Cat Flap Fitter Holmes Chapel

Cat Flap Fitter Holmes Chapel Cheshire (CW4): To provide your cat with the freedom and independence it needs to live a life of contentment, you could fit a cat flap to an external door or wall in your Holmes Chapel house. When constantly kept inside, cats much like people, will get irritated and grumpy. Allowing your cat easy access to outside world via a cat flap can also help in keeping them mentally and physically fit. If this sounds like a good option for you, what kind of cat flap should you opt for?

The most rudimentry kind of cat flap is essentially that. A hole is cut in an exterior door and a flexible material is hung over it to give a bit of protection from the elements. Most cat owners in Holmes Chapel would no doubt favour something a bit more secure and weatherproof for an external door to their house, although this may be suitable for an outhouse door or garden fence panel.

Since this option can allow other cats or animals to enter your home, it isn't at all recommended, though it can be enhanced a bit by holding the flap in position by adding a magnetic strip.

Stepping up from a basic magnetic strip are magnetically controlled, infra-red or RF chip models of cat flap. With this kind of cat flap, your cat will need to wear a collar fitted with a magnet, IR or RF chip. Unless an animal is fitted with one of these special collars, it will not be able to trigger the flap and access or leave your home, thus avoiding some undesirable visitors. The point that any other cat in the neighbourhood who has a similar style of collar can access your home, is the drawback with this type of cat flap. An enhancement to this device is an RF cat flap and collar system which provides a unique identifier which can be programmed by the home owner.

A model of cat flap which is can be operated by your pet's own microchip, is the next level in Holmes Chapel feline access security. The micro-chip details are programmed into the memory of the battery powered cat flap (multiple entries can be made if you have more than one pet). The flap will be unfastened anytime your cat is in close proximity, only allowing entry or exit to animals that are microchipped.

Whenever you're buying a cat flap, you must make certain that it is of a design that can be locked. For added security, nearly all cat flaps have a four way locking system nowadays. This makes it possible for your cat flap to permit admission into your property only, be locked fully, enable only exit from your home, or have two way entry and exit functionality. This will give you choices for all times of day and night, to control exactly how your cat flap operates. Some more expensive models can be set to carry out particular functions in accordance with the time of day, based on your cat's and your requirements.

If you are pretty good at do-it-yourself, fitting a cat flap shouldn't be too much of a challenge, as long as you've got a wooden door on your Holmes Chapel home. Under no circumstances should you try to fit a cat flap in a reinforced PVC door or in a double glazed window. This type of installation calls for the attention of a professional, and there are dedicated cat flap fitters and skilled handymen who will be glad to take on such a task.

A one-piece door panel allows for easier installation, so if you have a uPVC door that is slatted, it may be more cost effective to exchange this panel for a single pane model.

Wall Installation - If, for security or aesthetic reasons, you do not want to have a chunk cut out of one of your doors, you could choose to install a cat flap in an exterior wall of your house in Holmes Chapel. This type of installment is certainly better left to the pros, because it calls for much more skill and equipment to execute. You'll find there are several possibilities for this installation, including a straight-through tunnel version, or a right angular (through pillar) pattern.
