Have had this installed for five days, so I can't vouch for it's durability, but it seems well built, and hope it stands up to many months/years of use.Door was easy to install, the template that came with it was very accurate, if you are worried about making the hole too small, just cut on the outside edge of a traced line (if you trace it). Ours was installed in a hollow door with cardboard bracing, so I had to remove a bit of cardboard and put some 1x1 in the door to brace the cat door and provide additional wood to screw the cat door into.As mentioned before, the magnet is on the powerful side. I ended up removing it after two nights of hearing our cats try to pull on the door with their claws to get it to open. With it removed, they have figured out that they can just walk through it now. I also removed the locks, ours is on an interior door and not needed. The cats did manage to lock the door twice before I removed the magnet, not sure if just removing the magnet would have fixed this or not, but now it freely opens.Added benefit of the cat door is, since our bedroom doesn't have a cold air return vent, air didn't circulate out the room with the door closed. Now it does, since I've removed the magnet, the air has enough force to push the door open a crack and let air out.Another good point is, with the cat door closed, it blocks out noise just as well as the door did without it installed. I was impressed that we didn't hear more noise from other rooms (namely the tv in the living room) with the cat door installed.Overall, if I had to install cat doors in other doors in the house, I'd definitely buy this one again.
