Songz 132 Report post Posted February 6, 2014 Not sure if they are suitable for bathroomMaybe I will use all the downlight in the bathrooms and bedrooms.Not sure if they are suitable for bathroom but bedrooms I think it may be a good idea provided they are all the same type for the room By the way I think you really need to do the whole house (If budget allows) from the pictures I see Hope to see more updates ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ks Toh 74 Report post Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) My opinion:Downlights - These look more suitable for commercial use. Depending of course on your design, may not be suitable for your hall or bedrooms. Maybe can use in your toilets etc., and have balance as spares.Door locks - Can re-use but again look more suitable for office doors or our bomb shelter door, unless you want that look. If re-use, can buy and change the lock cylinder.Door closer - Definitely not for the majority of homes. Only suitable for doors which you want closed all the time, which is not the norm for homes.

I will keep you all posted on my selection. Most likely EU brand only. Edited February 7, 2014 by marcel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
