Cat Flaps In Walton-on-Thames

Cat flap fitting in Walton-on-Thames varies depending on where the flap needs to go. Fitting a pet door into a solid timber or uPVC door is straightforward: the correct aperture is cut, the flap is secured, and the frame is sealed to prevent draughts. Fitting a cat flap in glass requires a different approach. A glazier cannot simply cut a hole into an existing sealed unit, because doing so immediately breaks the seal and allows moisture into the cavity. Instead, Montrose Glass supplies a brand-new pane with the aperture pre-cut and the cat flap fitted before installation. That pane is then installed in your existing frame, leaving the window fully weatherproof and thermally efficient.

For Double Glazing, this means a new toughened glass sealed unit is manufactured with the hole already in place, so the double glazed cat flap sits neatly within a properly sealed unit rather than compromising the original. Many of the inter-war and post-war properties in Walton-on-Thames have had replacement uPVC double glazing installed over the decades, and these units are well suited to this approach. We also offer microchip cat flaps, which only open for your registered pet, and locking cat flaps with manual or timer-controlled settings, giving you full control over when your cat can come and go. A glass cutting and fitting service runs alongside the flap installation, so the whole job is handled by one specialist in a single visit where possible.
