Cat Flap Fitter East Leake Nottinghamshire (LE12): The installation of a cat flap to an external door or wall in your house in East Leake, will enable it to live a happy life and enjoy it's own bit of independence and freedom. When kept inside, cats much like people, will get crabby and irritated. Having a cat that is both physically and mentally fit, is one of the main benefits of giving your pet access to the world outside by means of a cat flap. So, you're sold on the idea, but exactly what is perfect type of cat flap for your pet?
The most basic type of cat flap, is merely that. A hole cut in a door with a flexible sheet of material placed over it, to give protection from the elements, but allow the cat climb through. While this may be acceptable in an outhouse or shed door, most cat owners in East Leake would favour something a bit more secure and weatherproof for an exterior door to their property.

This uncomplicated model can be to some degree improved on with a magnetic strip to hold the flap in position, but it's still a long way off being perfect as it enables other cats or animals to get into your home.
Moving on from a basic magnetic strip are magnetically controlled, RF chip or infra-red models of cat flap. With this kind of cat flap, your cat will need to wear a collar featuring an IR, RF chip or magnet. This means that any animal that does not have a special collar cannot leave or access your home. Once again this is a relatively simple type of cat flap, as any other moggy in the East Leake area who's got a similar collar could possible gain access to your property. An upgrade to this device is a RF cat flap/collar system which includes a unique identifier which can be programmed by the cat's owner.
The next level in feline entry security is to use the type of cat flap that can be triggered by your pet's own micro-chip. You have to enter the details of your cat's micro-chip into the memory the cat flap (which is powered by batteries), and if you've got more than one cat it will take multiple entries. The flap is unlocked when your cat is in close proximity, only allowing entry or exit to animals that are microchipped.

When you are buying a cat flap, you should make sure it is of a type that can be locked. The majority of cat flaps sold nowadays boast a 4-way locking mechanism. This allows your cat flap to permit only entry into your home, enable only exit from your home, be fully locked, or have two-way entry and exit functionality. This offers complete control over the functioning of your cat flap both throughout the day and during the night time. In keeping with yours and your cat's needs, there is even the option to carry out specific functions in accordance with the time of day, with a number of the top-end devices.
If you're pretty decent at DIY, fitting your own cat flap should not be that difficult, as long as you have a solid timber door on your East Leake home. Under no circumstances should you attempt to install a cat flap in a reinforced PVC door or in a double glazed window panel. These situations call for the skills and expertise of an experienced cat flap fitter or carpenter, who is sure to have have all the equipment and knowledge for this type of installation.
INSTALLING CAT FLAPS IN EAST LEAKE
Double Glazing Installation - If your new cat flap has to be mounted on a double glazed door or window panel, and your hired "tradesman" attempts to drill a hole in it, stop them right away and give them the boot. It is simply not possible to install a new cat flap into a double glazing door panel or window pane. Drilling or cutting into any kind of double glazing will ruin its strength and security, together with its thermal properties. In fact, it renders the glazing unsafe and it should never be attempted.
An experienced cat flap installer will take the measurements of the existing double glazing unit and have a local glazing company make a new purpose made one. As a part of its structure this new pane will have a hole pre-cut, which the cat flap can be installed neatly into. This could take a couple of weeks to produce, but it is really the only way to fit a cat flap into an existing patio or double glazed door. Once you've taken possession of your new modified panel of glass, the old one can be taken out and the new unit fitted. It will now be possible to install the new cat flap.
External Wooden Doors - As stated earlier in this article, wooden door panels are the least complicated alternative with regards to installing a new cat flap on your property in East Leake. If you are a little dubious about creating a hole in your door, you might be happier getting in touch with a specialist carpenter or cat flap fitter instead. A project like this should not be expensive and will provide you with peace of mind that your pet has an expertly installed flap.

uPVC Door Panels - uPVC doors can be sometimes be suitable for a cat flap. You or your installer will have to determine what the internal construction of you door actually is, because for extra security certain uPVC door panels are manufactured with a steel lining. A one-piece door panel allows for simpler installation, so if you have a slatted type uPVC door panel, it might be cheaper to exchange this panel for a single pane style.
Wall Installation - It is also a possibility to get a cat flap installed on an exterior wall of your property in East Leake, if you do not want to cut holes in your doors, whether for aesthetic or safety reasons. A wall cat flap entrance requires a bit more equipment and skill to install, therefore it's certainly best left to a professional. The majority of wall cat flap installations are a simple straight tunnelled style, however right angular access through a pillar is also an option. A neat square shaped hole will be cut through your selected wall, into which is inserted a metal or plastic, square open ended tube. Both ends of the hole are then fitted with an appropriate cat flap so that your feline friend can get in and out of your house whenever it desires.
Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in East Leake - If your door, wall or window is already fitted with a cat flap, but it isn't working, or is damaged, it is entirely possible to fit a replacement into the current hole. A reliable cat flap fitter in East Leake will be capable of removing the old,unwanted cat flap, and fix a brand new one in its place without damaging the window, wall or door.
If the substitute cat flap is being installed in a pre cut hole in a double glazed panel, you must make sure that the glass has been fabricated, cut and installed accurately. The glass panel will need to be removed and substituted to avoid any security and safety problems, if it becomes obvious that this is not the case and corners were cut in the earlier installation.
