Cat Flap Fitter Alsager

Cat Flap Fitter Alsager Cheshire (ST7): Fitting a cat flap to an external wall or door in your Alsager home allows your cat the freedom and independence it needs to live a life of contentment. When constantly kept inside, cats much like humans, will get irritated and crabby. Having a cat that's both physically and mentally fit, is one of the main positive aspects of giving your furry friend easy access to outside world via a cat flap. So, you think it's a good idea, but precisely what is perfect type of cat flap for your precious pet?

The most rudimentry sort of cat flap is basically that. A hole is cut in an exterior door and a flexible material is hung over the gap to offer a bit of protection from the elements. The majority of cat owners in Alsager would prefer something a little more secure and weatherproof for a main door to their property, although this could be okay for a shed or outhouse door.

Since this solution can allow other cats or animals to enter your property, it's not at all recommended, although it can be enhanced to some extent by keeping the flap in place with the addition of magnetic strips.

The next step up from the magnetic strip model are RF chip or infra-red, magnetically controlled cat flaps. This requires that your cat wears a collar that has either an IR, RF chip or magnet encased inside it. Unless an animal is equipped with one of these special collars, it will be unable to open the flap and leave or get into your house, thus avoiding some unwelcome visitors. The fact that any other cat in the neighbourhood that has a similar model of collar will be able to access your house, is the drawback with this type of cat flap. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the best version of these products and can be programmed by the householder to recognise a unique identifier, distinct to your cat.

Fitting a cat flap that can identify your cat's own micro-chip, is the next level in access devices for felines. The memory of these cat flaps can be programmed with one or even multiple microchip details (if you have more than one cat), to give exclusive access. When your cat comes into close vicinity of the flap, it unlocks and permits only your micro-chipped pets to use the entrance/exit.

Whatever cat flap you buy, it should be capable of being locked in place. The majority of cat flaps sold these days feature a 4-way locking system. Which means that the cat flap can be fully locked, permit only admittance into your home, enable only exit from your home, or be set for 2-way exit and entry. This offers total control over the functioning of your cat flap both during the day and throughout the night. Some more expensive models can be programmed to perform different functions according to the time of day, in keeping with your cat's and your needs.

Installing a cat flap yourself can be quite straightforward if you've got a solid timber door, and respectable DIY capabilities. But, if you are intending to install it in a reinforced uPVC door or in a double glazed window panel, you should seek outside help. This kind of installation requires the attention of a professional, and there are specialist cat flap installers and skilled carpenters who will be ready to undertake such a task.

INSTALLING CAT FLAPS IN ALSAGER

Double Glazing Installation - If you happen to hire somebody who tries to drill a hole in your double glazing to install your cat flap, stop them without delay and ask them to leave. It's just not possible to fit a new cat flap into a double glazing door panel or window pane. Making a hole in the double glazing destroys not only the security and strength of the panel, but it compromises the insulating attributes too. It should under no circumstances be attempted and will render the double glazing unsafe.

A reliable Alsager cat flap installer will diligently take the measurements of your current unit and order a ready prepared one from a local glazing firm. As part of its structure this new pane will have a hole pre-cut, which the cat flap can be installed perfectly into. This can take a week or two to manufacture, but it is basically the only way to install a cat flap into an existing double glazed or patio door. Once you've acquired your new modified glass pane, the old one can be removed and the new one installed. The fitting of the cat flap will then be completed.

External Wooden Doors - Solid timber door panels are, as I already mentioned, the easiest options for new cat flap installation in Alsager. It is generally advisable to hire the services of a professional carpenter or cat flap fitter, if you're unsure about creating a hole in your door. This type of undertaking will not be too costly and is worth doing correctly, if getting your cat flap installed by a professional gives you that added reassurance.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can be installed into uPVC doors in most instances. Having said that, some uPVC doors are lined with steel for extra security, which may cause some problems. The designs of door with a one-piece panel are the simplest for installing cat flaps, so if yours has a slatted type door panel, it might be advisable to replace this with a single panel.

Wall Installation - It's also possible to get a cat flap installed in an outside wall of your property in Alsager, if you do not want to cut chunks out of your doors, whether for security or aesthetic reasons. Requiring much more equipment and skill, a wall cat flap install is undoubtedly best left to a professional, if it is to be executed successfully. You can choose a straight through tunnel style, or maybe a right angled model that allows entry through a pillar. Installation involves a neat square hole being cut through your wall, into which a plastic or metal, open ended square tube is inserted. Both ends of the hole are then installed with a cat flap so that your cat can get in and out of your house whenever it wants.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Alsager - If you've already got a cat flap fitted on your wall, window or door, but it's damaged or not operating properly, the existing hole can hopefully still be used for the installation of a replacement. A decent cat flap installer in Alsager will be capable of removing the unwanted cat flap, and fit a brand new one as a replacement without harming the wall, door or window.

If the substitute cat flap is going to be fitted in a pre cut hole in a double glazing pane, you must make sure that the glass has been made and installed correctly. If it's found this is not the case, and corners were cut in the original installation, the glass unit will need to be taken out and replaced with a new one to avoid any safety and security issues.
