To ensure your cat has unhindered access through the Cat Flap,
measure the height from their tummy to the floor. Mark this
height on your wall, as this is where the bottom of the hole
should be cut through the wall. Note: If there is a large drop
on the outside of the house you will need to place a step
outside for your pet to access the tunnel.
Attach a ball of Blu Tack (or similar adhesive putty) to each
rear corner of the external frame so that you can stick it to
the wall and use it as a template.
Stick the external frame to the wall using the mark you made
for the height of your cat's tummy to align the bottom edge
of the hole. Use a spirit level to ensure the frame is level,
then run a sharp pencil around the inside edge of the frame.
Now mark the centre of the drawn area, this will be used as
a reference point. Before you start to cut the hole remove
the Cat Flap from the area to minimise the amount of dust
the product is subjected to.
Using the appropriate power tool and drill bit for your wall
(please consult a builder to identify the appropriate tools),
drill a hole all the way through the wall at the centre point
you marked. We advise you have somebody assisting you
with a vacuum cleaner, so as not to fill the room with dust.
Now, from the outside of your house, use the drilled hole as
a reference and stick the external frame to the wall. We advise
that you stick the external frame a few millimetres lower
than the inside to allow for any rain collected in the tunnel
to run back outside.
Back on the inside of the house; whether you are cutting
through brick, wood, tiles or plaster, you should drill some
pilot holes, firstly around the perimeter of the line you have
drawn and then in the middle of the marked area. The holes
around the perimeter should be touching the inside of
the line and the holes in the centre should go all the way
through the wall to help with the cutting process.
