Cat Flap Fitter Batley

Cat Flap Fitter Batley West Yorkshire (WF17): Fitting a cat flap to an outside wall or door in your Batley home provides your cat with the independence and freedom it needs to live a life of contentment. Cats are inclined to get irritated and crabby when kept indoors, and not able to roam free. When allowed quick access to the great outdoors with a cat flap, your beloved cat has a better chance of staying healthy and well. If you elect to go down the cat flap route, your next decision will be what is the best type of cat flap.

The most rudimentry type of cat flap is basically that. A hole cut in a door with a bendable sheet of material fixed over it, to give protection from the elements, but allow the cat go through. Though this could be suitable in an outhouse or shed door, the majority of Batley cat owners would no doubt favour something a tad more secure and weatherproof for an outside door to their house.

This standard model is still far from perfect as it allows other animals or cats to get into your home, nevertheless it can be improved on a little by adding a magnetic strip to hold the flap in place.

Magnetically controlled, RF chip or infra-red designs of cat flap, are the next step up from the basic magnetic strip version. With this kind of cat flap, your cat must wear a collar fitted with an IR, RF chip or magnet. No animal will be able to leave or get into your house unless it is fitted with one of these special collars. Once again this is a pretty basic type of cat flap, since any other cat in the Batley area who has a similar collar could possible access your house. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the upgraded version of these devices as they can be programmed by the pet's owner to recognise a unique identifier, specific to your cat. An additional layer of control and security is achieved, guaranteeing that only your furry friend gets access.

The next stage in feline access security is to fit the type of cat flap that recognises your pet's own microchip. The details of your cat's micro-chip are entered into the cat flap's memory (multiple entries can be made if you've got more than one cat). Entry and exit can only be achieved by microchipped animals, and the flap will be unlocked when you cat is in the vicinity.

When you're buying a cat flap, you must ensure that it is of a design that can be locked. These days, most cat flaps available on the market feature a four way locking mechanism for added flexibility. Which means that the cat flap can be fully locked, allow only exit from your home, enable entrance into your premises only, or be set for 2-way exit and entry. This provides full control over the operation of your cat flap both throughout the day and during the night time. The ability to carry out different functions in accordance with the time of day, and in line with yours and your pet's needs is also an option with some of the more expensive models of cat flap.

Fitting a cat flap yourself can be fairly simple if you have a solid timber door, and decent DIY capabilities. Under no circumstances should you try to install a cat flap in a reinforced uPVC door or in a double glazed window panel. These sorts of fixtures call for a professional installation by a reputable cat flap fitter or handyman with the appropriate equipment and skills.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN BATLEY

Double Glazing Installations - If your new cat flap needs to be installed in a double glazed door or window panel, and your chosen "tradesman" tries to drill a hole in it, stop the job straight away and give them their walking orders. A new cat flap can't be mounted into an existing double glazing window pane or door panel. Any sort of double glazing will be damaged by cutting into it, and will damage its strength, insulating attributes and security. It should under no circumstances be attempted and will render the double glazing unsound.

It is necessary to obtain a new double glazed pane made specially for this purpose by a glazing supplier, and your local Batley cat flap installer will take the measurements of your existing unit and put in an order for the new one. To ensure that the cat flap can be nicely installed into it, this new double glazed unit will arrive with a pre-cut hole as an integral part of its structure. You might have a one or two week waiting period for this to be made, however if you want a cat flap installed in an existing double glazed or patio door, this is basically the only way to accomplish it.

If you're hesitant about making a hole in your back or front door, it's advisable to bring in a specialist to complete the task for you. This kind of task will not be all that expensive and is really worth doing correctly, if having your cat flap expertly installed gives you that additional peace of mind.

uPVC Door Panels - Cat flaps can be mounted into uPVC doors in many cases. It is necessary to know the interior construction, since some uPVC doors incorporate a steel lining for added security. The models of door with a one-piece panel are the simplest for installing cat flaps, so if yours has got a slatted style door panel, it may be easier to swap this for a single pane.

Wall Installation - It is also possible to get a cat flap installed into an outside wall of your home in Batley, if you don't wish to have a hole cut in one of your doors, either for safety or aesthetic reasons. A cat flap entrance in a wall calls for a little more expertise and equipment to fit, therefore it's certainly best left to a professional. The majority of wall cat flap installations involve a simple straight tunnelled style, however right angled access via a pillar is also an option. Installation entails a square hole being cut through the wall of your choice, into which a plastic or metal, open ended square tube is inserted.

You local cat flap installer will be able to remove the old cat flap, without harming the window, wall or door, and install a new flap in its place for your cat.

Before fitting a new flap in a double glazed pane that has been previously pre-cut, checking that the current glass has been made, cut and installed correctly is vital. The glass pane will need to be removed and replaced with a new one to avoid any security and safety issues, if it becomes obvious this isn't the case and a bodge job was made of the previous installation.
