Professional Cat Flap Installation in Melbourne
A cat flap installation gives your cat controlled access to outdoor areas while keeping your home secure, neat, and weather protected. Kandus Glass installs cat doors into suitable glass doors, windows, and other access points for Melbourne homeowners who want a clean finish without damaging the look of their property.
The right cat door setup depends on where the access point sits, the type of glass, the size of your cat, and how you want the flap to lock. Some glass panels may need a new pane prepared with the correct cut out, especially when the existing glass cannot be safely altered on site.
Our glaziers assess the door or window before recommending the best option. Once the correct cat flap and panel requirements are confirmed, the installation is completed with attention to fit, sealing, movement, and everyday use, so your cat can move in and out safely without leaving your home exposed.

Why Install a Cat Door in Your Melbourne Home?
A cat door gives your cat regular access to an outdoor area, courtyard, enclosed run, or garden without relying on someone to open the door every time. For busy households, that simple change can make daily routines easier, especially when your cat likes moving between indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the day.
The right cat flap also helps you control access. Lockable cat doors can keep your cat inside at night, limit access during bad weather, or stop the flap being used when you do not want it open. That matters for homes where security, weather sealing, and indoor comfort are still important.
Installation quality makes a big difference. A poorly fitted cat door can leave gaps, affect the look of the door or window, or create issues with movement and sealing. Kandus Glass checks the access point, glass type, panel size, and preferred position before recommending the most suitable installation option.
Types of Cat Doors We Install in Melbourne
The best cat door depends on your cat’s size, the access point, the glass type, and how much control you want over entry and exit. Kandus Glass can assess your door, window, or glass panel and recommend an option that suits your home without leaving a rough cut out or poor seal.
Some installations are simple. Others need a new glass panel prepared with the correct opening before the cat flap can be fitted. That is why photos and measurements are useful before quoting.
Standard Cat Flaps
Standard cat flaps are a practical option for cats that need regular access to a courtyard, garden, balcony area, or enclosed outdoor space. They suit many homes where the main goal is simple movement in and out.
These cat doors can be selected based on your cat’s size, the access point, and the type of panel being used. Locking options may also be available if you want to control when your cat can go outside.
Lockable Cat Doors
Lockable cat doors give you more control over your cat’s access. You can keep the flap closed at night, during bad weather, or when you do not want your cat going outside.
This option is useful for Melbourne homes where security, weather sealing, and indoor comfort still matter. Kandus Glass can check whether the lockable cat door you want is suitable for the selected door, window, or glass panel.
Cat Doors For Glass Panels
Cat doors can be fitted into suitable glass doors, fixed glass panels, and windows, but the glass type needs to be checked first. In many cases, the safest option is to prepare a replacement glass panel with the correct cut out for the cat flap.
This matters because some glass cannot be cut after it has already been manufactured. A proper assessment helps avoid cracked glass, poor fitting, and an untidy finish.
Sliding Door Cat Door Options
Sliding door cat door options are useful when your cat needs access through a patio door, laundry door, or rear access point. The right setup depends on the track, frame, glass panel, and available space.
Kandus Glass can assess whether a cat flap can be installed into the glass panel or whether another option makes more sense for your sliding door setup.
Custom Cat Door Installation
Some homes need a more specific setup because of panel size, glass type, frame layout, or the position of the preferred access point. Custom cat door installation helps match the cat flap to the property instead of forcing a standard option into the wrong place.
This can be useful for unusual windows, fixed glass panels, larger cats, or homes where the cat door needs to look clean from both inside and outside.
FAQs
Can a cat door be installed into glass doors or windows?
Yes, a cat door can be installed into many glass doors, fixed glass panels, and windows, but the glass type needs to be checked first. Some glass cannot be cut after it has been manufactured, so a replacement glass panel may be needed with the correct cat door opening prepared in advance.
Kandus Glass can assess your door or window from clear photos before confirming the best installation option.
Will installing a cat door affect my home’s insulation or energy efficiency?
A properly fitted cat door should not leave large gaps or loose edges around the opening. The final result depends on the cat door model, the glass panel, the seal, and the quality of the installation.
Poor fitting can let in draughts, rain, or outside air. That is why the access point needs to be measured correctly and the cat flap needs to suit the panel it is being installed into.
How do you get the right measurements for a cat door installation?
The right measurements depend on your cat’s size, the height of the glass panel, the frame position, and where your cat naturally steps through. Photos of the full door or window, close photos of the panel, and basic size details help Kandus Glass assess the job before quoting.
For glass installations, accurate measurement is especially important because the cat flap opening may need to be prepared in a new glass panel.
Will a cat door installation damage my existing door or wall?
A professional installation should not leave unnecessary damage when the right method is used for the surface. For glass doors or windows, the existing glass may not always be suitable for direct cutting, so a replacement panel may be recommended instead.
This approach helps avoid cracked glass, rough edges, poor sealing, or an untidy finish around the cat flap.
How long does the installation process take?
Timing depends on the glass type, panel size, cat door model, and whether a replacement glass panel is required. Some installations can be completed quickly once the right materials are ready, while glass panel work may need extra preparation before installation day.
The fastest way to confirm timing is to send photos of the access point, your suburb, and the type of cat door you want installed.
