Cat Flap Fitter Southwell

Cat Flap Fitter Southwell Nottinghamshire (NG25): A great way to give your cat more independence and enrich it's overally quality of life is to install a cat flap on an outside door or wall of your house in Southwell. In a similar vein to humans, when kept indoors, cats will often show signs of frustration and unease. Having easy access to world outside with a cat flap will help your furry friend to keep fit, both mentally and physically. But what form of cat flap is the best solution for your circumstances?

The most fundamental sort of cat flap, is just that. A hole in a door with a bendable piece of material fixed over it, to keep the weather out, but let the cat move through. The vast majority of cat owners in Southwell would favour something a little more secure and weatherproof for an outside door to their home, although this may be suitable for an outhouse door or fence panel.

This simple model is still a long way off being ideal as it allows other animals or cats to get into your property, but it can be marginally improved on with the addition of a magnetic strip to hold the flap in position.

A step up from the magnetic strip design are infra-red or RF chip, magnetically controlled cat flaps. With this kind of cat flap, your cat must wear a collar featuring a magnet, RF or IR chip. Unless an animal is fitted with one of these special collars, it won't be able to open the flap and get into or leave your home, hence preventing some unwanted visitors. Again this is a pretty basic type of cat flap, because any other moggy in the neighbourhood that's got a similar model of collar will be able to gain access to your property. Even these cat flaps can be enhanced to a certain degree with an RF cat flap and collar system featuring an owner programmed unique identifier.

Having a cat flap that can be triggered by your cat's microchip, is the next step-up in access security for felines in Southwell. You have to enter the details of your cat's micro-chip into the memory the cat flap (which is battery powered), and if you've got several cats it will take multiple entries. Exit and entry are only possible for microchipped animals, and the flap will be unlocked whenever you cat is in the vicinity.

No matter what cat flap you buy, it must be capable of being locked in position. For added flexibility, the majority of cat flaps have a four way locking mechanism these days. Which means that it has the capability to be locked fully, permit admittance into your home only, enable exit only, or be put in two way entry and exit mode. This provides full control over the functioning of your cat flap both during the day and throughout the night. A few of the top-end devices can be set to perform specific functions in accordance with the time of day, in keeping with yours and your cat's needs.

Putting in a cat flap on your own can be pretty easy if you've got a solid timber door, and reasonable DIY skills. Although, if it has to be installed in a double glazed window or in a reinforced PVC door, you should on no account even attempt to tackle it yourself. These kinds of fittings require a professional installation from a reliable cat flap fitter or odd job man with the necessary equipment and skills.

INSTALLING CAT FLAPS IN SOUTHWELL

Double Glazing Installation - If you bring in a so-called "tradesman" who, while endeavouring to fit your cat flap, starts to drill a hole in a double glazing panel, send them packing immediately. It isn't possible to install a new cat flap into a double glazing window pane or door panel. Any sort of double glazing will be damaged by drilling or cutting into it, and will detract from its security, insulating properties and strength. In fact, it renders the glazing unsafe and it should not ever be attempted.

It is necessary to obtain a new double glazed pane made especially for this purpose by a glazing company, and your chosen Southwell cat flap installer will take the measurements of your current pane and order the new one. This new panel will arrive with a hole cut out as an integral part of its construction where the cat flap will be fitted. You may have to wait a week or two for this special pane to be produced, however if you need a cat flap installed in a pre-existing double glazed or patio door, this is basically the only way to accomplish it. Once your new panel of glass arrives, the fitter will remove the old one, and replace it with the new "cat flap ready" one. It's now possible to install your new cat flap.

External Wooden Doors - The easiest option for installing a new cat flap in Southwell, as was mentioned previously, are solid wood door panels. If you're somewhat uncomfortable with creating a hole in your door, you may be better off getting in touch with a specialist carpenter or cat flap fitter instead. A project like this should not be expensive and will give you the satisfaction of knowing that your kitty has an expertly fitted flap.

uPVC Door Panels - uPVC doors can be installed with a cat flap. You or your installer will have to find out what the internal structure of you door actually is, since for additional security certain uPVC door panels are manufactured with a steel lining. The simplest kind of cat flap installation is in doors with one single panel, consequently if you have a uPVC door with slatted vertical panels, it may be easier and cheaper in the long run to exchange the slatted panel for a one piece panel.

Wall Installation - If you don't really wish to have a hole cut in your doors, either for aesthetic or safety reasons, you could have a cat flap installed on an exterior wall. This kind of installation is definitely best left to an expert, as it requires far more skill and equipment to accomplish. You will find there are a couple of possibilities for this type of installation, including a straight through tunnel version, or a right angled (through pillar) pattern. A square shaped hole will need to be cut through your chosen wall, into which is inserted a plastic or metal, square open ended tube. A suitable cat flap can then be installed on both sides of the hole.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Southwell - If you already have a cat flap installed on your window, door or wall, but it is damaged or not working properly, the current hole can, with a little luck, still be used for the installation of a replacement. You local cat flap installer will be able to take off the old cat flap, without harming the door, window or wall, and install a brand new flap in its place for your cat.

If the new cat flap is to be mounted into a pre cut hole in a double glazing panel, you must check that the existing glass has been manufactured and installed in the right way. If you discover that this is not 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 problems.
