n3xt: I have 104” width by 60” depth space for my master bathroom. I ended with this small space because I carved out my safe room from it which is a ridiculous 12’ x 12’. Do you think I can fit both a standing shower and a bath or I should just go for a shower alone. I doubt they have bathtubs in 5’ length. Edit: space is jut for shower and tub. Not including WC and basin. 1 Like |

30sqm = 17 cartons 9sqm = 5 cartons 8sqm = 5 cartons 38sqm = 27 cartons 16sqm = 12 cartons 22sqm = 16 cartons These quantities are based on the assumption that you're using 40 x 40 having 12pcs in a carton and 25 x 40 having 15pcs in a carton. Included also is allowance for waste and breakages. Laudbtc: |

InvertedHammer: Actually you might quote so for “fit in burglary” If it’s kind of “covered burglary” this type of burglary do extends beyond the wall opening size i.e if your window opening is 1200*1200 then the burglary will be 1300*1300 size. ( This design is very common is eastern part bcs of the size of block they used mostly there (6” block) it doesn’t accommodated burglary and window in Most cases. 1 Like |

michlins: There are those who see you geninuely and there are others who don't. Because there are challenges in built environments, the most important obligation of a contractor is to satisfy the needs of the client. There are times it comes to near satisfaction but in this nearness it should be something that will not disrupt the client's sleep. Just take all that's happening to be a learning process and try to know how you deal with every client ensuring you give them what will appeal to them delighting in every detail. I am not holding brief for you and neither for the client. Reason is that judging by the pix posted by the client your fabrication with is in order except the client wants the frames hidden in block/mortar. Another reason is that when a door is said to be of custom made and design it meets the exact size with little or no need for adjustments. The above is one of the reasons I do a door opening of 1000mm instead of 900mm. |

What I can't do however is sell my self respect and dignity to appease someone. My goal is to deliver quality service while making honest living 3 Likes |

Enyinne: Wow! After watching the video, I think it’s safe to conclude that the Contractor didn’t do right. The size of the door with frame is 2ft 9inches (33 inches) and not 3ft (36 inches) which was exactly what the client ordered. For me there’s no justification for this error and I agree that the vendor should make full refund for this. Sincere apologies @eyinne for the inconveniences this might have caused you. 7 Likes

michlins: To be honest, I didn’t understand it that way. I thought she wanted more than 3ft. The space left for the door is exactly 3ft. I think the door should fit into that space and not be reduced for whatsoever reason. That size of door is toilet size and not fit to serve as a main entrance door. As a matter of fact, we are only managing 3ft door for entrances. 4ft (single opening) door or larger door is just about the acceptable size. She won’t be able to bring sofas or a double door fridge through that door. ________ Here’s a door I have on a personal project. The door itself minus the frame is 32 inches.

Pls kindly help me here. Maybe I’ve lost touch with modern day realities. If main entrance door is 2ft 9 inches wide, what size will a toilet door be? |

n3xt: Even at that it's a no no for a main entrance door to be of that size. And of what good use is going for custom size..... Some years ago I did a renovation for my family house. When I removed the wooden toilet/bathroom doors and took measurement of door opening it came out full 1000mm. I had previously asked the price for a toilet door without giving out any dimension/measurement. When I later sent the exact measurement to the GMP guy there was an increase in price and I had to pay. I only to do exactly what I gave him or give an allowance of 1" clearance on both sides of the door. 2 Likes |
