Cat Flap Fitter Truro

Cat Flap Fitter Truro Cornwall (TR1): The installation of a cat flap to an external wall or door in your house in Truro, will enable it to live a happy life and enjoy it's own little bit of independence and freedom. Cats tend to get irritated and grumpy when continuously kept indoors, and not able to roam. Having accessibility to outside world by way of a cat flap will help your cat to remain fit, both physically and mentally. If this sounds like a great idea to you, what style of cat flap should you install?

Essentially, a cat flap at its most basic is just that. A hole in a door with a bendable sheet of material fixed over it, to keep the weather out, but permit the cat climb through. Obviously, this is very basic, and will rarely adequate for most cat owners in Truro, who would favour something a little more weatherproof and secure for an outside door to their property, although it could be okay for a shed or outhouse door.

This uncomplicated design can be improved on to some degree with magnetic strips to hold the flap in place, however it's still a long way off being ideal because it enables other cats or creatures to get into your house.

Moving on from a magnetic strip are magnetically operated, infra-red or RF chip styles of cat flap. With this form of cat flap, your cat will have to wear a collar fitted with an IR, RF chip or magnet. Subsequently, any animal that hasn't got a special collar can't leave or get into your house. The reality that any other cat in the Truro area who has a similar style of collar could perchance get into your home, is the downside with this still fairly basic type of cat flap. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the upgraded version of these products and can be programmed by the owner of the cat to recognise a unique identifier, distinct to your cat. Gaining access is restricted to only your feline friend, resulting in an additional layer of security and control.

Having a cat flap that can be operated by your pet's micro-chip, is the next level in entry devices for felines in Truro. The number of your cat's microchip is entered into the cat flap's memory (multiple entries are possible if you have more than one cat). The flap will be unfastened anytime your cat is nearby, only allowing access to animals that are microchipped.

The ability to lock it in place is important regardless which cat flap you are purchasing. For extra flexibility, almost all cat flaps feature a four way locking mechanism these days. Which means that it's got the capability to enable only entry into your property, be locked fully, enable exit only, or be put in two-way entry and exit mode. This provides you with solutions for all times of night and day, to have control over how your cat flap operates. The facility to perform specific functions according to the time of day, and in line with your pet's and your requirements is also an option with some of the high end brands of cat flap.

If you have a wooden door on your home in Truro, installing you own cat flap shouldn't be that hard. Although, if it is going to be fitted into a reinforced PVC door or in a double glazed window, you shouldn't even attempt to tackle it by yourself. These sorts of fixtures require a professional installation from a reliable cat flap installer or handyman with the appropriate skills and equipment.

INSTALLING CAT FLAPS IN TRURO

Double Glazing Installations - If your cat flap has to be fitted into a double glazed panel, and your chosen "tradesman" endeavours to drill a hole in it, stop the job right away and show them the gate. New cat flaps can not be mounted into pre-existing double glazing window or door panels. Making a hole in the double glazing damages not merely the strength and security of the panel, but it compromises the insulation attributes as well. It should in no circumstances be attempted and will render your double glazing unsound.

A specialist cat flap fitter will measure up the existing double glazed unit and have a local glazing firm make a new one. This new panel will be delivered with a hole cut out as a part of its construction where your cat flap will be installed. You may have a 1 or 2 week wait for this to be manufactured, however if you want a cat flap installed into a pre-existing patio or double glazed door, this is the only way to accomplish it. Once you've received your new panel of glass, the old one can be removed and the new unit installed. The cat flap will then be fitted.

Exterior Wooden Doors - As mentioned previously, wood door panels are the easiest alternative when it comes to cat flap installation on your home in Truro. If you're unsure of making a hole in your back or front door, it's it may be better to contact a professional to undertake the project for you. This should provide you with the reassurance that you are going to finish up with an expertly fitted cat friendly flap, and that the job has been undertaken properly.

uPVC Door Panels - It is perfectly possible to fit a cat flap into most uPVC doors. Nevertheless, some uPVC doors are lined with steel for further security, which can cause some issues. A one piece panel allows for simpler installation, so if you have a uPVC door that is slatted, it might be less expensive to exchange this panel for a single pane type.

Wall Installation - It's also a possibility to have a cat flap installed in an outside wall of your house in Truro, if you do not want to cut holes in your doors, either for aesthetic or security reasons. A wall cat flap entrance requires a little more skill and equipment to install, so it's certainly better left to an expert. Almost all cat flap installations in walls involve a basic straight tunnelled style, but right angular access through a pillar is also possible. Installation calls for a square hole being cut through your wall, into which a plastic or metal, open ended square tube is inserted. A suitable cat flap is then mounted on each side of the hole.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Truro - If you've already got a cat flat, but it is either broken or not working properly, the current hole in your wall, door or window can still be used as long as the new cat flap is of an equivalent size. Your cat flap installer will be able to remove the old cat flap, without causing damage to the surrounding window, door or wall, and fit a new flap for your cat.

Before attaching the new cat flap in a double glazed panel that has been previously pre-cut, checking that the existing glass has been manufactured, cut and installed accurately is vital. If corners were cut with the previous installation, the panel will need to be removed and exchanged to avoid any security and safety issues with the new flap.
