LV Hi, we got this from Lighcraft @ 33.50 But I believe this kind of downlight shd be quite common (not the same brand thot) and could be found in most light shops.

kiven78 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2009 Yalor, I also think it's expensive. But he say cos I want top-hung only, no bottom track, that's why it cost a little more... but even that... I don't care, will bargain with him again. Simon, yalor, I told him bi-fold door very standard mah, then why mine so different leh... I was very angry with him cos he kept taking side for his sub-con, he shd help me as his customer mah I really regret not getting this done directly from the supplier myself hi may,no offense but i think there might be a slight miscommunication here : from my personal opinion some personal opinions pertain to your bi-fold doors: 1> does the width of door fall under 33inch ( standrad dimension)? 2> Top hung door does cost more but im sure you have sorted it all out before actual installations,so why the big hoo har now. 3> At least they did rectify the glitches (which are common) in the end before hand over which is responsible of them. Anyway i feel happy for you since everything turns out well for u in the end =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmay 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2009 hi may,no offense but i think there might be a slight miscommunication here : from my personal opinion some personal opinions pertain to your bi-fold doors: 1> does the width of door fall under 33inch ( standrad dimension)? - Not sure, but think dimension can't go very wrong since they did measurement before installation. I think I mentioned the design is standard, not the dimension is standard 2> Top hung door does cost more but im sure you have sorted it all out before actual installations,so why the big hoo har now. - No hoo har, bargaining with contractor is part and parcel of the renovation process, and it's just a loud thots, have yet to bargain with him yet... 3> At least they did rectify the glitches (which are common) in the end before hand over which is responsible of them. - Rectify.... hmmm... frankly Henry didn't even talk abt rectification. He just got someone else to re-do the bi-fold door... and I hv to pay for it... so.... what is 'rectify the glitches'.... Anyway i feel happy for you since everything turns out well for u in the end =) Pls see my reply above. Think I've mentioned and I don't deny the fact that that there were some miscommunication btw me and Henry regarding the bi-fold door. I also did admit that it's my fault for not checking / ask for sample / drawings etc for the look of the bi-fold door... A blog is a place where we voice our thots aloud, and I appreciate your time in reading mine. I gathered that since you are also using Henry, you would want to know what's going on with the rest of the Henner club's reno. So far my experience with Henry has been a good one, just some things I thot we shd be careful abt when communicating to our respective contractor/ID.

Hope u guys reno shun shun li li Hi Simon, no worries, not fighting Anyway, the guys came to install the bi-fold door today. He got a shock and thot he went to the wrong hse, hahaha... He say 'install liao mah, why ah?' Kekekeke, so we explain lor... but hor, he say he feels the 'old' one is better then the 'new' one he's installing, think he mentioned something abt the one being square edge and the other is round edge, really don't understand. But he somehow acknowledge that the 1st set of door is of better material (They are from 2 different company)... so now the 2 extra bi-fold door sitting in the toilet don't know what to do with them... Henry called and discuss abt the door thingy... he say... hmm... you think we can split this... or you can top up $xxx... but if you only willing to pay as little as $20 I also ok one.... Initally I really don't intent to pay anything, cos feel that it's not my fault... but later think think aiya, I also got fault mah, I never ask to see design and assume... so his thot different fr mine mah... so not entirely his fault too. So top up a nice nice $xxx figure for him lor... Anyway, it's over and I'm quite happy with the look of the door It's like your lor Simon, nice nice Today, the solid top for the kitchen is up too, will try to post pix later Cheers Edited December 8, 2009 by dmay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
