What Does Cat Flap Installation in Exeter Involve?

Cat flap installation in Exeter covers several different scenarios depending on where you want the flap positioned and what the surface is made of. For doors, whether uPVC or timber, a glazier cuts a precise opening and fits the cat flap unit so that it sits flush and seals tightly. For glass installations, the process is different and requires more care. A cat flap cannot simply be cut into an existing pane on site without risking cracks, so the glazier measures the opening and supplies a new pane with the hole already prepared before arriving to fit it.

For a cat flap in double glazing, a completely new sealed unit is made with the cat flap integrated before installation. This is the correct approach for any double glazed cat flap because it preserves the thermal and acoustic performance of the window. The options available include microchip cat flaps, which only open for your registered pet, locking cat flaps with manual controls, and standard flap designs. If you are considering a microchip cat flap, your glazier can advise on the frame thickness required and which units are compatible with glass cutting into a sealed unit. For properties in Exeter with period timber frames, such as those common across Heavitree and St Leonard’s, the glazier will assess the frame condition and confirm the best fitting method before any work begins.

Why Does Professional Cat Flap Fitting Matter in Exeter?

Attempting to cut into an existing sealed double glazed unit yourself, or using an unqualified fitter, almost always leads to a broken seal. Once the seal is compromised, moisture enters the gap between the panes and causes the familiar misting that cannot be cleaned away. The only remedy at that point is to replace the sealed unit entirely, which costs more than having the job done correctly from the start. An ill-fitting flap also creates a draught gap around the frame, lets in rain, and can reduce the security of the door or window.

A qualified cat flap glazier in Exeter supplies a new toughened glass unit with the cat flap already fitted and installs it directly into your existing frame. Toughened glass is required in most low-level glazing positions under building regulations, so using a glazier ensures compliance as well as a weatherproof result. If you have Double Glazing throughout your property, this approach maintains the energy efficiency you already have rather than introducing a weak point. It is also worth noting that many of Exeter’s newer builds on estates such as those around Monkerton already use high-specification sealed units, and fitting a cat flap into these requires the same careful replacement process.

Montrose Glass have experience in installing cat flaps for windows in Exeter to give your pet a custom entrance to your home where needed.

We used Montrose Glass for a construction project in London recently. They were fantastic. Service was great, as was the workmanship. The 2 glaziers are a credit to the company. Also, they turned up and carried out the works during heavy snowfall without complaint. We would definitely recommend them.

I needed to get some work done for quite a while on my house, but kept putting it off - after a couple of calls to Montrose Glass I felt comfortable discussing it and they made it so easy and simple that I\'ve decided to get it all sorted. Great service and I have already got them quoting my mums house and will have no worries referring them on in the future.
