Cat Flaps In Twickenham

Cat flap fitting in Twickenham covers several different scenarios 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 to the correct size and the flap unit is secured in place. Fitting a cat flap into single glazing follows a similar principle, with the glass cut on site and the flap sealed into position. For a cat flap fitted in glass in Twickenham, our vans are stocked with glass that can be cut and prepared, meaning many installations are completed during a single visit without the need for a return appointment.

When the installation involves a cat flap in double glazing in Twickenham, the process is different. A sealed double glazed unit cannot simply have a hole cut into it on site. Doing so breaks the hermetic seal between the panes, which leads to condensation and misting inside the unit. Instead, Montrose Glass supplies a new toughened glass sealed unit with the cat flap already fitted at the correct position before installation. This replacement pane is then installed into your existing frame, maintaining the thermal performance and weatherproofing of the window. Our cat flap glazier in Twickenham will measure the existing unit during the first visit and arrange the replacement pane, keeping disruption to a minimum. You can also choose from a range of flap types, including a microchip cat flap that only opens for your registered pet, a locking cat flap for added security at night, or a standard four-way locking pet door. Our glaziers can advise on the right option for your property and your cat’s habits.
