bb_1314 0 Report post Posted April 5, 2013 so guess u are right. at least compared to an ID, i've nothing to depend on and will take the effort to see for myself.at least he doesnt tell me "it's like that one" yet.Mine is ID. But I still go to see my place everyday, & saw surprises everyday. ID got pros & cons. Cons is that message pass to ID--> ID talk to tiler/carpenter etc boss --> boss talk to his worker. By the time the worker receive the info it's all different from what I told the ID. Faint... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faint...Im at my new place now. And I realised the storeroom door is of a lower grade than the other room doors. Is this standard? The storeroom door feels like just four pieces of plywood stapled together to form a hollow plank. I can see the staples and they are using plaster to cover up. Can anyone ley me know if their store room door is also like that? Or supposed to be same material and quality as the other room doors? Thanks all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks all!By room doors, do you mean the main door to the room, or the doors of the wardrobes in the rest of the house? My storeroom doors are the same thickness and quality as the wardrobe doors in the rest of the house, but of course not as solid as the main doors to the rooms. No matter what, I don't think u're supposed to see the staples! Edited April 6, 2013 by summersann Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ment0s 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2013 Same as summer. All the doors in the house are the same for my case. We choose solid doors for the whole house. So no it's not different neither do we see staples. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The door should be assembled before the install at you house right? Coz for our doors they brought it in complete 1 piece and only lacquer there. That's all.

Maybe pictures can explain better than I can The room doors are solid doors. The storeroom doors are slimmer, so they take up less space, and are the laminated type (plywood?) that's the same as the wardrobe doors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z3phy 2 Report post Posted April 8, 2013 Thanks summer, jus4fun and ment0s for your replies.i took photos and sent to my contractor liao. he say he will come and take a look. i sent him these photos!My cables have been rectified to CAT 6. so that's settled.door lock, fridge and the "up down" hanger will be up/done this Saturday. hopefully.we're getting the EZ hanger. 6 pole at $438. not sure how good. but it's the lowest price comparing to all the other hangers... and this does wat we require. time passes so fast. 2 more weeks and gonna be handover soon. Here's what my place look like now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We didn't change the doors and used the original ones, only painted over the original glossy brown wood.Anyway, your doors should definitely not have staples showing, regardless of quality or price! Good that you got your contractor to address it Handover soon! More pictures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So maybe yours can also do that! But of course, finishing fast is one thing, we don't want them to finish fast with tonnes of things to rectify later it's neat, for now. we'll just have to make the effort to keep things back where we took them and not buy things unnecessarily unless we need them. that's why storage is important. wait till you see the insides of our storage areas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
