Cat Flap Fitter Westerham

Cat Flap Fitter Westerham Kent (TN16): An excellent way to give your cat more independence and enrich it's quality of life is to install a cat flap on an external wall or door of your property in Westerham. Cats are quite like people in a lot of ways, and will likely start to show signs of irritability and frustration if kept indoors for significant periods of time. Having a cat that is both physically and mentally fit, is one of the main positive aspects of allowing your furry friend easy access to world outside via a cat flap. However, what form of cat flap is better for your circumstances?

The most rudimentry type of cat flap is basically that. A sheet of bendable material hung over a hole in a door to permit a cat to pass through, but keep out the elements. Whilst this may be acceptable for an outhouse door or fence panel, most Westerham cat owners would no doubt prefer something a tad more secure and weatherproof for an outside door to their home.

This basic model can be improved on slightly with a magnetic strip to keep the flap in position, however it's still far from perfect because it enables other cats or creatures a means by which to get into your house.

A step up from the magnetic strip style are infra-red or RF chip, magnetically controlled cat flaps. This requires your cat to wear a collar which has either an IR, RF chip or magnet encased within it. No animal will be able to leave or access your house unless it's fitted with this special collar. The drawback here is that any other moggy in the Westerham area who's got a similar model of collar can easily get into your property when using this sort of cat flap. Even these cat flaps can be improved to some degree with an RF cat flap/collar system providing an owner programmed unique identifier.

The type of cat flap that is able to identify your cat's own micro-chip, is the next stage in feline entry security. 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. When your cat is in close proximity to the flap, it unlocks and permits just your micro-chipped pets to use the exit/entrance.

The ability to lock it in position is essential no matter what cat flap you're purchasing. Nowadays, most cat flaps on the market boast a four way locking mechanism for added flexibility. This makes it possible for your cat flap to enable exit from your home only, be fully locked, permit only access into your property, or have two way exit and entry capability. This gives full control over the functioning of your cat flap both during the day and throughout the night. The wherewithal to carry out particular functions according to the time of day, and in line with your cat's and your needs is also a possibility with some of the top-end brands of cat flap.

If you're fairly good at DIY, installing your own cat flap shouldn't be all that difficult, as long as you have a wooden door on your house in Westerham. On no account should you try to install a cat flap in a double glazed window panel or in a reinforced uPVC door. These situations require the skills and expertise of a professional cat flap fitter or odd job man, who is sure to have have the knowledge and equipment for this sort of installation.

INSTALLING CAT FLAPS IN WESTERHAM

Double Glazing Installations - If you employ somebody who endeavours to drill a hole in your double glazing to put in your cat flap, stop them without delay and ask them to leave. A new cat flap can not be fitted into an existing double glazed door panel or window pane. Any kind of double glazing will be damaged by cutting or drilling into it, and will damage its strength, thermal insulation properties and security. The double glazing will be rendered unsound, and it shouldn't be done under any circumstances.

A dependable Westerham cat flap fitter will meticulously take the measurements of your current panel and order a purpose made one from a local glazing supplier. So the cat flap can be nicely installed into it, this new double glazing panel will arrive with a hole pre-cut as part of its construction. This is the only way to install a cat flap in a pre-existing patio or double glazed door, even though it might take a week or more to manufacture. After fabrication, the old glass pane will be taken out, and the new adapted one put in its place. The cat flap can then be installed.

Exterior Wooden Doors - Solid wood doors are, as I mentioned above, the easiest alternatives for cat flap installation in Westerham. If you are a little nervous about creating an opening in your door, you might be happier getting in touch with an experienced cat flap fitter or carpenter instead. This kind of project will not be expensive and will provide you with peace of mind that your pet will have the use of an expertly installed flap.

uPVC Door Panels - It is quite possible to fit a cat flap into a uPVC door. Nonetheless, some uPVC doors have a steel lining for added security, which could cause problems. The designs of door with a one piece panel are the simplest for installing cat flaps, so if yours has got a slatted type panel, it may be advisable to swap this for a single pane.

Wall Installation - If, for safety or aesthetic reasons, you do not wish to have a chunk cut out of your door, you could choose to install a cat flap into an outside wall of your property in Westerham. Requiring much more equipment and skill, a wall cat flap install is definitely better left to a professional, if it is to be completed successfully. Nearly all wall cat flap installations are a simple straight tunnel style, but right angle access through a pillar is also an option. A square shaped hole will be cut through your wall, into which is inserted a metal or plastic, open ended square tube. The cat flap you have chosen can then be attached at either end to enable your cat to come and go as it wishes.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Westerham - If you've already got a cat flap installed on your window, wall or door, but it's damaged or not functioning properly, the existing hole can, with a little luck, be re-used for installing a new one. A competent cat flap fitter in Westerham will efficiently remove the old,unwanted cat flap, and fix a new one as a replacement without causing damage to the surrounding door, window or wall.

Before installing a new flap in a double glazed pane which has been previously pre-cut, making sure that the existing glass has been manufactured, cut and installed in the right way is crucial. The glass must be removed and replaced with a new one to avoid any safety and security issues, if it's found this isn't the case and a bodge job was made of the previous installation.
