However, it's important to note that installing a cat flap in double glazing is not a job that can be done by yourself, and should be left to the experts.

Once you've selected a cat flap, a specialist cat flap installer should be contacted. They will visit your home to assess the situation and measure the space for the cat flap. They can also advise you on the best sort of cat flap for your needs, taking into account your specific requirements.

To preserve the double glazing unit's integrity and ensure the cat flap's proper installation, the cat flap installer will order a new double glazing unit with a hole cut out for the cat flap.

Once the new double-glazed unit has arrived, the cat flap specialist will revisit your home in Sunninghill to install it. This involves removing the old double-glazed unit and replacing it with the new one. The cat flap installer then installs the cat flap in the hole cut into the double-glazed unit.
