Professional Cat Flaps Installation in Double Glazing
Give your pet freedom without compromising your home’s security or insulation.
Are you tired of being your pet’s personal doorman? Installing a cat flap is the perfect solution to give your furry friend the independence they crave. At Express Glaziers, we specialize in professional cat flaps installation in double glazing, uPVC panels, and composite doors.
Many homeowners are surprised to learn that you cannot simply cut a hole into an existing double-glazed unit. Because modern glass is toughened for safety, any attempt to cut it post-manufacture will cause the entire pane to shatter. That is why you need a specialist glazier who understands the technical requirements of pet-friendly modifications.
How cat flaps installation in Double Glazing in a Glass Door
To ensure a perfect, weatherproof, and secure finish, our process involves replacing the existing glass unit with a brand-new, factory-cut pane.
Precision Measurement: We visit your property to take exact measurements of your door or window.
Custom Manufacture: A new replacement glass unit is manufactured with a pre-cut hole specifically designed for your chosen cat flap model.
Toughening & Sealing: The glass is toughened in a furnace and then hermetically sealed to maintain your home’s thermal efficiency.
Expert Fitting: Our team returns to remove your old glass and install the new unit, including the cat flap, ensuring a seamless, draft-proof result.
Versatile Solutions for Every Pet
We don’t just work with glass. We also provide expert uPVC door cat flap fitting. If your door has a solid uPVC bottom panel, we can often install a flap directly into the panel or replace the panel entirely for a cleaner look.
We are experienced in installing all major pet door brands and types, including:
Manual Cat Flaps: Simple 4-way locking systems (In, Out, Opened, Locked).
Magnetic Flaps: These react to a small magnet on your cat’s collar to prevent stray animals from entering.
Microchip Cat Flaps: The gold standard for security. We are experts, fitting units that read your cat’s existing ID chip to grant exclusive access.
