Cat Flap Fitter Feltham

Cat Flap Fitter Feltham Greater London (TW13): To allow your cat the independence and freedom that it needs to live a happy life, you could install a cat flap to an external wall or door in your Feltham home. Cats tend to get grouchy and irritated when kept inside, and not allowed to roam. Giving your furry friend easy access to world outside by means of a cat flap can also help in keeping them physically and mentally fit. So, you're sold on the idea, but precisely what is best style of cat flap for your beloved pet?

The most rudimentry type of cat flap is basically that. A hole in a door with a flexible sheet of material fixed over it, to give protection from the weather, but allow the cat move through. Of course, this is extremely basic, and will rarely good enough for most Feltham cat owners, who would doubtless prefer something a bit more secure and weatherproof for an exterior door to their house, although it might be acceptable for a shed or outhouse door.

This basic design can be slightly improved upon with magnetic strips to keep the flap in place, however it's still far from perfect since it allows other animals or cats a means by which to get into your property.

A step up from the magnetic strip design are RF chip or infra-red, magnetically operated cat flaps. With these, either an IR, RF chip or magnet will be sewn into your cat's collar. No animal is going to be able to get into or leave your property unless it is equipped with this special collar. Again this is a relatively simple form of cat flap, as any other moggy in the area that has a similar collar may be able to access your property. Even these cat flaps can be improved to some extent with an RF cat flap/collar system offering a user programmed unique identifier. An additional layer of security and control is achieved, guaranteeing that only your furry companion gets access.

The next stage in feline entrance security is to use the kind of cat flap that identifies your cat's own micro-chip. The micro-chip details are entered into the cat flap's memory (multiple entries can be made if you've got more than one cat). Whenever your cat passes close to the flap, it unlocks and permits just your micro-chipped pets to use the entrance/exit.

Regardless which cat flap you purchase, it should have the ability to be locked in place. Currently, almost all cat flaps available on the market feature a four way locking mechanism for added flexibility. This means that the cat flap can permit exit from your house only, be fully locked, enable admission into your house only, or be set for two way entry and exit. This gives you choices for all times of day and night, to control how your cat flap functions. Some more expensive cat flaps can be programmed to perform specific functions in accordance with the time of day, based on your cat's and your needs.

Putting in a cat flap on your own can be really simple if you've got a solid timber door, and reasonable do-it-yourself capabilities. Not in any circumstances should you try and fit a cat flap in a reinforced PVC door or in a double glazed window panel. This kind of installation requires the attention of a professional, and there are dedicated cat flap installers and skilled carpenters who are delighted to take on such a task.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN FELTHAM

Double Glazing Installations - If your cat flap needs to be mounted on a double glazed panel, and your hired "tradesman" tries to drill a hole in it, stop the job right away and give them the boot. It's just not possible to install a new cat flap into a double glazed window pane or door panel. Making a hole in the double glazing damages not just the strength and security of the panel, but it takes away the thermal insulation attributes as well. In fact, it renders the glazing unsound and it should never be done.

A reputable Feltham cat flap fitter will diligently take the measurements of your current panel and order a purpose made one from a local glazing company. As a part of its construction this new pane will have a hole pre-cut, which your cat flap can be fitted perfectly into. You may have a one or two week waiting period for this pane to be manufactured, but if you want a cat flap installed in a pre-existing double glazed or patio door, this is really the only way to do it. Once you've received your new modified panel of glass, the old one can be taken out and the new one installed. It's now possible to install and set up your new cat flap.

Exterior Wooden Doors - Wooden door panels are, as we stated earlier, the easiest options for new cat flap installation in Feltham. It's normally wise to contact a professional handyman or cat flap fitter, if you're at all unsure about making a hole in your front door. This will give you the peace of mind that you are going to end up with a professionally fitted cat friendly flap, and that the project has been accomplished correctly and without causing damage to your door.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can generally be installed into uPVC doors. Having said that, some uPVC door panels are steel lined for added security, which may cause some issues. The simplest kind of installation is in doors having one single panel, therefore if you've got a uPVC door with vertical slatted panels, it might be easier and cheaper in the long run to replace the slatted pane with a one-piece panel.

Wall Installation - If you don't really wish to have a hole cut in your doors, for aesthetic or security reasons, you can opt for a cat flap to be installed on an external wall. Calling for a lot more expertise and equipment, a wall cat flap installment is certainly best left to a specialist, if it's to be completed successfully. You can decide on a straight through tunnel style, or maybe a right angle version which permits entry via a pillar. This installation involves a neat square hole being cut through your wall, into which a metal or plastic, square open ended tube is inserted. An appropriate cat flap is then installed on both ends of the hole.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Feltham - If you already have a cat flat, but it is either broken or not working properly, the current hole in your window, door or wall can be used for a replacement as long as the new flap is of a similar size. An expert Feltham cat flap fitter will be glad to remove your old unit and swap it for a new cat flap without inflicting any damage on the door, window or wall on which it is secured.

When the installation involves insertion into a pre-cut hole in a double glazed panel, it will be necessary to make certain that this was previously done accurately, before fixing the new cat flap. If it's found this is not the case, and corners were cut in the original installation, the glass pane will need to be taken out and replaced with a new one to avoid any security and safety problems.
