anyway legate came over to mesaure my customized window grilles

but ive nt decided if i should have veritical or horizontal grilles

nor did i decided if i wants to have it casement or sliding .. they claim casement better cause sliding grilles need to build the track more inside 3cm vs 5cm depth .. hmz ... but sliding grilles are usually more exp then casement right ?

hmz ..

I personally prefer horizontal, cuz I think vertical look like prison.

And I prefer sliding grills... cuz I don't like to have to reach out to close/open the window, also got risk of falling ah... sliding better.

hmz casement is open inwards the house the windows by hdb is casement push out haha so still same effect whether grilles sliding or casement hee ... but anyway most time except cleaning if needed the grilles wont be opened .. actually the guy say 3inch gap gd enough for womans' hand to clean the windows only if impatient then open clean faster whahhahaa at least gt the flexibility and erm more customization?

Btw did u contact legate? how ?

ok to top up i just ordered the lg light strips or ribbon light

2 x 5m reels of rgb 5050 waterproof ip68 ribbon lights 60leds/m (connect together via non soldering connecting clips *for ease of changing the strips) with a RGB RF controller and a 10~12A power supply

1 x 5m reel of rgb 5050 waterproof ip68 ribbon lights 60leds/m with a RGB RF controller and a 5~6A power supply

extra non soldering connecting clips for additional length if needed

10m for my cove light (4 sides in living rm)

5m for my kitchen cabinet (actually 3m needed)

shipping: dhl ..

hopefully my items arrives smoothly and it works .. anyone can tell me whats missing and what else i requires?

PS: For the sake of ease of connectivity, i am a "carrot head"

Damage: ~240SGD after conversion ..

if this works should be getting some more for my MBR bathroom lights .. saw some on renotalk looks soo kewl

settled haulage .. finally agreed price by my id $300 .. but the intresting point to note is in my contract its said

Supply & construct kitchen cabinet base, fridge base & washing machine base including 2 shower kerbs $400

but i still need to pay for the haulage .. which is for cement and sand and waste disposal (quoted $350 by my town council contractor finally my id says he will settle for me at $300) .. hmz so wad exactly am i paying for the first item?

Note: I have no hacking nor doing any walls/paritions .. hmz ..

Have not yet... We're still thinking if we want to keep the existing grills, cuz they are v dirty, and not in the best condition. Just wondering if a wash will help.

Congrats on starting! I am starting on Monday! Here's hoping for a smooth reno for both of us!
