So this is the back door in my new house.... Is it UPVC? How do I get one of the panels out to replace with a UPVC panel.... Any ideas? I need to get a catflap, a new door seems a little dramatic!!!!

Google it, there are loads of suggested sites and how too videos.

Could you put it through a wall instead? I've done that as only suitable place would have been patio doors and I wasn't prepared to put in a new pane of glass to accommodate it.

 

If you prefer it through the door I think you can get a replacement panel so avoiding you getting an entirely new door.

I have a cat flat in my UPVC door, take the glass panel out, get a piece of UPVC plastic drill all four corners and then cut the panel.

Hi there,

 

yes id like to take the glass out and replace with a UPVC Panel but the question is how, I cant see how to remove the panel??? (See pics) Any ideas?

 

if not I think it might have to go on the front door as there is no outside wall that a flap would go...

Thanks

Just leave a small vent window open in the kitchen.

Both my cats prefered it to the flap..

I had to take the glass out of my front porch, because I bought a large sofa. There are removable clips at one side of the glass.

Have you got a pic of the other side of the door?

Can you secure it so it can't be opened to let a burglar in? If so, I guess this could be a solution but might also make the house pretty cool in winter months!

Unfortunately leaving a window open isn't an option as the only window is massive...

 

The door doesn't seem to have beading, just a black seal. I've taken a normal panel out before (like in the video) but I can't find how these windows are held in

The outside looks exactly the same? No removable beading that I can find:confused:

The door in the pic ,looks like aluminium not pvc , this would involve removing the sash from the door frame ,then unscrewing the sash to remove the glass ,
