Cat Flap Fitter Huntingdon

Cat Flap Fitter Huntingdon Cambridgeshire (PE29): A simple way to enhance your cat's independence and improve it's quality of life is to install a cat flap on an exterior door or wall of your house in Huntingdon. Cats are like people in many ways, and will frequently show signs of frustration and anxiety if kept indoors for long periods of time without a break. Having access to the outside world via a cat flap will help your furry friend to keep fit, both physically and mentally. However, what style of cat flap is the best solution for your situation?

Essentially, a cat flap at its most fundamental is merely that. A hole cut in a door with a flexible piece of material hung over it, to keep the elements out, but permit the cat pass through it. The vast majority of cat owners in Huntingdon would doubtless prefer something a little more weatherproof and secure for a main door to their house, although this may be acceptable for a shed or outhouse door.

This standard model can be improved on a little with magnetic strips to hold the flap in place, but it's still far from perfect as it allows other creatures or cats to get into your house.

Magnetically controlled, RF chip or infra-red styles of cat flap, are a step up from the magnetic strip version. With this kind of cat flap, your cat must wear a collar featuring an IR, RF chip or magnet. No animal will be able to access or leave your home unless it's equipped with one of these special collars. The downside is that any other moggy in the area who's got a similar style of collar could perchance get into your home with this type of cat flap installed. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the best version of these products as they can be programmed by the cat's owner to recognise a unique identifier, specific to your pet. Access is limited to your feline friend alone, delivering an additional layer of control and security.

Fitting a cat flap which can identify your cat's own microchip, is the next step-up in access devices for felines. 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 pet it will accept multiple entries. Whenever your cat is close to the flap, it unlocks and permits just your microchipped pets to use the exit/entrance.

Being able to lock it in position is important regardless which cat flap you are purchasing. For extra flexibility, almost all cat flaps boast a 4-way locking mechanism nowadays. Which means that the cat flap can allow access into your house only, be fully locked, permit only exit from your home, or be set for two-way entry and exit. This gives you solutions for all times of day and night, to control exactly how your cat flap functions. Some of the higher end devices can be programmed to carry out particular functions according to the time of day, based on yours and your cat's requirements.

If you have a wooden door in your home in Huntingdon, putting in a cat flap yourself shouldn't be too difficult. Not in any circumstances should you try and install a cat flap in a reinforced uPVC door or in a double glazed window panel. This sort of installation calls for the attention of a professional, and there are dedicated cat flap installers and skilled odd job men who'll be delighted to accept such a task.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN HUNTINGDON

Double Glazing Installations - If you hire someone who attempts to drill a hole in a double glazed panel to put in your cat flap, stop them without delay and request that they leave. New cat flaps can't be installed into existing double glazing doors or window panels. Making a hole in your double glazing damages not simply the strength and security of the panel, but it compromises the thermal insulation properties too. Your double glazing will be made unsafe, and it shouldn't be done in any circumstances.

It will be necessary to obtain a new double glazed unit made especially for this purpose by a glazing company, and your chosen Huntingdon cat flap installer will take the measurements of your existing unit and order the new one. This new glazed pane will be delivered with a hole cut out as part of its construction where the cat flap can be installed. This is the only way to fit a cat flap into an existing patio or double glazed door, even though it might take two weeks or so to manufacture. After construction, your old glass pane will be removed, and the new adapted one put in its place. The fitting of the cat flap will then be carried out.

Exterior Wooden Doors - Wooden door panels are, as stated earlier, the simplest options for installing a new cat flap in Huntingdon. If you are nervous about creating a hole in your back or front door, it's advisable to call on a specialist to complete the task for you. This should provide you with the reassurance that you'll finish up with a professionally fitted cat flap, and that the project has been done in the right and proper way.

uPVC Door Panels - uPVC doors can be used for installing a cat flap. You or your installer will need to establish what the internal construction of you door is, since for additional security certain uPVC doors are manufactured with a steel lining. A one-piece door panel enables simpler installation, so if you have a slatted type uPVC door panel, it may be more cost effective to replace the panel with a single panel model.

Wall Installation - It's also a possibility to have a cat flap installed on an external wall of your house in Huntingdon, if you don't wish to cut holes in your doors, for safety or aesthetic reasons. A wall cat flap entrance calls for a little more equipment and skill to fit, therefore it's certainly best left to a professional. You will find there are a number of options for this installation, including a straight-through tunnel version, or a right angular (through pillar) style. Installation entails a neat square hole being made through the wall of your choice, into which a metal or plastic, open ended square insert is fitted. An appropriate cat flap can then be attached to both sides of the hole.

Replacing an Existing Cat Flap in Huntingdon - If your door, window or wall is already fitted with a cat flap, but it's not working, or is damaged, it's perfectly possible to mount a replacement over the current cavity. A reliable cat flap installer in Huntingdon will be capable of removing your unwanted cat flap, and fit a brand new one as a replacement without causing damage to the surrounding door, window or wall.

Before fitting the new cat flap in a double glazing panel which has been previously pre-cut, checking that the current glass has been cut and installed in the right way is essential. If it's discovered that corners were cut with the previous installation, the pane will have to be taken out and replaced to avoid any security and safety problems with the new cat flap.
