This simple design can be slightly improved upon with magnetic strips to hold the flap in position, but it's still a long way from being perfect since it allows other creatures or cats to enter your house.

A step up from the magnetic strip style are RF chip or infra-red, magnetically controlled cat flaps. With this form of cat flap, your cat will need to wear a collar boasting a magnet, RF or IR chip. No animal is going to be able to get into or leave your house unless it's equipped with one of these special collars. Again this is a fairly simple kind of cat flap, because any other cat in the area that has a similar model of collar could possible access your home. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the best version of these devices as they can be programmed by the user to recognise a unique identifier, distinct to your pet. Your furry companion is the sole one to gain access, offering an additional layer of security and control.

A model of cat flap that is can be triggered by your cat's micro-chip, is the next stage in feline entrance security. The micro-chip details are programmed into the cat flap's memory (multiple entries can be made if you've got more than one cat). When your cat comes into close vicinity of the flap, it will unlock and allow only your micro-chipped pets to enter or exit.

Double Glazing Installations - If your cat flap needs to be installed in a double glazing panel, and your chosen "tradesman" tries to drill a hole in it, stop the work straight away and give them the boot. A new cat flap can not be installed into an existing double glazed window pane or door panel. Making a hole in your double glazing destroys not only the security and strength of the glazing, but it removes the insulation properties as well. Your double glazing will be made unsound, and it should never be attempted under any circumstances whatsoever.

A reliable Hednesford cat flap fitter will carefully get the dimensions of your existing unit and order a ready prepared one from a local glazing firm. As a part of its construction this new pane will have a pre-cut hole, which your cat flap can be installed perfectly into. This can take two weeks or so to manufacture, but it is the only way to install a cat flap into an existing patio or double glazed door. After fabrication, your old glass can be removed, and the new one put in. The cat flap will then be fitted.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can be installed into uPVC doors in many cases. It pays to know the internal construction, because some uPVC door panels are steel lined for additional security. The simplest type of cat flap installation is in doors with one single panel, subsequently 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, for aesthetic or safety reasons, you do not wish to have a chunk cut out of your door, you could decide to install your cat flap into an external wall of your property. Requiring far more equipment and skill, a wall cat flap installment is undoubtedly better left to a specialist, if it is to be accomplished successfully.

A square hole will need to be made through your wall, into which is inserted a plastic or metal, open ended square tube. An appropriate cat flap can then be mounted on each side of the hole.
