Cat Flap Fitter Selsey

Cat Flap Fitter Selsey West Sussex (PO20): A good way to enhance your cat's independence and boost it's overally quality of life is to fit a cat flap on an outside door or wall of your property in Selsey. Just like people, when kept inside for long periods of time, cats will typically start to show signs of frustration and anxiety. When your cat is allowed easy access to the great outdoors by way of a cat flap, there's a better chance of it staying both physically and mentally fit and healthy. If you choose to go with the cat flap option, you'll then have to decide what is the best type of cat flap for you.

The most rudimentry kind of cat flap is basically that. A hole is cut in a door and a bendable material is fixed over the gap to give protection from the elements. Of course, this is very basic, and won't be adequate for most Selsey cat owners, who would prefer something a little more secure and weatherproof for an external door to their property, although it might be okay for an outhouse door or fence panel.

As this solution allows other cats or creatures to enter your house, it is not at all recommended, though it can be improved on a little by holding the flap in place by adding magnetic strips.

The next step up from the magnetic strip design are RF chip or infra-red, magnetically controlled cat flaps. With this kind of cat flap, your cat will have to wear a collar fitted with a magnet, RF or IR chip. Therefore any animal that hasn't got one of these special collars can't access or leave your property. The drawback here is that any other cat in the area who has a similar model of collar could perchance access your home when using this sort of cat flap. Even these cat flaps can be enhanced to a certain degree with an RF cat flap and collar system containing an owner programmed unique identifier.

The next stage in feline entry security is to fit the kind of cat flap that recognises your cat's micro-chip. You have to enter the unique number of your cat's micro-chip into the cat flap's memory (which is battery powered), and if you have several cats it will allow multiple entries. When your cat comes in the vicinity of the flap, it unlocks and permits only your microchipped pets to enter/exit.

Regardless of what cat flap you buy, it should be capable of being locked in place. These days, almost all cat flaps available on the market feature a four way locking mechanism for added security. Which means that the cat flap can be locked fully, permit only exit from your home, permit access into your home only, or be set for two-way exit and entry. This will give you solutions for all times of day and night, to control how your cat flap operates. The ability to carry out different functions according to the time of day, and in line with your pet's and your needs is also an option with some of the high end brands of cat flap.

If you have a timber door in your home in Selsey, fitting a cat flap yourself shouldn't be too difficult. On no account should you try to fit a cat flap in a reinforced uPVC door or in a double glazed window. This sort of installation requires the attention of a pro, and there are dedicated cat flap installers and skilled odd job men who are glad to undertake such a task.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN SELSEY

Double Glazing Installation - If you call in a "tradesman" who, while endeavouring to fit your new cat flap, starts to drill a hole in a double glazed panel, send them packing immediately. A new cat flap can not be installed into a pre-existing double glazing window pane or door panel. Any kind of double glazed unit will be damaged by drilling a hole in it, and will diminish its security, strength and thermal insulation properties. It should in no circumstances be attempted and will render the double glazing unsafe.

A trustworthy Selsey cat flap fitter will diligently get the dimensions of your current panel and order a custom-made one from a local glazing company. So that the cat flap can be neatly installed into it, this new double glazing panel will arrive with a hole pre-cut as part of its construction. This is really the only way to install a cat flap into a pre-existing patio or double glazed door, although it might take a week or two to produce. After construction, your old glass pane will be taken out, and the brand new one put in. The cat flap will then be fitted.

Exterior Wooden Doors - As mentioned earlier in this article, wooden door panels are the simplest alternative when it comes to installing a new cat flap on your house in Selsey. It is often best to employ the expert services of an experienced handyman or cat flap fitter, if you are uncertain about cutting a hole in your front door. An undertaking like this is fairly inexpensive and will give you the assurance of knowing that your pet has an expertly installed flap.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can be mounted into uPVC doors in most cases. It pays to know the interior construction, because some uPVC door panels are steel lined for further security. A one piece panel allows for easier installation, so if you have a uPVC door that is slatted, it might be more economical to replace the panel with a single panel model.

Wall Installation - If, for either security or aesthetic reasons, you do not wish to have a chunk cut out of one of your doors, you could always decide to install your cat flap into an external wall of your house in Selsey. A cat flap entrance in a wall calls for considerably more equipment and expertise to fit, therefore it is definitely best left to a specialist. You could pick out a straightforward tunnel style, or even a right angled model that allows access through a pillar. This installation calls for a square shaped hole being made through your wall, into which a metal or plastic, open ended square insert is fitted. The cat flap you have chosen can then be mounted on either end to allow your feline friend to come and go as it pleases.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Selsey - If you already have a cat flat, but it is either broken or not operating correctly, the existing hole in your wall, window or door can be used for a replacement providing that the new cat flap is of a similar size. A good cat flap installer in Selsey will be capable of removing your unwanted cat flap, and mount a brand new one in its place without harming the door, wall or window.

If the substitute cat flap is to be mounted in a pre-cut hole in a double glazed pane, you must make sure that the existing glass has been made and installed correctly. If you discover that this isn't the case, and a botch was made of the original installation, the pane will need to be removed and replaced to avoid any security and safety problems.
