thats the one i have. it doesnt do anything to prevent the thing from flapping open from wind. the door gets too oily from the pets over time and causes the plastic to become mishapen and hardened, stopping the flaps from going back to their original location. the magnets provided are weak also.

We're sorry to hear you've had difficulty with your door, Clark! Though no flap can withstand very intense wind, the strong magnets on these flaps do provide wind resistance. It is important to mention that it is normal to need to replace flaps over time due to the heavy use they endure. We do apologize for any misunderstanding. We would love to speak with you about your situation directly, to see what could be occurring to cause this and what might help. So that we can do so, please reach out to us. Our number is 1-800-732-2677, and our hours are Monday through Friday 8 A.M.- 8 P.M. EST and Saturdays 9 A.M.- 5 P.M. EST.

I have the same issues. Over time the flaps warp and the magnet doesn't hold good. With a little wind the flap stays open about an inch so it gets a little cool in winter time. The plastic cover isn't any good because I have to keep it by the door so it's unsightly but my dogs just use their nails to hook it off. Should have come on a hinge.

Based on your description, it is likely time to change out the flap for a fresh one, which will be part of regular maintenance needed over the pet door's lifetime.
