As this option permits other cats or animals to enter your home, it's not at all ideal, although it can be enhanced somewhat by holding the flap in position by adding magnetic strips.

The next step up from the magnetic strip pattern are RF chip or infra-red, magnetically controlled cat flaps. This involves your cat wearing a collar which has either an RF chip, IR or magnet encased within it. Unless an animal is fitted with one of these special collars, it will be unable to open the flap and leave or access your property, hence avoiding some undesirable visitors. The downside here is that any other cat in the area that's got a similar style of collar could perchance get into your property with this type of cat flap fitted. Even these cat flaps can be upgraded to some degree with an RF cat flap/collar system providing an owner programmed unique identifier.

Picking a cat flap which can be operated by your pet's own micro-chip, is the next step-up in entrance devices for felines. The memory of these battery powered cat flaps can be programmed with one or more microchip details (if you have more than one cat), to give exclusive access. Entry and exit can only be accomplished by microchipped animals, and the flap is unlocked when you cat is close by.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN BUDLEIGH SALTERTON

Double Glazing Installations - If you happen to hire somebody who attempts to drill a hole in your double glazing to install your new cat flap, stop them immediately and ask them to leave. A new cat flap can't be installed into a pre-existing double glazed window pane or door panel. Any sort of double glazing will be damaged by drilling a hole in it, and will diminish its security, strength and insulating attributes. The double glazing will be made unsound, and it shouldn't be attempted under any circumstances whatsoever.

A dependable Budleigh Salterton cat flap installer will diligently get the dimensions of your existing pane and order a custom-made one from a local glazing firm. So your cat flap can be snugly fitted into it, this new double glazing panel will be provided with a hole pre-cut as an integral part of its construction. This is really the only way to fit a cat flap in a pre-existing patio or double glazed door, even though it might take a week or two to produce. As soon as your new glass panel arrives, the installer will take out the old one, and swap it for the new "cat flap ready" pane. It will now be possible to install and set up the cat flap.

uPVC Door Panels - uPVC doors can be installed with a cat flap. You or your installer will have to find out what the internal structure of you door actually is, because for extra security some uPVC doors are manufactured with a steel lining. A one-piece panel enables easier installation, so if you've got a uPVC door that is slatted, it might be less expensive to swap the panel for a single panel type.

Wall Installation - It's also feasible to get a cat flap mounted in an outside wall of your property in Budleigh Salterton, if you do not want to cut holes in your doors, for security or aesthetic reasons. This sort of installment is certainly best left to an expert, because it calls for much more equipment and skill to accomplish.

A cat flap of your choice is then attached at both ends to permit your furry friend to enter and exit as it pleases.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Budleigh Salterton - If you already have a cat flat, but it is either damaged or not operating correctly, the existing hole in your wall, door or window can be used for a replacement provided that the new cat flap is of an equivalent size. Your cat flap fitter will remove the unwanted cat flap, without causing damage to the surrounding wall, door or window, and install a new flap for your cat.

When the cat flap installation involves a pre-cut hole in a double glazed pane, it is important to check that this was previously done accurately, before fitting the new cat flap.
