Installing A Cat Or Dog Door

How does it function?

A skilled DIYer can easily install a dog or cat door installation in single glazing by them.

Making a hole and installing the hatch is a pleasant task, and doing it yourself is really satisfying. However, it is impossible to accomplish this oneself with double glazing. A hole in double glazing causes the gas layer between the two glass panels to no longer be sealed.

The hole may only be created in a workshop or glass factory, not on-site. As a result, you will need to purchase a new window. The window with the hole then needs to be brought to you. Transporting a window with a hole in it is very risky, which is everything from obvious. The glass is exceedingly brittle and is easily breakable as a result of the hole.

Do you now comprehend why not every glazier wants to embark on this project? Nevertheless, we have glaziers who are willing to accomplish this through our own contacts in some situations.

Notably, glass windows and glass doors can also accommodate our wooden cat or dog flaps.

Cat flap made of high-quality glass.

Prior to installing a cat flap, it is crucial to choose high-quality glass. After all, the glass must be capable of absorbing significant temperature changes. Your pet wants to go outside in the winter when it is chilly outside and cosy warm indoors. The animal then removes your glass window's dog or cat flap. The glass, which is only a few centimetres thick, must be able to withstand the impact of the cat flap shutting as well as the drastic temperature fluctuation of about 30 degrees. You should use toughened double glazing to stop the glass from breaking. Avoid buying a new window anytime soon by choosing the best material instead of the cheapest option.

Rectangle or rounded?

Everything depends on you! A rectangular hole is fully viable, contrary to some people's misconceptions that only round holes are feasible. Much nicer than a round opening is a lovely rectangular cat or dog flap.

What kind of material is going to be my glass door?

You might be unsure if wood would look good next to a glass door or window from an aesthetic standpoint. The image shows how effectively a wooden cat or dog flap complements a glass window. Additionally, it's the only way to keep the cold out. Consider a plastic pet door with a thin flap: it's a chilly bridge that will frighten you! Better insulation is provided by our wooden doors.

Do take note! It's important to note that the chip reader is no longer functional if you want to install a dog or cat flap in glass. What should I do right now?

Other issues can arise if a cat flap is installed in a glass door or window. Interference may be caused by the tapes used to seal the double-glazing. The chip reader's antenna no longer functions properly since it either produces no signal at all or the incorrect signal. We have since encountered some glaziers who have found a solution to this issue. Therefore, please pay close attention to this.

What further options exist?

Do you have a door where the pet door can be installed? The same applies to you! The cost of installing a cat or dog flap in a door is quite low because there are no additional expenses. For you, we can complete the installation.

Do you have any plans to install a pet door in your wall? The pet door comes with two flaps as well. They were on opposite sides of the wall, one on the inside. You get an insulating air layer between the flaps as a result. Once more, there are no extra expenses. All of this is done by us.

Technically speaking, we advise choosing the wall option. An insulating air layer is produced between the double flap, which is quite cosy in the winter.
