You just need to get your ID to install the glass door 'stopper' for both of your doors. The stopper can be installed either at top or side. For both of our glass door, we got them to install the stopper at the top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macbart 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2010 Macbart, wow, u and wify must be really tired doing it back to back... these few days just cleaning the hse after hand over, I still find so dusty and so many things to do at new hse, the cleaning is the scariest part plus checking on the details for rectification. sorry, I blur blur liao, yes we have the same Brandt hob, hehehhe... My hob is directly above my oven and I found the oven top very hot when I On the oven but my hob cable is above the hot oven top... I worry the cable n wires will melt or affected... Is yours the same? Our oven is in a tall kitchen unit, next to the larder. We have two large drawers beneath the hob. Is the hob's cable touching the top of the oven? Is there anything the electrician or carpenter can do to keep the cable clear of the heat from the oven? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catseyes2004sg 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2010 (edited) hi cat..u really cat lei...just because of the operation manual u ask them to remove the fridge ah?! hahaha....i was thinking how many of us read the manual. If i encounter this i surely accept as it is de. I see no reason u really in need of the operation manual ,unless u think they delivered you the 2nd hand or Display fridge? I dun tik I will order fm Everjoint again... the fridge they send, the outer box of fridge is like used and folded kind, and when they took the fridge out already so many fingerprints, I suspend like return goods kind. And the fridge outer stickers are not there. Anyway I am glad they took it back. After that I called Goh Ah Bee and their price same as Everjoint (It was $30 more few days ago). So I told them got manual then I take ok? They assured me sure go manual. The so friendly smiley uncle send me the fridge today, in a brand new box, stickers intact outside the fridge. N uncle even explained to me the usage of fridge like salesman, hehehhehe Edited January 13, 2010 by catseyes2004sg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catseyes2004sg 0 Report post Posted January 13, 2010 I like your mum's idea ;) Better safe than sorry when you have guests over and they push the doors. Nice reno u have there i suggest u get ur ID to install a stopper so when ppl push it will not knock onto ur rainshower. tat wat happen to my frosted glass door in my toilet, when i push, it will hit the toilet bowl..... Hi Cat, Nice reno. Er.. don't need those cute signs. You just need to get your ID to install the glass door 'stopper' for both of your doors. The stopper can be installed either at top or side. For both of our glass door, we got them to install the stopper at the top. Tks to all out there My common toilet has already installed a stopper cos ID noticed abt the knocking on the storage heater tank. But the MBR toilet, he didnt realised it knocked on the rainshower. So I told him and he told me it will take some time to get the stopper and will fix for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No need to count sheep. lol wow, $370(even more x than my ceiling fan liao, haiz) still quite x leh, think most of it came from the installation fee. Was wondering if its hard to install and could the ID have done it instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
