Cat Flap Fitter Bordon

Cat Flap Fitter Bordon Hampshire (GU35): To allow your cat the independence and freedom it needs to live a happy life, you could fit a cat flap to an exterior wall or door in your Bordon house. Cats are very similar to people in many ways, and will often show signs of irritability and frustration if kept inside for long periods of time without a break. When allowed quick access to the great outdoors with a cat flap, your precious cat has a better chance of staying healthy and fit. But what style of cat flap is most suitable in your case?

The most basic type of cat flap, is just that. A piece of bendable material placed over a hole in a door to permit a cat to pass through, but keep out the elements. Though this may be suitable in a garden fence panel or shed door, the majority of cat owners in Bordon would no doubt prefer something a tad more secure and weatherproof for an outside door to their house.

This simple design can be improved on a little with a magnetic strip to keep the flap in place, however it's still a long way from being ideal because it allows other cats or animals a way to enter your property.

Moving on from a basic magnetic strip are magnetically controlled, infra-red or RF chip models of cat flap. This involves your cat wearing a collar that has either a magnet, IR or RF chip encased inside it. What this means is that any animal that hasn't got a special collar cannot get into or leave your house. Again this is a relatively simple kind of cat flap, because any other moggy in the Bordon area that's got a similar model of collar can still gain access to your home. An upgrade to this device is an RF cat flap/collar system which contains a unique identifier which can be programmed by the user.

The type of cat flap which is able to identify your cat's micro-chip, is the next stage in feline access security. The details of your cat's microchip are programmed into the cat flap's memory (multiple entries are possible if you have more than one cat). Entry and exit can only be accomplished by micro-chipped animals, and the flap will be unfastened whenever you cat is close by.

Whenever you are buying a cat flap, you should make certain it's of a type that can be locked into position. These days, the majority of cat flaps on the market boast a 4-way locking mechanism for extra security. This makes it possible for your cat flap to be locked fully, enable exit only, enable entry into your home only, or have two way exit and entrance functionality. This will provide you with a number of choices on how your cat flap operates any time of the day and night time. Some of the higher end models can be programmed to carry out specific functions according to the time of day, in line with your cat's and your requirements.

If you have a wood door on your home in Bordon, fitting you own cat flap shouldn't be too difficult. But, if you're looking to install it in a double glazed window panel or in a reinforced uPVC door, you need to ask for outside help. These types of fixtures call for a professional installation from a dependable cat flap fitter or carpenter with the necessary equipment and skills.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN BORDON

Double Glazing Installation - If you call in a "tradesman" who, while trying to install your cat flap, attempts to drill a hole in a double glazed door or window panel, send them on their way immediately. New cat flaps can not be installed into existing double glazed doors or window panels. Making holes in the double glazing damages not only the security and strength of the glazing, but it removes the insulation properties as well. It should in no circumstances be attempted and will render your double glazing unsound.

A reliable Bordon cat flap installer will meticulously take the measurements of your current unit and order a custom-made one from a local glazing company. So that the cat flap can be neatly fitted into it, this new double glazed unit will arrive with a hole pre-cut as a part of its construction. This is the only way to fit a cat flap into a pre-existing patio or double glazed door, although it may take a week or two to manufacture. After fabrication, the old glass pane can be removed, and the new one put in. The fitting of the cat flap will then be completed.

Exterior Wooden Doors - The easiest alternative for new cat flap installations in Bordon, as was mentioned earlier in this article, are wooden doors. If you're hesitant about making a hole in your front or back door, it's wise to call on a specialist to complete the task for you. This should give you the reassurance that you are going to end up with a professionally installed cat flap, and that the job has been completed correctly and without causing harm to your door.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can generally be installed into uPVC doors. You or your installer will have to establish what the internal structure of you door is, because for added security certain uPVC doors are manufactured with a reinforced steel lining. A one-piece door panel allows for easier installation, so if you have a uPVC door that is slatted, it may be cheaper to exchange this panel for a single panel type.

Wall Installation - If, for aesthetic or safety reasons, you do not wish to have a hole cut into your door, you could always elect to install your cat flap on an outside wall of your home. Calling for considerably more expertise and equipment, a wall cat flap installment is certainly best left to the pros, if it is to be completed correctly. The majority of wall cat flap installations are a simple straight tunnelled style, but right angle access via a pillar is also possible. Installation entails a neat square hole being made through your wall, into which a metal or plastic, open ended square tube is inserted. Each end of the hole is then fitted with an appropriate cat flap so your feline friend can get out of and into your house whenever it desires.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Bordon - If your door, window or wall already has a cat flap installed, but it's not working properly, or is damaged, it is quite possible to fit a replacement into the existing hole. You local cat flap fitter will be able to remove the old cat flap, without damaging the surrounding window, door or wall, and install a brand new flap for your cat.

When your installation involves insertion into a pre-cut hole in a double glazed pane, it will be essential to make sure that this was previously done accurately, before attaching the new flap. If it becomes obvious that this is not the case, and corners were cut in the original installation, the glass pane will need to be taken out and replaced to avoid any safety and security problems.

Cat Flap Weatherproofing

Cat flap weatherproofing is an essential aspect of ensuring the comfort and well-being of both indoor and outdoor cats. Cats are shielded from chilly draughts, rain, wind, and extreme temperatures by a well-weatherproofed cat flap, which serves as an effective barrier against the elements. This protective approach has a positive impact on both their safety and their overall quality of life.

Achieving weatherproofing for a cat flap requires the deliberate choice of materials and design characteristics that can withstand varying weather conditions. Top-quality seals around the edges of the cat flap are crucial to prevent rainwater from seeping indoors, ensuring a dry environment. The health and overall contentment of cats can be affected by cold draughts, which can seriously discomfort them. Cats can be protected from chilling draughts and ensured to remain warm and cosy by using insulating materials as part of effective weatherproofing process. (13579)
