Cat Flaps In Wellingborough

Cat flap fitting covers several different scenarios depending on where you want the flap positioned. In a timber or uPVC door, the installation involves cutting a precise aperture and securing the flap so it fits flush and draught-free. For a cat flap in glass, whether single or double glazed, the process is more involved. Cutting directly into an existing sealed unit breaks the hermetic seal and will cause the unit to mist over permanently, so this is not a viable option. Instead, a Montrose Glass glazier measures the existing pane, prepares a new toughened glass unit with the cat flap already factory-fitted, and installs that replacement pane into your existing frame. The result is a weatherproof, secure installation that meets the same thermal and safety standards as your original glazing.

You have a choice of flap type to suit your household. A microchip cat flap reads your pet’s implanted chip and allows only your cat in, which is ideal if neighbouring cats are a problem. A locking cat flap gives manual control over entry and exit, useful for keeping pets indoors at night. Standard four-way locking flaps are also available. A glazier will discuss the options and confirm which sizes are compatible with your door or glass panel during the on-site assessment. Pet door installation in Wellingborough is a common call-out, and the team carries a range of flap sizes and compatible glass to cover most requests without a return visit.
