Is this mat flexible? I'm trying to warm the space between the main door and storm door ( 4 1//2 ") so the plastic flap in dog door stays flexible.

Hmm. Yes, it is flexible but it is intended to lay flat because of the wires which are inside the mat. Plus it probably wouldn't radiate enough heat. I don't think it will work for your intended use. I'd look at a new dog door. I had a door in my old house in PA so I understand what you want to fix although mine stayed flexible. Hope you can find a solution.

It is flexible. Depending on what application however, the adhesive back may not 'stay' ie if curved or angled.

I'm not sure if it is the same as a bath mat or not. Likely could be?! It is ultra absorbent and it tall chenille-like plush is tall enough to sort of wipe off the dogs feet when they come in doors. This backing stays put. It is not a rubber backing, but it does not slide or move. It has little rubbery-like lining on back that keeps it in position. I guess I would go feel one in a pet store and see what you think.

that one was installed in one of my rentals.. I have a similar one in my kitchen, carefully squeeze the soft-flexible cover and you will see how it hooks in one long side and slips in the other long side. if it is cold it is probably less flexible. and if you are ever working with one that is old, they do become brittle w. age.

Yes, it is flexible enough to fit from about an inch to and inch and a half or a little more. That part that angles in will spread out.

The mat is somewhat flexible but does have channels running through it so I am not sure it would bend that much for you and if you do you could damage it. If you did not check I do believe they make smaller ones.

It's fairly flexible........I roll mine up like a sleeping bag and store it in my closet. Hope this helps.

Yes it is flexable, just as the older ones were. However the round flap in the center may stick out on the sides unless you could somehow fasten it down from underneath. I wish rubbermaid would make a product for the center portion of double sinks. Hope this helps.

Well, it is pretty wide and will be tough to keep in place. The base is rubberized and will do OK. Our dog loves the mats in our 2 bathrooms. She goes in there on occasion to snooze and during T-storms.

The mat material is just cooler than other materials all by itself. My cat knows the difference if she's walking over it. When it's very hot she'll lie on it. It took a couple of "walk overs" for her to get that it was colder, however. I have also put a thin throw over it and that works, too. Putting it in the refrigerator makes it too cold for her.

Mat is nicely bound with nylon like fabric tape for a finished look. It is about 6mm or about 1/4" thick at the corners only. All other parts of it is thinner. Hope your door clears the corners it because it is a nice mat. Had the corners not cleared my doors, I would have been inclined to pound and flatten the 4 corners with a hammer. Do NOT know if this would have helped.

Had no problem with our mat. It also came rolled up in a carton and as I recall it was during cold weather. We just unrolled it and as I recall placed the curled area down until it straightened out and then turned it over the way it should be. This may have taken a day or so, but not as long as you have been dealing with it. Might want to try using a hair dryer that you can direct the heat on to the areas that don't want to lay down???? Would be worth a try. Good luck.

It is flexible. It comes rolled up in the box. When laid flat the berm is only 3/4" high. I assume you intend to position it on its side and attach it to you fence.

That might be pushing it. I has a very flexible seal, but in your case you may have to mount the mount the seal with a slight taper top to bottom. In other words if the door gap is tight against the jam on the bottom and has a 3/8 gap at the top, you may have to attach the seal slightly more towards the door at the top. The seal is very flexible and accommodates most warped doors. Be patient with the installation and position it and check before screwing it the jam. It is best to have a third hand. Checking around, I found this to be the best for my problem of sealing out cold air around warped doors -- it works great! good luck That might be pushing it.

My cat is about the size of wiener dog or Chihuahua. Actually it is easier to train an animal to pass through a larger door. The taller door is not as stiff as a shorter door. The Plastic is thick and in cold weather can get rather stiff. Precious cat has no problem. If using the double door, take off one door. After pets are accustomed to the flexibility of the door, put the second door back on. Love this product.

The only way I have been able to completely and continuously seal out the hot & cold is to have at least one of the hard plastic slide-in doors in place, especially during our windy and tornado seasons. With only the soft flaps, a very slight amount of air may sneak by once in a while with gusty, stronger winds. We have this mounted in our kitchen dining area wall, and have recently had 1 and 2 ambient degree mornings, and the soft flaps have not allowed the cold air to pass. During the summer months of high temps and high humidity, the flaps seal very well, with air passage being a non-issue. We have tried many doors before this one, and none have measured up. The most important point regarding proper functioning of the door is the proper installation. Done well, the door performs admirably. It was only after 6 years of very regular, hard use by our four large dogs (and one small), that it needed to be replaced, as some of the weather strips had finally worn out. Hope this helps!

No it's not flexible at all. But it's not thick and bulky so I really like it durability of it. I think you'll really enjoy it. My boyfriend got one too
