Cat Flap Fitter Wincanton

Cat Flap Fitter Wincanton Somerset (BA9): To give your cat the independence and freedom that it needs to live a life of contentment, you could fit a cat flap to an external wall or door in your Wincanton house. Cats are inclined to get irritated and crabby when constantly kept inside, and not able to roam. Giving your furry friend easy access to world outside via a cat flap can also help in keeping them mentally and physically fit. Of course, that's not the end of the story, as there are various sorts of cat flap, and figuring out which design is best for your pet might not be so easy.

The simplest type of cat flap is basically that. A hole in a door with a flexible piece of material hung over it, to keep the elements out, but allow the cat go through. Whilst this could be acceptable for a shed or outhouse door, most cat owners in Wincanton would favour something a bit more secure and weatherproof for a main door to their property.

As this option can allow other cats or animals to enter your house, it isn't at all recommended, though it can be enhanced a little by holding the flap in position by adding magnetic strips.

A step up from the magnetic strip style are RF chip or infra-red, magnetically controlled cat flaps. This requires your cat to wear a collar that has either an IR, RF chip or magnet encased inside it. Subsequently, any animal that hasn't got one of these special collars can't get into or leave your property. Again this is a fairly simple form of cat flap, because any other cat in the area that's got a similar collar will be able to get into your home. RF cat flaps and collar systems are the best version of this equipment because they can be programmed by the cat owner to recognise a unique identifier, specific to your pet. Providing an additional layer of control and security, this ensures that only your purrfect companion gets access.

Installing a cat flap that can be operated by your pet's microchip, is the next step-up in access security for felines. The memory of these cat flaps can be programmed with one or even multiple microchip details (if you have more than one cat), to give exclusive access. Whenever your cat passes close to the flap, it unlocks and allows just your microchipped pets to exit or enter.

Being able to lock it in position is essential no matter what cat flap you're buying. The majority of cat flaps sold today feature a four way locking mechanism. This means that it has the capability to be locked fully, allow only exit from your home, allow access into your premises only, or be put in 2-way entry and exit mode. This provides total control over how your cat flap works both throughout the day and during the night. The ability to carry out different functions in accordance with the time of day, and in line with yours and your cat's needs is also a possibility with some of the more expensive models of cat flap.

If you are pretty good at do-it-yourself, installing a cat flap shouldn't be too difficult, as long as you've got a solid timber door on your property in Wincanton. Under no circumstances should you attempt to install a cat flap in a reinforced uPVC door or in a double glazed window panel. This sort of installation requires the attention of an expert, and there are specialist cat flap installers and skilled carpenters who will be glad to accept such work.

INSTALLING A CAT FLAP IN WINCANTON

Double Glazing Installation - If your new cat flap needs to be mounted on a double glazing panel, and your appointed "tradesman" attempts to drill a hole in it, stop the work immediately and show them the gate. New cat flaps can not be installed into existing double glazed window or door panels. Any type of double glazed unit will be ruined by drilling a hole in it, and will detract from its security, insulating attributes and strength. Your double glazing will be rendered unsafe, and it should never be done in any circumstances whatsoever.

A trustworthy Wincanton cat flap fitter will meticulously take the precise measurements of your current unit and order a custom-made one from a local glazing company. So that your cat flap can be snugly fitted into it, this new double glazing panel will be provided with a hole pre-cut as a part of its structure. You may have a 1 or 2 week wait for this special pane to be made, but if it's necessary to have a cat flap installed into a pre-existing patio or double glazed door, this is really the only way to do it. Once you've received your new glass pane, the old one can be taken out and the new one installed. The cat flap can then be put in.

External Wooden Doors - Wooden door panels are, as previously mentioned, the easiest alternatives for cat flap installation in Wincanton. If you are somewhat uncertain about creating a sizeable hole in your front or back door, you might be happier hiring a specialist handyman or cat flap fitter instead. A project of this type should not be expensive and will provide you with peace of mind that your pet has a professionally installed flap.

uPVC Door Panels - uPVC doors can be sometimes be suitable for a cat flap. Nonetheless, certain uPVC door panels have got a steel lining for further security, which could cause issues. A one-piece door panel allows for easier installation, so if you have a slatted type uPVC door panel, it may be less expensive to exchange this panel for a single pane style.

Wall Installation - It's also a possibility to have a cat flap mounted into an external wall of your home in Wincanton, if you don't wish to cut holes in your doors, for aesthetic or security reasons. This form of installment is definitely best left to a specialist, since it requires considerably more skill and equipment to execute. There are several possibilities for this installation, including a straight-through tunnel version, or a right angular (through pillar) adaption. This installation calls for a neat square hole being made through your wall, into which a metal or plastic, open ended square insert is fitted. A cat flap of your choice is then mounted on either end to allow your furry pal to come and go as it wishes.

Replacing Your Existing Cat Flap in Wincanton - If your window, door or wall 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. You local cat flap installer will be able to take off the old cat flap, without causing damage to the door, wall or window, and install a new flap for your cat.

Before installing the new cat flap in double glazing that's been pre-cut, making certain that the existing glass has been cut and installed in the right way is essential. If it's found that corners were cut with the previous installation, the panel must be removed and substituted to avoid any security and safety issues with the new cat flap.
