Hi to Mickoe and Sunboi

Ur doors cost only1k plus?

I got quoted from patrick for timber sliding door at 1800 each... 8ft by 7ft... is it considered expensive? since u guys got ur doors at 1000 plus only right??? i wanted 2 some more... but i was thinking that i might have to do without it cuz it's 2k each.

how come ur pricing so different?? help help!!

you may want to check on the design, material, etc. Is there any glass panels etc?

im making a L shape kitchen cabinet, and patrick suggest to build a short tiled wall behind the L shape cabinet. Purpose is water will not flow downwards. But other ID tell me can just make a pane of glass (cheaper). No need tiled wall, which is more exp. Any one face this issue before?

Also Pat says better construct sink support with hollow block below the kitchen. Its optional, but recommended. Is it good? Its exp - costs $400

Mint : Yes. Construct glass is cheaper but glass will crack. Tiles although wil crack too but they can withstand higher temperature than glass. i did mine with a stainless steel cover.

I also did te sink support. i heard alot of ppl regarding water slipping into the cabinates....so i did tat as well...

mayb yur sink bigger leh..... :yamseng:

Yup. I also did sink support.... But I think glass backing is easier to maintain compared to Stainless Steel backing. As for tile backing, I feel should be the most tedious to maintain due to the grout between the tiles... If the tiles got pattern, ie, uneven surface, dirt may collect even easier. Thats my 2 cents worth of view....

mine is got tile bhind then put te stainless steel over it. i did ask patrick abt te pros n cons for both. in te end we choose ss cos we afraid that in long term, te glass will crack. i got a friend who did te glass, beri nice....

While I agree that SS backing may be more durable. but cleaning of SS backing, as far as I know, is quite difficult. Anyway like you mentioned, both SS and glass has its pros and cons. :P
