Whether its a French door leading onto your patio to make the best of the garden area or the very latest Apeer composite door in an elegant black finish for the front of your house, you will find the right door for your specific needs at McLeods. The Mcleods Roofline system eliminates the need for costly and time-consuming maintenance by removing existing timber and replacing it with high quality UPVC.  Eaves and soffits not only influence the aesthetics of any home, they also allow airflow to circulate around cavities and the roof space, preserving dry rot and other timber infestations. It’s an ongoing battle to keep the roofline looking good by painting and varnishing existing wood and inevitably that’s costly and time-consuming.  The McLeods Roofline system solves those problems by giving the property a fantastic fresh, clean look whilst encouraging airflow and reducing ongoing maintenance costs. - Dog Bowls & Feeders - Dog Medicines & Healthcare - Dog Flea Treatments

To fit your cat flap correctly you will need the following tools: Measure how Heigh Your Cat Flap Needs to be Firstly measure your cat against the door to see how high the cat flap should be from the floor so that it can easily get out. Measure the distance from the floor to the underside of the cats tummy. Transfer this measurement onto the door which is going have the cat flap fitted, and, using a small spirit level mark a horizontal line, in light pencil across the door.




Mark the Centre of the Door To find the centre of the door your should measure the width of the door and divide by two. Mark an "x" on this point on the door as this will be where the centre of the cat flap is. Always remember to measure twice and cut once! Mark the Cat Flap Outline on the Door Next, using the template in the instructions, mark the appropriate sized circle or square (depending on the shape of your cat flap) on the door using your ″X″ as the centre of the circle or square. What if I Have no Instructions? If for any reason you do not have the instructions you will need to dismantle the cat flap and mark out the opening on paper in order to measure the required hole diameter. Ensure that you draw your shape, be it a circle or square, accurately on your piece of paper. If it's a square ensure that your shape is actually square (you can do this by measuring the diagonals between corners, they should be the same) and if a circle, it is actually a circle and not slightly ellipse.




Drill Holes for Your Jigsaw Blade Drill a hole slightly larger than the width of your jig–saw blade so that the edge of the drilled hole is right on edge of the line of your shape on the door. The ideal drill bit to use here is a flat bit around 10mm. If your shape is square, drill a hole just inside each corner and if your shape is a circle you may be able to get away with drilling one hole at the top. If not, divide the circle into sections by drilling holes top, bottom, left and right. Cutting out Your cat flap Shape With your holes in place you can now start cutting out your shape. In an ideal situation you would remove the door and place it on a flat, level surface to do your cutting but sometimes this is not possible so we will assume that the door cannot be removed and you will have to cut it in situ. Push the jigsaw blade through one of the holes you previously drilled and ensure the base plate is flat and level on the face of the door and begin to cut, following your line and closely as you possibly can.




If you have a paneled door, as shown in the images below do not cut through the door mullions or vertical rails. Place the cat flap in the centre of one of the panels. Do not attempt to push the jig–saw to make it cut faster. Let the blade and the motor do the work and you can then just guide the blade around to get a perfect circle or smooth–sided square. A word of warning here: Some cats like to nudge themselves up against the door to let their owners know they are waiting to come in. Check the other side of the door before you start to drill and cut!! When you have cut the hole, use a piece of sand–paper to smooth off the edge of the cut. Don't forget all of these instructions apply to uPVC doors as well as timber doors! If you are indeed cutting a uPVC door, make sure that you are using the correct blade in your jigsaw. If in doubt, ask for advice on blades at your local DIY store. Check the Flap Swings Smoothly With the hole cut out, place the flap section up against the door and push the flap open to make sure it's a smooth action and it does not bind on anything.




If it does, make note of where it is binding and use a file or rasp to adjust the size of the hole as required. There are many different kinds of cat flap but all are fairly self explanatory from a fitting point of view as, usually, there is only one way they can go together. The section with the flap should always go on the outside of the door as this will provide the best protection from the elements as you don't want the insides of the door to be exposed to, too much wind and rain as this will rot the door if it is timber. The manufacturers instructions should state this. Place the flapped section up against your door so that it sits exactly where you would like it to go and use your pencil to mark each fixing hole. Remove the flap and then drill your holes. It's also a good idea to use a little sealant to make the external joints between door and cat flap water–tight and if the joint between the door panel and mullion has been stretched at all by the jig–saw vibration, it may be as well to make good with some decorators caulk.
