Set of two (2) Replacement Hinges for the UltraFlex or AirSeal flap style
Hinge Strips are 15 3/4" long and are suitable for Small, Medium or Extra Large flap sizes.
Replaces existing white strip or black strip on flaps with 2 screws or 4 screws per panel.
To determine the correct size door, simply measure the width (A) and height (B) of your pet.
(A) Measure the widest point of your pet's shoulder.
(B) Measure from the top of your pet's back (just behind their head) to the bottom of chest.
Pet door models have different size openings. Just make sure your new pet door's opening is both wider and taller than your pet's measurements to ensure they can comfortably pass through.

You Try It !
Thank You. I requested rubber hinges separating the clear door sections. Received, and installed. However, the challenge of replacing the old ones is not as simple as the instruction implies. You try it. I recommend a tooling change, well placed shutoff slots in the clear molding side walls that will allow a screwdriver to be inserted and pry open the clear halves. The air tight feature of the plastic assembly would stay intact. This would remove the need to work with a razor. My unit was stuck together. The razor plan didn't work. Needed to pry pieces apart with a chisel. Happy to discuss. Also recommend researching a new more durable hinge material.

Hard to replace
We found it difficult to get the new seals on one corner in both pieces. Wished we had just replaced the whole door

Hinges work perfectly, installation a challenge
The hinges and instructions were easy to read as well as removing the flap to begin. Now that’s when this project becomes a bit frustrating. After removing the screws the old hinges wouldn’t slide out. It looks like when my door was assembled at the manufacturer each individual portion was glued together. With time, effort, a butter knife, and a long skinny screwdriver I was eventually able to fully disassemble the existing flap. Cutting the new hinge material to fit was simple as well as re assembling and reinstalling. The dog door is fully repaired and works fantastic. Just be ready in case your door portions are glued together as well.

Extremely Difficult to Install
I rated these so low because they are so difficult to install. It's almost not worth the trouble. Next time my hinges wear out, I would rather purchase a new door.

Works well but can be hard to install
The hinges arrived quickly but was not that easy to install. Instructions were good, however my pet door was installed several years ago so it was very hard to separate the plastic so you can slide the new rubber hinge in. The plastic even cracked in a couple of places but I was able to still use it. The door works great.

Hinge Strips
Received very quickly, was easy to install and worked great

Excellent
The hinge strips were exactly as ordered. Not as easily installed as the directions indicated, but worked out well. I have the medium size door and there is enough to use a second time.

Great option, but hard to install.
It's nice to have the option to replace just the rubber hinges rather than the entire flap. In my case, however, they were very hard to install. The instructions said to gently open the plastic in order to slide in the rubber hinge. The plastic on my flap did not open easily. I had to crack the plastic in a couple of places in order to get it open enough to get the rubber hinge in. It could be that my flap is old and beat up and maybe a newer flap would be easier to install. I'm very happy with the doggy door in general, but the time and effort needed to replace the hinges was frustrating. If I need to replace the hinges again, I'll buy the entire flap rather than just the hinges.
