Villas and conversions
Converted villas around Lord Street and Birkdale often have garden flats where a flap may be possible with the freeholder's consent.
Bungalows and the coast
Bungalows and semis in Ainsdale and Churchtown usually have cavity walls. Homes near the coast face strong westerly winds, so a well-sealed flap helps.

Questions from homeowners in Southport
Can a flap go in a bungalow wall?
Often, yes. We check the wall construction first.
I rent. Can I have a cat flap?
Only with your landlord's written permission. A flap in a replaceable door panel is often the easiest to agree.
