Hello, we're a new family to Phuket, living in Chalong.

Looking for some recommendations or references for a handy man to be able to look and figure out how to add bolts/locks for our sliding patio doors and windows. (I'm not handy one bit. )

The kind of bolts that would push up and down into the top and bottom of the window frames. Or any other way to lock our patio doors so someone cant just lift them off the tracks.

I dont speak Thai, but do have a friend who could translate if needed.

Thank you in advance

Darren

Good luck finding one.

Most people don't like to share their handyman here as it's hard to get a good one and might get lost in work elsewhere.

I suggest you employ one fulltime if you live in a villa and multitask him.

Turn him into pool cleaner, gardener, painter and even security guard to hang out at the house all day when break ins are more frequent.

14k doesn't seem expensive when you got him doing everything.

Hell, I even bought my own pest control gear and he takes care of that also.

Break it down and I'm saving by employing one man for all jobs.

A good locksmith can take care of that.
