Cat Flap Fitter Aldershot

Cat Flap Fitter Aldershot Hampshire (GU11): A simple way to give your cat more independence and boost it's overally quality of life is to install a cat flap on an external door or wall of your property in Aldershot. Cats are inclined to get grouchy and irritated when constantly kept indoors, and not allowed to roam. Allowing your furry friend accessibility to world outside by way of a cat flap can also help to keep them mentally and physically fit. If you elect to go with the cat flap option, your next decision will be what type of cat flap would be best for you.

A cat flap at its most basic is merely that. A hole is cut into an external door and a flexible material is placed over the gap to give protection from the elements. Though this might be acceptable in a shed door or garden fence panel, the vast majority of cat owners in Aldershot would doubtless favour something a tad more secure and weatherproof for an external door to their property.

Since this solution permits other creatures or cats to enter your house, it isn't at all recommended, though it can be enhanced to some extent by keeping the flap in place with the addition of magnetic strips.

A step up from the magnetic strip style are RF chip or infra-red, magnetically controlled cat flaps. With this kind of cat flap, your cat must wear a collar featuring an RF chip, IR or magnet. No animal is going to be able to access or leave your home unless it is fitted with this special collar. The fact that any other cat in the neighbourhood who's got a similar model of collar might be able to gain access to your home, is the drawback with this sort of cat flap. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the best version of this equipment as they can be programmed by the cat owner to recognise a unique identifier, distinct to your cat.

Having a cat flap that can be operated by your cat's own microchip, is the next step-up in entry gadgets for felines in Aldershot. The details of your cat's micro-chip are entered into the memory of the battery powered cat flap (multiple entries can be made if you have several cats). When your cat passes close to the flap, it will unlock and permit only your micro-chipped pets to use the entrance/exit.

No matter which cat flap you buy, it must have the ability to be locked in place. For extra flexibility, nearly all cat flaps boast a 4-way locking system these days. Which means that it has the capability to permit admittance into your property only, permit exit only, be locked fully, or be put in 2-way entry and exit mode. This provides complete control over the functioning of your cat flap both during the day and throughout the night time. The wherewithal to perform specific functions in accordance with the time of day, and based on your cat's and your needs is also a possibility with some of the high end brands of cat flap.

If you are pretty decent at do-it-yourself, putting in a cat flap should not be too much of a challenge, as long as you have a wooden door on your home in Aldershot. Under no circumstances should you attempt to fit a cat flap in a reinforced PVC door or in a double glazed window panel. Such situations require the expertise and skills of an experienced cat flap fitter or handyman, who'll have all the tools and knowledge for this type of installation project.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN ALDERSHOT

Double Glazing Installations - If you call in a "tradesman" who, while trying to install your new cat flap, attempts to drill a hole in a double glazing door or window panel, send them packing immediately. A new cat flap can't be fitted into an existing double glazed door panel or window pane. Any type of double glazed unit will be ruined by cutting into it, and will detract from its strength, security and thermal attributes. The double glazing will be rendered unsafe, and it shouldn't be attempted under any circumstances.

It is necessary to get a new double glazed unit made especially for this purpose by a glazing supplier, and your chosen Aldershot cat flap installer will measure your existing panel and put in an order for a brand new one. So your cat flap can be snugly fitted into it, this new double glazing pane will arrive with a hole pre-cut as part of its construction. You might have to wait a week or two for this special pane to be produced, however if you need a cat flap installed in an existing patio or double glazed door, this is the only way to do it. Once you've obtained your new pane of glass, the old one can be taken out and the new one fitted. It's now possible to install and set up the new cat flap.

External Wooden Doors - Wooden door panels are, as we previously mentioned, the simplest alternatives for installing a new cat flap in Aldershot. If you're uncomfortable with cutting a hole in your door, it's advisable to call on a specialist to undertake the project for you. This kind of task will not be too expensive and is really worth doing correctly, if getting your cat flap installed by a professional offers you that added peace of mind.

uPVC Door Panels - uPVC doors can be suitable for installing a cat flap. It is necessary to know the internal construction, since some door panels are lined with steel for extra security. A one-piece panel allows for easier installation, so if you have a uPVC door that is slatted, it may be more cost effective to swap the panel for a single panel model.

Wall Installation - If you do not really want to have a hole cut into your doors, either for aesthetic or safety reasons, you could have a cat flap installed on an outside wall. A cat flap entrance in a wall requires considerably more skill and equipment to install, so it's definitely better left to the pros. You can pick out a straight-through tunnel design, or perhaps a right angled version which enables entry through a pillar. A neat square hole will be cut through your chosen wall, into which is inserted a plastic or metal, open ended square tube. The cat flap you have chosen can then be attached at both ends to allow your cat to enter and exit as it wishes.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Aldershot - If you've already got a cat flap fitted on your wall, window or door, but it is damaged or not functioning correctly, the existing hole can hopefully still be used for installing a new one. A trustworthy cat flap installer in Aldershot will be capable of removing the unwanted cat flap, and fit a brand new one as a replacement without causing damage to the wall, window or door.

Before attaching the new cat flap in double glazing which has been pre-cut, checking that the existing glass has been fabricated, cut and installed accurately is essential. If you discover that this is not the case, and a botch was made of the original installation, the glass pane must be taken out and replaced to avoid any security and safety issues.
