New Doors

[JohnC]

Can anyone recommend where I can buy a new secure front door in Pattaya ? The current one can be opened with a matchstick!

The windows probably need only a toothpick? I know mine do.

I just bought Wood doors from a place on Sukhumvit, on the left heading to Jomtien, more or less opposite Pattaya Nua - North Pattaya Road, just a litt le furthe up, there OK! Not cheap - Not Amazing either but servicable.

Cheers

Yes I bought one from there once, when they finished it with laquer they totaly screwed it up, also when I got it fitted I found that the top cross brace fitted into the side frame with a mortice and tennon joint, but when you look at the door edge on you can see the end grain of the top brace sticking through.

They have different quality doors and if I had bought the better one it wood (Joke) not have warped and opened up on the joints either.

My builder friend swears by the doors in Homemart or is Homepro, the one next to Carefore store in town. He says they are first class and do not warp or shrink. A bit more expensive I tink but probably worth it.

Cheaper option of course is to buy bolts for the inside and a dead lock.

I never got them to laquer mine, got someone else to make an Arse of it, apart from being a shitty colour, they appear to be holding up ok, guess it will be interesting to see what happens when the weather changes?
