Cat Flaps In Leeds

Cat flap fitting in Leeds covers several different installation types depending on where you want the flap positioned. The most straightforward option is fitting into a solid uPVC or timber door, where a hole is cut directly into the door panel and the flap unit is secured in place. Fitting a cat flap in glass in Leeds, however, requires a different approach. Glass cannot simply be drilled or cut on site once it is already installed as a sealed unit, particularly with double glazing. Instead, a glazier supplies a new pane with the hole pre-cut and the cat flap already fitted, then installs that unit into your existing frame. This preserves the integrity of the sealed unit and keeps the window performing as it should.

When it comes to choosing a flap, there are several options worth considering. A microchip cat flap reads your pet’s existing microchip and only unlocks for registered animals, which is particularly useful in terraced streets where neighbouring cats may otherwise wander in. A locking cat flap gives you manual control over entry and exit times. Standard four-way locking flaps are also available. Montrose Glass carries a range of pet door options and can advise on which type suits your frame and your pet on the day of the visit. Because vans are stocked with glass ready to be cut and prepared, many cat flap in glass installations in Leeds are completed on the same visit without the need for a return appointment.
