Cat Flap Fitter Harlow

Cat Flap Fitter Harlow Essex (CM20): An ideal way to give your cat more independence and improve it's overally quality of life is to install a cat flap on an exterior wall or door of your home in Harlow. Cats tend to get irritated and grouchy when kept indoors, and not able to roam free. When granted instant access to the world outside with a cat flap, your beloved cat has a far better chance of staying healthy and well. If you opt to go with the cat flap option, you'll then have to decide what is the best type of cat flap for you.

The most fundamental style of cat flap, is merely that. A hole is cut into a door and a flexible material is hung over it to give protection from the elements. Most Harlow cat owners would doubtless prefer something a bit more secure and weatherproof for an outside door to their house, although this could be acceptable for a fence panel or outhouse door.

This uncomplicated model can be improved on slightly with magnetic strips to hold the flap in position, but it is still a long way off being ideal because it enables other animals or cats to enter your home.

The next step up from the magnetic strip style are infra-red or RF chip, magnetically controlled cat flaps. With this kind of cat flap, your cat will need to wear a collar boasting an IR, RF chip or magnet. Unless an animal is fitted with one of these special collars, it will be unable to open the flap and leave or get into your property, thus keeping out some unwelcome visitors. Once again this is a pretty simple type of cat flap, because any other moggy in the Harlow area who's got a similar style of collar could possible access your home. An upgrade to this device is a RF cat flap and collar system which contains a unique identifier which can be programmed by the householder.

The type of cat flap that's able to identify your cat's own microchip, is the next stage in Harlow feline entry security. The memory of these battery powered cat flaps can be programmed with one or even multiple microchip numbers (if you have several cats), to give exclusive access. When your cat comes in the vicinity of the flap, it unlocks and allows just your micro-chipped pets to use the exit/entrance.

Being able to lock it in position is vital no matter what cat flap you are purchasing. Currently, most cat flaps available on the market have a four way locking mechanism for added security. This means that the cat flap can enable exit only, be locked fully, allow access into your property only, or be set for two way exit and entry. This gives you a range of choices on exactly how your cat flap works at all times of the day and night. A few of the more advanced models can be set to perform particular functions according to the time of day, in keeping with yours and your pet's requirements.

Putting in a cat flap by yourself can be fairly simple if you have a solid wood door, and decent do-it-yourself abilities. On no account should you attempt to fit a cat flap in a reinforced PVC door or in a double glazed window panel. These kinds of fixtures call for a professional installation from a dependable cat flap installer or odd job man with the appropriate skills and equipment.

INSTALLING CAT FLAPS IN HARLOW

Double Glazing Installations - If you happen to hire somebody who attempts to drill a hole in a double glazed panel to put in your new cat flap, stop them right away and request that they leave. It isn't possible to fit a new cat flap into a double glazing window pane or door panel. Making a hole in your double glazing destroys not simply the security and strength of the panel, but it takes away the insulating properties too. It should under no circumstances be attempted and renders the double glazing unsound.

It is necessary to obtain a new double glazing panel made specially for this purpose by a glazing company, and your local Harlow cat flap fitter will take the measurements of your existing panel and order a brand new one. This new glazed panel will have a pre-cut hole as a part of its construction where the cat flap will be installed. This can take one or two weeks to manufacture, however it's the only way to fit a cat flap into a pre-existing double glazed or patio door. When your new pane of glass is delivered, the installer will remove the old unit, and swap it for the brand new "cat flap ready" panel. Your cat flap will then be put in.

Exterior Wooden Doors - Solid timber door panels are, as I already stated, the simplest options for cat flap installation in Harlow. It is generally safer to call on a professional handyman or cat flap fitter, if you are in any way uncertain about making a big hole in your back or front door. This type of undertaking won't be too costly and is really worth doing properly, if getting your cat flap professionally installed offers you that added reassurance.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can be mounted into uPVC doors in most cases. It pays to know the interior construction, since some door panels incorporate a steel lining for added security. The designs of door with a one piece panel are the easiest for installing cat flaps, so if yours has got a slatted style door panel, it might be advisable to replace this with a single panel.

Wall Installation - If, for security or aesthetic reasons, you do not wish to have a hole cut into one of your doors, you could elect to install your cat flap in an exterior wall of your house. A wall cat flap entrance requires a little more skill and equipment to fit, so it's certainly better left to an expert. You will find there are a number of options for this sort of installation, including a straight-through tunnel design, or a right angular (through pillar) configuration. With this kind of installation a metal or plastic, square open ended insert is fitted into a square shaped hole neatly made into your specified wall. The cat flap you have chosen can then be attached at both ends to permit your feline friend to come and go as it wishes.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Harlow - If your wall, window or door already has a cat flap installed, but it has stopped working, or is damaged, it's possible to mount a replacement over the current hole. You local cat flap installer should be able to take off the old cat flap, without harming the window, wall or door, and install a new flap for your cat.

When the cat flap installation involves insertion into a pre-cut hole in a double glazing pane, it is essential to make sure that this was previously done accurately, before fitting the new flap. The glass panel will have to be removed and exchanged to avoid any security and safety problems, if you discover this is not the case and a bodge job was made of the previous installation.
