Cat Flap Fitter Bramhall

Cat Flap Fitter Bramhall Greater Manchester (SK7): Fitting a cat flap doesn't just save you the inconvenience of having to open the door every time the cat wishes to stroll out or in, it also gives your cat extra independence and boosts it's quality of life. Much like people, when kept indoors for long periods of time, cats will sometimes show signs of irritability and frustration. When allowed easy access to the world outside with a cat flap, your beloved cat has a much better chance of staying healthy and well. If you elect to go down the cat flap route, your next decision will be what is the best type of cat flap for you.

The most rudimentry kind of cat flap is essentially that. A hole is cut into an outside door and a bendable material is hung over it to offer some protection from the weather. Most Bramhall cat owners would no doubt favour something a little more weatherproof and secure for a main door to their property, although this may be okay for an outhouse door or garden fence panel.

This basic design can be marginally improved on with magnetic strips to keep the flap in place, but it's still a long way from being perfect because it enables other animals or cats a way to enter into your home.

A step up from the magnetic strip model are infra-red or RF chip, magnetically operated cat flaps. With these, either an IR, RF chip or magnet will be fitted into your cat's collar. Unless an animal is fitted with this special collar, it won't be able to open the flap and access or leave your house, hence keeping out some unwelcome visitors. The reality that any other moggy in the Bramhall area that has a similar style of collar can easily access your property, is the drawback with this sort of cat flap. Even these cat flaps can be improved to a certain extent with an RF cat flap/collar system providing a user programmed unique identifier.

The kind of cat flap which is can be operated by your pet's own micro-chip, is the next step-up in feline entry security. The details of your cat's micro-chip are entered into the cat flap's memory (multiple entries can be made if you've got more than one pet). Entry and exit are only possible for microchipped animals, and the flap will be unlocked whenever you cat is nearby.

Being able to lock it in place is vital regardless which cat flap you're buying. Nowadays, most cat flaps on the market have a four way locking mechanism for extra security. This means that the cat flap can be locked fully, permit only exit from your home, allow only admittance into your property, or be set for two-way exit and entry. This gives you alternatives for all times of night and day, to have control over how your cat flap functions. Some top-end devices can be programmed to perform specific functions in accordance with the time of day, based on your pet's and your requirements.

If you have a wooden door in your home in Bramhall, installing a cat flap yourself shouldn't be all that complicated. Not in any circumstances should you try to fit a cat flap in a double glazed window or in a reinforced uPVC door. These kinds of fixtures call for a professional installation by a reliable cat flap installer or odd job man with the appropriate skills and equipment.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN BRAMHALL

Double Glazing Installation - If you employ someone who tries to drill a hole in your double glazing to put in your cat flap, stop them right away and request that they leave. New cat flaps can't be fitted into pre-existing double glazing doors or window panels. Any sort of double glazed unit will be damaged by drilling a hole in it, and will damage its thermal insulation attributes, security and strength. The double glazing will be made unsafe, and it shouldn't be done under any circumstances.

A professional cat flap installer will take the measurements of the existing double glazed pane and have a local Bramhall glazing company knock up a new pane. As an integral part of its construction this new pane will have a hole pre-cut, which the cat flap can be installed perfectly into. This might take two weeks or so to produce, but it is really the only way to fit a cat flap into an existing double glazed or patio door. When your new pane of glass shows up, the fitter will take out the old one, and swap it for the brand new "cat flap ready" panel. It will now be possible to fit your new cat flap.

Exterior Wooden Doors - The simplest option for cat flap installations in Bramhall, as was stated earlier, are solid wooden doors. If you are uncertain about cutting a hole in your front or back door, it's wise to call on a professional to do the job for you. This should provide you with the peace of mind that you will end up with an expertly installed cat friendly flap, and that the job has been done properly.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can generally speaking be fitted into uPVC doors. It is necessary to know the internal construction, because some uPVC door panels can have a steel lining for added security. A one-piece door panel enables simpler installation, so if you've got a slatted uPVC door, it may be more economical to exchange this panel for a single pane style.

Wall Installation - If you do not really want to have a hole cut in your doors, for aesthetic or security reasons, you can always have a cat flap installed in an external wall. Requiring considerably more expertise and equipment, a wall cat flap installment is certainly better left to a professional, if it is to be accomplished correctly. You could pick out a straight through tunnel style, or maybe a right angle version which enables access through a pillar. A square shaped hole will need to be made through your chosen wall, into which is inserted a metal or plastic, square open ended tube. An appropriate cat flap is then attached to each end of the hole.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Bramhall - If your door, window or wall already has a cat flap fitted, but it's not working properly, or is damaged, it is quite possible to mount a replacement over the existing cavity. A reliable cat flap installer in Bramhall will be able to remove your old,unwanted cat flap, and fix a brand new one as a replacement without damaging the door, wall or window.

If the replacement cat flap is to be installed in a pre cut hole in a double glazing pane, you must check that the existing glass has been manufactured and installed correctly. The glass pane will have to be removed and replaced with a new one to avoid any security and safety problems, if it's found this is not the case and corners were cut in the original installation.
