    How to Replace an Old Cat Flap Without Damaging Your Door or Glass

    Start by measuring the existing hole, not the old flap. Most standard cat flaps use a 170mm circular cut-out, so a like-for-like swap is straightforward. If the new flap is larger you can enlarge the aperture in uPVC, composite, wood and aluminium — but never in glass, where a new pre-cut toughened panel is the only option.

Triple glazing adds around £120–£200 to the cost versus double glazing and takes 2–4 weeks for the new unit. Here's exactly how the process works and what to expect.
