Cat Flap Fitter Warlingham

Cat Flap Fitter Warlingham Surrey (CR6): To give your cat the independence it needs to live a happy life, you could install a cat flap to an external door or wall in your Warlingham property. Cats are very similar to humans in a lot of ways, and will often start to show signs of frustration and irritability if kept inside for significant periods of time. When permitted easy access to the outside world with a cat flap, your pet has a much better chance of staying healthy and fit. If you choose to go with the cat flap option, your next decision will be what sort of cat flap would be best.

Essentially, a cat flap at its most basic is merely that. A hole in a door with a flexible piece of material hung over it, to provide protection from the weather, but allow the cat pass through. The vast majority of Warlingham cat owners would doubtless prefer something a tad more weatherproof and secure for a main door to their house, although this might be acceptable for a shed door or fence panel.

This basic model can be to some degree improved on with a magnetic strip to hold the flap in place, however it's still far from perfect because it enables other animals or cats to enter your property.

The next step up from the magnetic strip version are RF chip or infra-red, magnetically operated cat flaps. This requires that your cat wears a collar that's got either an RF chip, IR or magnet encased within it. This means that any animal that does not have a special collar can't get into or leave your house. The point that any other cat in the neighbourhood that's got a similar collar might be able to gain access to your home, is the drawback with this sort of cat flap. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the best version of these devices and can be programmed by the pet's owner to recognise a unique identifier, specific to your pet.

The next stage in feline access security is to install a cat flap that recognises your pet's own micro-chip. The memory of these battery powered cat flaps can be programmed with one or even multiple microchip details (if you have several cats), to give exclusive access. Entry and exit can only be accomplished by micro-chipped animals, and the flap will be unlocked when you cat is in close proximity.

Whichever cat flap you purchase, it must have the ability to be locked in position. For extra security, the majority of cat flaps have a four way locking mechanism nowadays. Which means it has the capability to be fully locked, enable access into your property only, permit only exit from your home, or be put in 2-way exit and entry mode. This offers you a range of alternatives on how your cat flap functions any time of the day and night time. The wherewithal to carry out different functions in accordance with the time of day, and in keeping with yours and your cat's needs is also a possibility with some of the more expensive brands of cat flap.

Installing a cat flap on your own can be pretty simple if you've got a solid timber door, and reasonable DIY capabilities. Not in any circumstances should you try to fit a cat flap in a reinforced uPVC door or in a double glazed window. This type of installation calls for the attention of a professional, and there are specialist cat flap installers and skilled carpenters who are ready to undertake such a task.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN WARLINGHAM

Double Glazing Installation - If you call in a so-called "tradesman" who, while trying to fit your cat flap, attempts to drill a hole in a double glazing window or door panel, immediately send them packing. New cat flaps can not be installed into pre-existing double glazed window or door panels. Making a hole in your double glazing destroys not just the security and strength of the glazing, but it takes away the thermal insulation attributes as well. In reality, it makes your glazing unsafe and it should not ever be done.

It will be necessary to get a new double glazing pane made specially for this purpose by a glazing supplier, and your chosen Warlingham cat flap fitter will measure your current panel and put in an order for a brand new one. As part of its structure this new glazed unit will have a pre-cut hole, which the cat flap can be installed nicely into. This is really the only way to fit a cat flap in a pre-existing patio or double glazed door, although it might take one or two weeks to produce. Once you have received your new glass pane, the old one can be removed and the new one fitted. It's now possible to install and set up your cat flap.

Exterior Wooden Doors - As mentioned previously, wooden doors are the least complicated alternative in relation to cat flap installation on your home in Warlingham. It's usually better to get in touch with an experienced cat flap fitter or handyman, if you are uncertain about cutting a big hole in your front door. This type of task will not be all that expensive and is well worth doing correctly, if getting your cat flap installed by a professional offers you that additional peace of mind.

uPVC Door Panels - It is perfectly feasible to install a cat flap into most uPVC doors. Nevertheless, some uPVC door panels are steel lined for additional security, which can cause some issues. The easiest type of installation is in doors having a single panel, consequently if you've got a uPVC door with vertical slatted panels, it might be cheaper and easier in the long run to exchange the slatted pane for a one-piece panel.

Wall Installation - If, for either safety or aesthetic reasons, you do not wish to have a chunk cut out of a door, you could elect to install the cat flap on an external wall of your property. Calling for much more skill and equipment, a wall cat flap installation is undoubtedly best left to the pros, if it is to be completed correctly. You'll find there are a couple of possibilities for this kind of installation, including a straight through tunnel design, or a right angular (through pillar) pattern. A neat square shaped hole will have to be cut through your chosen wall, into which is inserted a metal or plastic, open ended square tube. An appropriate cat flap can then be fitted to both sides of the hole.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Warlingham - If your wall, door or window is already fitted with a cat flap, but it's stopped working effectively, or is damaged, it's possible to mount a replacement over the current cavity. Your cat flap fitter should be able to remove the unwanted cat flap, without damaging the window, door or wall, and install a new flap in its place for your cat.

If the new cat flap is going to be mounted in a pre cut hole in a double glazing panel, you must double check that the glass has been made and installed accurately. If it is found this isn't the case, and a botch was made of the original installation, the glass panel will have to be removed and replaced with a new one to avoid any security and safety problems.
