Next, use a jigsaw to cut out the hole. Follow the line you've drawn with care taking your time, and making sure that you only remove the material needed. After you have removed the material, test the flap by pushing against it and making sure that it closes and opens smoothly. If it does not you, it is essential to note that and make use of a file or a rasp to alter the size.
Then, you can insert the flap in the hole. Utilize the bolts included in the pack to secure it into the hole. After the flap has been inserted, apply any sealant recommended to ensure your door is protected from wind, rain and cold.

It is relatively simple to install the cat flap on doors made of wood, however it can be a challenge if you're working with a composite or uPVC door. A poorly installed cat flap can leave your home vulnerable to unwanted visitors, and could cause drafts. In some cases you might need to replace the entire door if you don't take your time and make sure that everything is done correctly.
Fitting a cat flap on a uPVC is simple when you're comfortable with a jigsaw. It is necessary to measure the door in order to ensure that the cat flap will fit your cat.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to fit the flap into double-glazed doors, since the glass sealed unit would need replacement. Instead, a short uPVC panel could be used to assist in supporting the flap and give it the required reinforcement. The panel can be painted to match your existing colour scheme. MDF, which is a medium density fibreboard, is also used to strengthen uPVC panels. It can be painted or coloured to resemble wood.
