31.1%
of homes are detached houses
England average: 22.9%
Detached homes are more common than the English average, which usually means more choice of where a flap can go.
From city terraces to detached villages
In Nottingham, about 16% of homes are detached and 27% terraced. In Rushcliffe, nearly half are detached, and in Gedling, Broxtowe and Newark and Sherwood it's around four in ten. For many detached and semi-detached homes, a flap in a side or utility door, or through a cavity wall, keeps the main back door free.
Former mining towns such as Mansfield and Worksop have many terraced and semi-detached homes from the late 19th and 20th centuries. Their back doors are often replacement uPVC, which takes a flap well with the correct liner.

Questions from homeowners in Nottinghamshire
Is a wall flap better than a door flap?
It depends on the home. A wall flap keeps the door intact and works well in cavity walls; a door flap is usually quicker and cheaper. We'll recommend what suits your property.
Can I have a dog flap in a uPVC door?
Yes, as long as the door panel is large enough for the flap size your dog needs. Larger dog doors may need the panel replaced.
Who handles planning in Nottinghamshire?
Nottingham City Council for the city, and the district councils for the rest of the county. Most rear-door flaps don't need permission, but listed buildings do.
