Install a cat door

$100

Northcote VIC 3070, Australia

30th Jun 2026

I recently brought my cat to live with me in a rental share house. He needs to be able to come and go from my room at night, but I don't want to sleep with my bedroom door open. I have purchased a second-hand door, and a cat flap. The new door is exactly same size as my current bedroom door (standard 820 x 2040 x 35mm, hollow in the middle). The handles are at the same height. I'd like to have a cat flap installed into the new door, have my current bedroom door removed for safe storage, and have the new door installed into the frame.

Another 5 star review for Ramsn. He did a great job. Super friendly, punctual, efficient. Highly recommend 👌
