A cat flap at its most fundamental is merely that. A hole cut in a door with a flexible piece of material fixed over it, to keep out the elements, but permit the cat pass through it. The majority of Viewpark cat owners would doubtless prefer something a tad more weatherproof and secure for an exterior door to their property, although this could be okay for a fence panel or shed door.

As this option permits other animals or cats to enter your home, it's not at all ideal, although it can be enhanced to some extent by holding the flap in position with the addition of a magnetic strip.

Stepping up from a basic magnetic strip are magnetically controlled, infra-red or RF chip styles of cat flap. This involves your cat wearing a collar that has either a magnet, IR or RF chip encased within it. Unless an animal is fitted with this special collar, it won't be able to open the flap and get into or leave your home, thus avoiding some undesirable visitors. The reality that any other moggy in the area that has a similar model of collar may be able to access your home, is the drawback with this sort of cat flap. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the preferred version of these products as they can be programmed by the owner of the cat to recognise a unique identifier, distinct to your pet.

The next stage in feline access security is to fit a model of cat flap that identifies your pet's own microchip. You need to enter the number of your cat's micro-chip into the memory the cat flap (which is powered by batteries), and if you have more than one cat it will allow multiple entries. Whenever your cat is in close proximity to the flap, it unlocks and allows just your micro-chipped pets to exit or enter.

Double Glazing Installation - If you employ somebody who endeavours to drill a hole in your double glazing to install your new cat flap, stop them immediately and request that they leave.

Making holes in the double glazing destroys not merely the security and strength of the panel, but it takes away the insulation properties as well. It should under no circumstances be attempted and will make your double glazing unsafe.

An experienced cat flap fitter will take measurements of the existing double glazing pane and have a glazing firm make a new pane. This new glazed panel will be delivered with a pre-cut hole as a part of its structure where the cat flap can be fitted. This is the only way to install a cat flap into a pre-existing double glazed or patio door, although it may take a week or more to manufacture. Once you have obtained your new panel of glass, the old one can be removed and the new one fitted. The installing of your cat flap can then be concluded.
