This uncomplicated design can be to some degree improved on with magnetic strips to hold the flap in place, however it is still far from ideal as it allows other cats or creatures to enter your house.

A step up from the magnetic strip pattern are infra-red or RF chip, magnetically controlled cat flaps. With this form of cat flap, your cat will have to wear a collar featuring a magnet, RF or IR chip. Subsequently, any animal that hasn't got a special collar can't leave or get into your home. The drawback is that any other moggy in the area that has a similar style of collar can easily get into your property when using this type of cat flap. Even these cat flaps can be upgraded to a certain degree with an RF cat flap and collar system offering an owner programmed unique identifier.

Picking a cat flap that can identify your pet's own micro-chip, is the next level in entry gadgets for felines in Iver.

A new cat flap can not be installed into an existing double glazed window pane or door panel. Drilling or cutting into any sort of double glazing will ruin its security and strength, along with its thermal attributes. The double glazing will be made unsafe, and it should never be attempted in any circumstances whatsoever.

It will be necessary to obtain a new double glazing unit made especially for this purpose by a glazing firm, and your local Iver cat flap installer will measure your existing panel and order the new one. As a part of its construction this new glazed unit will have a hole pre-cut, which the cat flap can be fitted snugly into. This is really the only way to fit a cat flap in a pre-existing double glazed or patio door, although it can take a couple of weeks to manufacture. When your new panel of glass arrives, the fitter will take out the old unit, and replace it with the new "cat flap ready" pane. It will now be possible to install your new cat flap.
