Cat Flap Fitter Maghull

Cat Flap Fitter Maghull Merseyside (L31): Fitting a cat flap to an outside wall or door in your home in Maghull, will allow it to live a happy life and enjoy it's own bit of independence and freedom. When constantly kept inside, cats as with people, will get irritated and grumpy. Allowing your pet access to the outside world via a cat flap can help to keep them mentally and physically fit. However, what kind of cat flap is better in your case?

The simplest type of cat flap is basically that. A hole cut in a door with a bendable piece of material placed over it, to provide protection from the weather, but allow the cat climb through. The majority of Maghull cat owners would doubtless prefer something a bit more weatherproof and secure for an external door to their home, although this could be acceptable for a garden fence panel or outhouse door.

Because this solution can allow other cats or creatures to enter your home, it isn't at all ideal, though it can be improved on to some degree by holding the flap in position with the addition of a magnetic strip.

A step up from the magnetic strip style are infra-red or RF chip, magnetically operated cat flaps. With these, either a magnet, IR or RF chip will be encased in your cat's collar. No animal will be able to leave or get into your property unless it is equipped with this special collar. The fact that any other cat in the Maghull area who has a similar collar can access your property, is the downside with this type of cat flap. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the upgraded version of this equipment because they can be programmed by the owner of the cat to recognise a unique identifier, specific to your pet.

Fitting a cat flap which can be operated by your pet's own micro-chip, is the next level in entry gadgets for felines in Maghull. You need to enter the number of your cat's micro-chip into the cat flap's memory (which is powered by batteries), and if you have more than one cat it will allow multiple entries. The flap will be unlocked when your cat is close-by, only allowing exit or entry to animals that are microchipped.

Whatever cat flap you buy, it should be capable of being locked in position. Most cat flaps sold today boast a 4-way locking system. Which means that the cat flap can enable admission into your home only, be fully locked, allow exit from your home only, or be set for 2-way entry and exit. This provides you with a range of alternatives on exactly how your cat flap operates any time of the day and night time. The wherewithal to carry out specific functions according to the time of day, and based on yours and your cat's needs is also an option with some of the higher end brands of cat flap.

If you have a wood door on your property in Maghull, installing you own cat flap shouldn't be that hard. Although, if it has to be installed into a reinforced PVC door or in a double glazed window panel, you should under no circumstances even attempt to tackle it by yourself. This sort of installation requires the attention of a pro, and there are specialist cat flap installers and talented handymen who are glad to undertake such work.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN MAGHULL

Double Glazing Installations - If you call in a so-called "tradesman" who, while endeavouring to fit your cat flap, starts to drill a hole in a double glazed panel, immediately send them on their way. A new cat flap cannot be installed into an existing double glazing door panel or window pane. Any sort of double glazed unit will be ruined by drilling a hole in it, and will damage its security, strength and thermal insulation properties. Actually, it makes your glazing unsound and it shouldn't ever be attempted.

A professional cat flap installer will measure up the existing double glazing unit and have a local glazing firm make a new purpose made pane. So the cat flap can be neatly installed into it, this new glazed pane will be provided with a hole pre-cut as a part of its construction. This is really the only way to fit a cat flap into a pre-existing patio or double glazed door, even though it may take one or two weeks to manufacture. After construction, your old glass pane can be removed, and the new modified one put in its place. It's now possible to install and set up your new cat flap.

External Wooden Doors - The least complicated option for installing a new cat flap in Maghull, as was mentioned earlier in this article, are solid wooden door panels. It's usually advisable to employ the expert services of a specialist cat flap fitter or carpenter, if you're dubious about cutting a hole in your front door. This should provide you with the peace of mind that you are going to end up with an expertly installed cat friendly flap, and that the project has been undertaken in the right and proper way.

uPVC Door Panels - uPVC doors can be sometimes be suitable for a cat flap. Having said that, some uPVC door panels have a steel lining for extra security, which might cause issues. The simplest type of installation is in doors with a single panel, therefore if you have a uPVC door with slatted vertical panels, it may be cheaper and easier in the long run to exchange the slatted panel for a one-piece panel.

Wall Installation - It's also a possibility to have a cat flap mounted on an exterior wall of your home in Maghull, if you do not want to cut chunks out of your doors, whether for aesthetic or safety reasons. A cat flap entrance in a wall calls for a little more skill and equipment to fit, so it is definitely better left to a specialist. You can pick out a straight-through tunnel design, or maybe a right angle model that enables access through a pillar. With this kind of installation a metal or plastic, square open ended insert is fitted into a square hole neatly cut out of your specified wall. A cat flap can then be attached to both ends of the hole.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Maghull - If your wall, door or window is already fitted with a cat flap, but it is not working properly, or is damaged, it is quite possible to fit a replacement into the existing hole. Your cat flap installer will be able to take off the old cat flap, without harming the window, door or wall, and fit a brand new flap in its place for your cat.

If the substitute cat flap is being installed in a pre cut hole in a double glazing panel, you must make certain that the existing glass has been fabricated, cut and installed correctly. If it is found that this isn't the case, and the previous owners have cut corners to install their cat flap, the panel must be taken out and replaced to avoid any safety and security issues.

Cat Flap Weatherproofing

Maintaining the comfort and safety of outdoor and indoor cats, cat flap weatherproofing is important. Both the feline and the occupants benefit from a dry and warm environment due to a well-weatherproofed cat flap, which prevents rain, wind and cold draughts from seeping into the house. For a tight barrier against the weather, choose cat flaps with superior quality seals and insulating materials. In addition, the entrance can be shielded from harsh climatic conditions by installing a weatherproof tunnel extension. Routine maintenance, including checking seals for damage and deterioration, guarantees the cat flap's effectiveness in providing a comfy and weather-protected space for your furry companion. (97531)
