Is this a single or double flap door? And is the insert insulated?

This is a single flap door. When it is really windy or rainy, I tend to put the cover on it.

It is a single flap door, but there is a second hard plastic sheathing that you can use it to lock the pet door when you travel.There's not much insulation. It has insulation strips to go between the window and the pet door but the glass is likely not as insulating as the windows in modern American homes.

there is a single flap that opens in both directions. the flap has decent insulation when flap is closed. ours closes completely most times under normal use (lab going in and out). sometimes it doesn't close completely and there is a gap. when we notice a gap, it is easy to close. not a perfect solution but it works well for our purposes in light of the moderate cost and very simple installation/removal that requires no hardware or alternations - easy to drop in and take out. we live in SE Pennsylvania. during major cold spells or if we are going away, we take the whole thing out and close the window. there is a single flap that opens in both directions. the flap has decent insulation when flap is closed. ours closes completely most times under normal use (lab going in and out). sometimes it doesn't close completely and there is a gap. when we notice a gap, it is easy to close. not a perfect solution but it works well for our purposes in light of the moderate cost and very simple installation/removal that requires no hardware or alternations - easy to drop in and take out. we live in SE Pennsylvania. during major cold spells or if we are going away, we take the whole thing out and close... » Read More there is a single flap that opens in both directions. the flap has decent insulation when flap is closed. ours closes completely most times under normal use (lab going in and out). sometimes it doesn't close completely and there is a gap. when we notice a gap, it is easy to close. not a perfect solution but it works well for our purposes in light of the moderate cost and very simple installation/removal that requires no hardware or alternations - easy to drop in and take out. we live in SE Pennsylvania. during major cold spells or if we are going away, we take the whole thing out and close the window. « Show Less

Single flap, and the unit itself seems to have some insulation built in. I had to insulate the edges where it contacts the window frame. That pretty much solved the problem of keeping the good air in and bad air out. Overall this has been a great item and my dogs love it. A steady strong wind will make the flap open tho, just insert the slide in door provided until the wind lays.

Thanks everyone -- based on the responses, I don't think this product is of use to me.

Single vinyl flap that is magnetically sealed. Sides are solid with aluminium frame. Single glazed and not insulated.

It's a side entry. Lay something in the bottom for insulation depending on how cold the climate gets where you are. It can get chilly.

There is only one flap which is the door, made of hard plastic; the other side is open-ended (which is necessary for the door to swing both ways). Works very well, the magnetic 'unlock' sound is a bit startling to the pets as they need to be basically nosing the door to activate, but once trained, it's great.

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 did get the replacement flap and was please with it. Easy to install. It is my third or fourht order. I don't know anything about the sliding door to lock out the pets though.

the flap is about 5 3/4 by 6 1/4 inch. The housing dimension is about 10 1/4 by 9 1/2 inch

it is a single hinge. non mortising hinges do not have that tab that lets screw in from the back of the door. these are stronger.

It has a permanate rubber flap. The solid plastic insert is to lock it to prevent anything from coming in or out if needed

Specs are as stated in the previous two replies but I wanted to piggy back off of Michigan amazon's reply and also recommend that you do NOT purchase the door flap... very difficult to install and the dogs tend not to like it as it is not see-through. It really isn't necessary anyway with the igloo-style opening.

also has 1 door. Also be careful when buying these, the material deteriates quickly. You have a 1 year warranty and take pictures and call them if you see pin holes before the year is upI would not buy another. They want $350 for replacement canvas.

Its a garage door. You can keep it zipped and only use one side as a way in.

It has openings on the front and the back. This is good for escape, but bad if you would prefer a flap, as you mention, perhaps to keep the pet warmer in the winter. There is no cover or flap to either opening.

I can't answer about a flap, but the new vent that went in does not allow cold air to pass back into my laundry room.

The door flap is virtually silent - a slight thump can be heard as the magnets align - hardly noticeable. A separate note: the door must b absolutely square when installed or it may not fully close, leaving a slight gap. Not a problem for bedroom door, but for an outside exit can loose AC or Heat.

2 flaps. I've had them for about three months now, and they are awesome. Well for flaps.
