What the official figures mean for fitting a pet flap. Figures are for the City of Wakefield district, which includes Castleford, Pontefract and Ossett. These are area-wide figures, so your own home may be quite different. We'll always look at your actual door, glass or wall.

Colliery towns

Terraces built for mining communities in Castleford, Featherstone and South Elmsall usually have back yards, where a cat flap in the back door is straightforward. Many homes are now owned by housing associations.

Wakefield city

Wakefield's centre has Georgian and Victorian buildings in conservation areas, including St John's. Newer estates around the city usually suit a cavity wall flap.

  1. Tell us where you'd like the flap and what type of door, glass or wall it is. Photos help.
  2. We confirm availability for your postcode and send a no-obligation quote.
