Okay, so I just drilled the hole at each corner of the square I need to cut out of my door to fit a capflap, only to find that the dman thing is made of steel... To be more precise, the outter skins of the door (inside and outside) are made from I'd say 1.5mm thich steel, with a filling of rigid (expanded?) foad in between.
I've bent a couple of hacksaw blades trying to cut out the square (using the hacksaw blade on it;s own like a regular woodworking saw) and I am now fairly sure that's not a go-er.
Will a jigsaw with the right blades (TC?) be upto the job, or will I need something more fancy. The missus is going to realise any moment now that we have 4 12mm holes in out back door, and no chance that the catflap is going to be fitted today ;-)
Cheers
Chris
