I have an offer for a new (sliding) gate made of a stainless steel frame with aluminium panels
These are the specs:
Frame: Stainless steel (grade 304), Square Hollow Section (SHS) 1.5 mm thickness
Panels: Aluminium 1.0 mm, power-coated
Guide price (with installation) 5,900 per sqm. Discounted price for buying two gates: 4,700 per sqm.
My questions:
Is that a reasonable price for that type of steel?
Is the thickness of the SHS 304 steel sufficient for this type construction (which is basically a rectangular 1.5m x 2.8 m)?
