The Magflap MK3 by Magman is a magnetic draught excluder designed for keyholes, ideal for homeowners looking to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency. Its primary benefit is creating a tighter seal than traditional methods, leading to a more comfortable indoor environment and potentially lower energy bills. A minor caveat is its specific application to keyholes, meaning it won't address draughts from other sources. Key features include its compact, discreet design, magnetic closure system, and versatile installation options.

The Magflap MK3 is a magnetic draught excluder designed specifically to seal keyholes, preventing cold air from entering and warm air from escaping your home.
It uses a patent-pending magnetic system that ensures the flap snaps shut tightly over the keyhole, creating a more effective seal than traditional brush or flap excluders.
Yes, installation is straightforward. It comes with a self-adhesive backing for easy application, or you can choose to screw it on for a more permanent fit.
The Magflap is compatible with a wide range of door types, including wood, uPVC, metal, and composite doors.
The Metal Mini Magflap has a diameter of 34mm and a thickness of 7mm.
By preventing heat loss through keyholes, the Magflap contributes to better insulation and can help reduce your heating costs, leading to lower energy bills.
Yes, it is suitable for both internal and external installation.
Ensure the area around the keyhole is clean and flat. Check that the magnetic components are free from debris. If using the adhesive method, ensure firm pressure was applied during installation.
Clean the door surface thoroughly with a degreaser and allow it to dry completely before re-applying the Magflap with its self-adhesive backing. Consider the screw-on method for a more permanent solution.
Ensure the Magflap is correctly aligned over the keyhole and not obstructing the lock mechanism itself. For some lock types, slight repositioning might be necessary. The screw-on method allows for fine adjustments.
Check that there are no metallic obstructions interfering with the magnets. Ensure the flap is closing directly onto its counterpart without misalignments.
