Cat Flap Fitter Linwood

Cat Flap Fitter Linwood Scotland (PA3): Fitting a cat flap to an external wall or door in your home in Linwood, will allow it to live a life of contentment and enjoy it's own little bit of independence. Just like people, when kept inside, cats will sometimes start to show signs of irritability and frustration. Having easy access to outside world via a cat flap will help your cat to stay fit, both physically and mentally. Needless to say, that's not the whole story, as there are several types of cat flap, and determining which design is best for you and your cat is not always easy.

The simplest type of cat flap is basically that. A hole is cut in an exterior door and a flexible material is hung over it to give some protection from the elements. Although this might be suitable for a shed or outhouse door, the majority of Linwood cat owners would doubtless favour something a little more secure and weatherproof for a main door to their home.

This standard design is still a long way from being perfect since it allows other creatures or cats a way to enter into your house, however it can be improved on to some degree by adding a magnetic strip to hold the flap in position.

The next step up from the magnetic strip design are infra-red or RF chip, magnetically operated cat flaps. This involves your cat wearing a collar that's got either a magnet, IR or RF chip encased in it. No animal is going to be able to leave or access your property unless it is equipped with one of these special collars. The point that any other cat in the neighbourhood who's got a similar model of collar can still gain access to your property, is the drawback with this kind of cat flap. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the upgraded version of this equipment because they can be programmed by the home owner to recognise a unique identifier, specific to your cat.

The next stage in feline access security is to fit a model of cat flap which recognises your pet's micro-chip. The memory of these battery powered cat flaps can be programmed with one or even multiple microchip details (if you've got more than one cat), to give exclusive access. Exit and entry can only be achieved by micro-chipped animals, and the flap will be unfastened whenever you cat is nearby.

Being able to lock it in place is essential no matter what cat flap you are buying. For extra flexibility, the majority of cat flaps boast a four way locking mechanism nowadays. Which means that it's got the capability to allow exit from your property only, allow only entry into your home, be fully locked, or be put in 2-way exit and entry mode. This will give you choices for all times of night and day, to control precisely how your cat flap works. The wherewithal to carry out different functions according to the time of day, and based on your cat's and your needs is also a possibility with some of the higher end models of cat flap.

If you're fairly good at DIY, putting in your own cat flap should not be all that difficult, if you have a solid wood door on your home in Linwood. Not in any circumstances should you try to fit a cat flap in a double glazed window panel or in a reinforced uPVC door. These situations call for the skills and expertise of a reputable cat flap fitter or odd job man, who is sure to have have all the knowledge and tools for this sort of installation.

INSTALLING CAT FLAPS IN LINWOOD

Double Glazing Installation - If you happen to employ someone who tries to drill a hole in your double glazing to install your cat flap, stop them at once and ask them to leave. A new cat flap cannot be fitted into a pre-existing double glazing window pane or door panel. Any sort of double glazing will be ruined by drilling a hole in it, and will diminish its strength, insulating attributes and security. In fact, it makes your glazing unsafe and it should never be attempted.

A specialist cat flap fitter will measure up the existing double glazing pane and have a local glazing firm knock up a new one. So that the cat flap can be neatly installed into it, this new double glazing pane will arrive with a hole pre-cut as an integral part of its structure. You might have a one or two week wait for this special pane to be made, but if it's necessary to have a cat flap installed into an existing double glazed or patio door, this is really the only way to accomplish it. Once you've acquired your new glass panel, the old one can be taken out and the new pane installed. It will now be possible to fit your new cat flap.

Exterior Wooden Doors - The simplest option for new cat flap installations in Linwood, as was mentioned earlier in this article, are timber doors. It's normally wise to hire the services of an experienced handyman or cat flap fitter, if you're in any way nervous about making a hole in your back or front door. This sort of project will not be all that expensive and is well worth doing correctly, if getting your cat flap installed by a professional provides you with that additional reassurance.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can generally be installed into uPVC doors. It is necessary to know the internal construction, as some uPVC door panels can have a steel lining for extra security. The easiest type of installation is in doors having a single panel, therefore if you have a uPVC door with slatted vertical panels, it might be easier and cheaper in the long run to replace the slatted pane with a one piece panel.

Wall Installation - If, for aesthetic or security reasons, you don't want to have a chunk cut out of a door, you could always decide to install the cat flap in an exterior wall of your property in Linwood. This type of installment is certainly better left to the pros, because it calls for considerably more equipment and skill to execute. You can pick out a straight through tunnel style, or maybe a right angle version which enables access through a pillar. This installation entails a square shaped hole being cut through your wall, into which a metal or plastic, square open ended insert is fitted. A cat flap of your choice is then mounted on either end to enable your furry friend to come in and out as it wishes.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Linwood - If you've already got a cat flap fitted on your window, wall or door, but it is damaged or not working properly, the existing hole can, with luck, be re-used for installing a new one. A trusted cat flap fitter in Linwood will be capable of removing your old,unwanted cat flap, and fit a new one as a replacement without harming the surrounding door, window or wall.

If the replacement cat flap is to be fitted in a pre cut hole in a double glazed pane, you must make certain that the glass has been cut and installed correctly. If it's found that the previous installation was a bodge job, the glass will need to be taken out and replaced with a new one to avoid any security and safety issues with the new cat flap.
