Stanley Cat Flap Installation & Repair

Cat Flap Fitter Stanley County Durham (DH9): To provide your cat with the independence it needs to live a life of contentment, you could install a cat flap to an exterior wall or door in your Stanley home. Rather like people, when kept indoors, cats will often show signs of anxiety and frustration.

If this seems like a great idea to you, exactly what sort of cat flap should you choose?

The simplest type of cat flap is essentially that. A hole is cut into an external door and a flexible material is placed over it to give protection from the elements. Although this may be acceptable for a shed door or garden fence panel, the majority of cat owners in Stanley would doubtless prefer something a little more weatherproof and secure for an outside door to their property.

This uncomplicated design is still a long way from being perfect since it allows other animals or cats a way to enter your home, however it can be marginally improved on by adding a magnetic strip to keep the flap in position.

Magnetically operated, infra-red or RF chip designs of cat flap, are a significant step up from the basic magnetic strip version. With these, either a magnet, IR or RF chip will be sewn into your cat's collar. Unless an animal is equipped with one of these special collars, it won't be able to trigger the flap and leave or get into your property, thus preventing some undesirable visitors. The point that any other cat in the neighbourhood that's got a similar style of collar could perhaps get into your home, is the downside with this still fairly basic kind of cat flap. Even these cat flaps can be upgraded to a certain extent with an RF cat flap and collar system having an owner programmed unique identifier.

The next stage in feline entry security is to consider the kind of cat flap which can be triggered by your cat's microchip. The memory of these cat flaps can be programmed with one or more microchip numbers (if you have more than one cat), to give exclusive access. The flap is unfastened when your cat is close-by, only allowing exit or entry to pets that are microchipped.

No matter which cat flap you buy, it must be capable of being locked in position. The majority of cat flaps sold these days feature a four way locking system. This allows your cat flap to enable exit only, permit entrance into your home only, be locked fully, or have 2-way exit and entry functionality. This provides total control over the functioning of your cat flap both during the day and throughout the night time. The wherewithal to carry out specific functions according to the time of day, and in line with your pet's and your needs is also a possibility with some of the more advanced brands of cat flap.

Putting in a cat flap on your own can be quite simple if you've got a solid timber door on your Stanley house, and decent DIY capabilities. Although, if it is going to be installed in a double glazed window or in a reinforced uPVC door, you should on no account even attempt to tackle it yourself. This type of installation requires the attention of a professional, and there are specialist cat flap installers and talented handymen who will be ready to accept such work.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN STANLEY

Double Glazing Installation - If you bring in a so-called "tradesman" who, while trying to fit your new cat flap, attempts to drill a hole in a double glazed panel, immediately send them on their way. New cat flaps can't be fitted into existing double glazing window or door panels. Cutting into any kind of double glazing will destroy its strength and security, along with its insulating properties. The double glazing will be rendered unsound, and it shouldn't be done in any circumstances.

An experienced cat flap fitter will measure the existing double glazing unit and have a local Stanley glazing company knock up a new pane. So that the cat flap can be snugly fitted into it, this new glazed pane will be provided with a pre-cut hole as part of its construction. This might take two weeks or so to produce, however it's basically the only way to fit a cat flap in a pre-existing patio or double glazed door. After fabrication, your old glass can be removed, and the brand new one put in. Your cat flap will then be installed.

External Wooden Doors - The least complicated alternative for new cat flap installations in Stanley, as was stated earlier, are solid wood doors. It's generally wise to get in touch with an experienced handyman or cat flap fitter, if you're uncomfortable with creating a hole in your front or back door. A project of this sort is fairly inexpensive and will provide you with peace of mind that your cat can enjoy an expertly fitted flap.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can generally speaking be fitted into uPVC doors. You or your installer will need to establish what the interior structure of you door actually is, because for added security some uPVC doors are manufactured with a steel lining. A one piece panel allows for easier installation, so if you have a slatted type uPVC door panel, it might be less expensive to replace the panel with a single panel type.

Wall Installation - If, for security or aesthetic reasons, you don't wish to have a hole cut into a door, you could always decide to install the cat flap in an external wall of your house. Needing far more equipment and skill, a wall cat flap install is certainly better left to a professional, if it is to be completed correctly. There are several options for this installation, including a straight through tunnel version, or a right angle (through pillar) style. A neat square hole will need to be made through your selected wall, into which is inserted a metal or plastic, square open ended tube. A cat flap of your choice can then be attached at either end to enable your furry friend to enter and exit as it wishes.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Stanley - If your door, wall or window already has a cat flap installed, but it has stopped working, or is damaged, it is entirely possible to mount a replacement over the existing cavity. An expert Stanley cat flap installer will be happy to remove your old entry unit and swap it for a fresh cat flap without causing any harm to the window, door or wall on which it's secured.

If the substitute cat flap is to be fitted in a pre cut hole in a double glazed pane, you must make sure that the glass has been manufactured and installed correctly. The panel will need to be taken out and replaced with a new one to avoid any safety and security issues, if it becomes obvious that this isn't the case and a bodge job was made of the original installation.
