Cat Flap Fitter Droitwich

Cat Flap Fitter Droitwich Worcestershire (WR9): Putting in a cat flap doesn't only save you the effort of having to open the door every time your cat wishes to stroll out or in, it also affords your cat more independence and enhances it's quality of life. Cats are quite like humans in many ways, and will sometimes start to show signs of anxiety and frustration if kept indoors for long periods of time. Having a cat that is both mentally and physically fit, is one of the main positive aspects of allowing your pet access to the world outside by way of a cat flap. So, you think it's a great idea, but exactly what is perfect form of cat flap for your pet?

Essentially, a cat flap at its most fundamental is merely that. A piece of flexible material fixed over a hole in a door to allow a cat to go through, but keep out the elements. Though this may be acceptable in an outhouse or shed door, the vast majority of cat owners in Droitwich would no doubt prefer something a tad more weatherproof and secure for an exterior door to their home.

This basic design can be somewhat improved upon with magnetic strips to keep the flap in position, however it is still far from ideal because it allows other cats or animals to enter into your home.

Magnetically operated, RF chip or infra-red models of cat flap, are a step up from the basic magnetic strip version. With this kind of cat flap, your cat will need to wear a collar featuring an RF chip, IR or magnet. Therefore any animal without a special collar cannot access or leave your home. Again this is a fairly simple form of cat flap, since any other cat in the Droitwich area who's got a similar model of collar could possible gain access to your property. An improvement to this equipment is a RF cat flap and collar system which provides a unique identifier which can be programmed by the home owner.

The next level in feline access security is to use a cat flap which identifies your cat's own micro-chip. The memory of these cat flaps can be programmed with one or even multiple microchip details (if you've got more than one cat), to give exclusive access. When your cat comes in the vicinity of the flap, it unlocks and allows solely your micro-chipped pets to use the exit/entrance.

Regardless of what cat flap you buy, it must be capable of being locked in place. The majority of cat flaps sold currently have a four way locking system. This means that it has the capability to enable only access into your home, permit exit only, be fully locked, or be put in 2-way exit and entry mode. This offers you a range of choices on how your cat flap operates at all times of the day and night time. The wherewithal to carry out specific functions according to the time of day, and based on yours and your cat's needs is also a possibility with some of the more advanced brands of cat flap.

Installing a cat flap yourself can be really easy if you have a solid wood door, and decent DIY skills. However, if it has to be fitted in a double glazed window or in a reinforced PVC door, you should not even attempt to tackle it by yourself. This kind of installation requires the attention of a pro, and there are specialist cat flap fitters and talented odd job men who are happy to accept such work.

INSTALLING CAT FLAPS IN DROITWICH

Double Glazing Installation - If your new cat flap has to be fitted into a double glazing door or window panel, and your appointed "tradesman" endeavours to drill a hole in it, stop the work straight away and give them their marching orders. A new cat flap can't be mounted into an existing double glazing window pane or door panel. Making a hole in the double glazing destroys not simply the security and strength of the panel, but it removes the insulating attributes too. The double glazing will be made unsound, and it shouldn't be done in any circumstances.

A professional cat flap installer will take measurements of your current double glazed unit and have a local glazing firm make a new one. To ensure that your cat flap can be perfectly fitted into it, this new double glazing panel will arrive with a pre-cut hole as part of its construction. This might take a week or more to produce, but it's the only way to fit a cat flap in an existing patio or double glazed door. As soon as your new panel of glass is delivered, the installer will take out the old one, and swap it for the new "cat flap ready" one. The fitting of your cat flap will then be undertaken.

Exterior Wooden Doors - Wooden doors are, as stated previously, the easiest options for cat flap installation in Droitwich. If you're uncertain about making a hole in your front or back door, it's probably a good idea to contact a specialist to complete the task for you. This should provide you with the reassurance that you are going to wind up with a professionally installed cat friendly flap, and that the job has been completed properly.

uPVC Door Panels - uPVC doors can be sometimes be suitable for a cat flap. You or your fitter will need to establish what the interior construction of you door actually is, since for added security some uPVC door panels are made with a steel lining. The easiest type of cat flap installation is in doors having a single panel, therefore if you've got a uPVC door with slatted vertical panels, it might be easier and cheaper overall to replace the slatted panel with a one-piece panel.

Wall Installation - If you do not really wish to cut holes in your doors, for aesthetic or safety reasons, you could have a cat flap installed on an external wall. This type of installment is undoubtedly best left to the pros, because it requires a lot more equipment and skill to accomplish. You can opt for a straightforward tunnel style, or perhaps a right angle model which permits entry via a pillar. With this type of installation a plastic or metal, open ended square insert is fitted into a square shaped hole cut into your selected wall. An appropriate cat flap can then be installed on both ends of the hole.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Droitwich - If you've already got a cat flap fitted on your wall, window or door, but it's damaged or not functioning properly, the existing hole can hopefully be re-used for the installation of a replacement. You local cat flap installer should be able to take off the old cat flap, without harming the wall, window or door, and install a brand new flap in its place for your cat.

Before fitting the new cat flap in double glazing which has been pre-cut, making certain that the existing glass has been manufactured and installed correctly is essential. If it's found that the previous installation was a bodge up, the pane will have to be removed and substituted to avoid any security and safety problems with the new cat flap.
