Cat Flap Fitter Denmead

Cat Flap Fitter Denmead Hampshire (PO7): To provide your cat with the independence and freedom that it needs to live a life of contentment, you could install a cat flap to an outside wall or door in your Denmead house. Exactly like people, when kept indoors, cats will likely start to show signs of anxiety and frustration. Giving your furry friend accessibility to outside world with a cat flap can help to keep them physically and mentally fit. Of course, that isn't the whole story, because there are various types of cat flaps, and deciding which design is best for you and your cat might not be so easy.

The most straightforward sort of cat flap, is just that. A hole cut in a door with a bendable bit of material fixed over it, to keep out the elements, but allow the cat pass through. Of course, this is really basic, and will rarely good enough for most cat owners in Denmead, who would doubtless favour something a little more weatherproof and secure for an external door to their property, although it could be suitable for an outhouse door or garden fence panel.

Since this solution permits other cats or animals to enter your home, it's not at all ideal, though it can be enhanced to some degree by holding the flap in place with the addition of magnetic strips.

Moving on from a magnetic strip are magnetically controlled, infra-red or RF chip variations of cat flap. This requires that your cat wears a collar which has either an RF chip, IR or magnet encased within it. Unless an animal is equipped with one of these special collars, it won't be able to open the flap and leave or get into your house, therefore keeping out some undesirable visitors. The downside here is that any other moggy in the neighbourhood that has a similar style of collar might be able to access your house when using this type of cat flap. Even these cat flaps can be enhanced to some extent with an RF cat flap/collar system having an owner programmed unique identifier.

The type of cat flap which is capable of identifying your cat's micro-chip, is the next level in Denmead feline entry security. The memory of these cat flaps can be programmed with one or more microchip numbers (if you have several cats), to give exclusive access. The flap will be unfastened whenever your cat is nearby, only allowing entry or exit to animals that are microchipped.

Regardless which cat flap you buy, it should have the ability to be locked in place. Nowadays, most cat flaps on the market feature a four way locking system for added security. This makes it possible for your cat flap to enable exit only, permit only entrance into your premises, be locked fully, or have 2-way entry and exit capability. This will provide you with a variety of alternatives on how your cat flap works any time of the day and night time. Based on your pet's and your needs, there is even the option to perform particular functions according to the time of day, with several of the more advanced devices.

If you're pretty good at DIY, putting in your own cat flap should not be too much of a challenge, as long as you have a timber door on your Denmead home. Although, if it needs to be fitted into a double glazed window panel or in a reinforced uPVC door, you should under no circumstances even attempt to tackle it yourself. These types of fixtures call for a professional installation from a reputable cat flap installer or odd job man with the necessary skills and equipment.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN DENMEAD

Double Glazing Installations - If you bring in a so-called "tradesman" who, while endeavouring to install your cat flap, starts to drill a hole in a double glazed panel, send them on their way immediately. A new cat flap can not be installed into a pre-existing double glazing door panel or window pane. Making holes in the double glazing damages not just the security and strength of the glazing, but it takes away the insulating properties too. In actual fact, it makes your glazing unsound and it shouldn't ever be attempted.

It is necessary to get a new double glazing pane made specially for this purpose by a glazing company, and your chosen Denmead cat flap installer will take the measurements of your existing pane and order the new one. This new glazed pane will be delivered with a hole cut out as part of its construction where the cat flap can be fitted. This is really the only way to fit a cat flap in a pre-existing double glazed or patio door, although it might take a week or two to manufacture. Once your new glass pane arrives, the installer will take out the old one, and exchange it for the brand new "cat flap ready" panel. It's now possible to fit your cat flap.

Exterior Wooden Doors - Timber door panels are, as we stated earlier, the easiest options for installing a new cat flap in Denmead. If you are somewhat nervous about creating a hole in your front or back door, you may be happier contacting an expert carpenter or cat flap fitter instead. This kind of project should not be expensive and will provide you with the satisfaction of knowing that your cat will be climbing through an expertly fitted flap.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can in general be fitted into uPVC doors. However, certain uPVC door panels are lined with steel for added security, which can cause some issues. The easiest kind of installation is in doors with a single panel, therefore if you've got a uPVC door with vertical slatted panels, it may be easier and cheaper overall to exchange the slats for a one-piece panel.

Wall Installation - If, for security or aesthetic reasons, you don't want to have a chunk cut out of one of your doors, you could decide to install a cat flap in an exterior wall of your home. Requiring a lot more equipment and skill, a wall cat flap installation is definitely best left to a professional, if it's to be completed correctly. Nearly all wall cat flap installations involve a basic straight tunnel style, but right angled access via a pillar is also possible. With this type of installation a plastic or metal, square open ended insert is fitted into a square hole made into your wall. A cat flap is then installed on both sides of the hole.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Denmead - If you've already got a cat flat, but it's either damaged or not working properly, the current hole in your window, wall or door can be used for a replacement providing that the new flap is of a similar size. A professional Denmead cat flap fitter will be happy to take off your old unit and swap it for a brand new cat flap without causing any damage to the window, wall or door on which it is secured.

When the installation involves insertion into a pre-cut hole in double glazing, it will be necessary to make sure that this was previously done accurately, before fitting the new cat flap. If it's discovered that corners were cut with the previous installation, the glass will need to be removed and replaced with a new one to avoid any safety and security issues with the new flap.
