Cat Flap Fitter Conisbrough South Yorkshire (DN12): Installing a cat flap to an outside wall or door in your Conisbrough property helps to give your cat the independence that it needs to live a life of contentment. When continuously kept indoors, cats just like humans, will get crabby and irritated. When your beloved cat is allowed instant access to the great outdoors by way of a cat flap, there's a better chance of it staying both physically and mentally healthy. But what sort of cat flap is the best solution for your circumstances?
The most fundamental form of cat flap, is simply that. A hole is cut in an outside door and a flexible material is fixed over the gap to offer some protection from the weather. Even though this might be suitable in a garden fence panel or shed door, the vast majority of cat owners in Conisbrough would favour something a bit more secure and weatherproof for an exterior door to their property.
As this option allows other animals or cats to enter your house, it's not at all recommended, though it can be enhanced a little by holding the flap in position by adding a magnetic strip.
Magnetically operated, infra-red or RF chip styles of cat flap, are the next step up from the magnetic strip variation. In this case, either a magnet, IR or RF chip will be fitted into your cat's collar. Unless an animal is equipped with this special collar, it will not be able to trigger the flap and get into or leave your house, thus avoiding some undesirable visitors. Again this is a fairly simple type of cat flap, given that any other moggy in the area that's got a similar model of collar can easily access your property. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the best version of these devices as they can be programmed by the home owner to recognise a unique identifier, distinct to your pet.
Installing a cat flap that can be operated by your cat's own micro-chip, is the next level in entry security for felines. The number of your cat's microchip is entered into the memory of the battery powered cat flap (multiple entries are possible if you have more than one pet). When your cat is in close proximity to the flap, it will unlock and allow only your micro-chipped pets to use the entrance/exit.
The ability to lock it in place is important regardless of what cat flap you are purchasing. For added security, most cat flaps feature a 4-way locking mechanism nowadays. Which means that it has the capability to be fully locked, enable exit from your home only, permit entrance into your home only, or be put in two way exit and entry mode. This offers you options for all times of day and night, to have control over exactly how your cat flap functions. Some of the high end cat flaps can be programmed to perform particular functions in accordance with the time of day, in line with yours and your cat's needs.
If you're pretty decent at DIY, putting in your own cat flap shouldn't be too much of a challenge, as long as you've got a wooden door on your property in Conisbrough. But, if you are planning to install it into a reinforced uPVC door or in a double glazed window panel, you ought to ask for outside assistance. These kinds of fixtures call for a professional installation from a reputable cat flap fitter or carpenter with the necessary skills and equipment.
