, but deny that they have a proble with their products durability. Take this into consideration. My last dog door was a pet safe model that lasted 8 years and I only replaced 4 flaps in 8 years. I had already exceeded that number of replacement/repairs to the ideal pet door in only 6 months.

I am assuming if your door is 8' wide and 7 ' high then, no you do not need extension. You will need extension only if your door is taller than 7'.

Hi Robert, I think it was 7 foot long. I know I had to cut it to fit my 6' 6" door. It was a few months back and I didnt save the piece I cut off but it was a good 4 to 6 inches I cut off. Hope this helps.

I am associated with the company. Because of the way the DoubleMag flap system works, there is a slightly smaller opening for the pet coming back into the house than there is going out of the house. The 13'' wide x 18'' high value is for the going out direction. Coming back in, the "flap seal" component seals 1'' on the bottom and two sides, which results in an 11'' x 17'' opening. We recommend that people base their sizing off of the smaller of the two values.

Details say for up to 40.5 inches, but extensions can be added. I do like the gate. Opens easily both ways and closes easily with the latch.

thickness is no problem - 8' is too big a span - I think it only goes about 7'. My door is 6'7" and it was about maxed. Maybe they make longer elastics etc for the extra length but the regular unit doesn't span 8'.

That's the size of the door,not the overall size.It's not a flap,it's a door,much better.This is the largest durable and reliable Cat Door I know of.My fiance has one that two cats go in and out frequently and it's over 10 years old-zero problems.Same company ,same materials,same quality as the one I recently bought.

Well mine is assembled and has a footprint of 34" by 33" and about 40" high. Perhaps those numbers are the numbers as shipped in the box. Otherwise I don't get the 7 inches part.

It comes with 2 extra extender arms which opens the area up to a dimension of 8" x 12 1/4". Allow for some loss on the narrow side due to the angle of the arms that hold the unit secure(thus the 7" max spec).

Yes, door is on the 8ft side, as shown in pictures. It is expandable in 2 ft sections, I discovered.This seemed to be the best choice for us in southern Florida, as termites are a major concern.Of course, so are storms, but we set the 4x4s 2 ft deep into concrete, and placed the whole thingin a corner of the yard surrounded by 6ft fences. It will take a big storm to damage, we HOPE... :)
