Looking for good contractors? Click here for your request

Tilting door involves a lot of work, hacking is unavoidable, it will damage your flooring and wall holding the door frame when taking down the old door and door frame.

Then lay new floor tile(try to find closest matching tile), re-construct door frame, install new door, i think must be fire grade.

Need HDB approve.

Cannot happy happy tilt the door

Part of the main door frame is embedded into the concrete floor, to tilt the main door will cost you a bomb, new door frame would not be as solid as the original and must get HDB approval.

hmmm...did FSM say he will money-back guarantee if it didn't succeed to prosper u after that ? And if this don't succeed he'll probably suggest tilting windows, move furniture and last house.

is this worth all the trouble? what exactly do you seek then ?

He 'thinks' worth to try to get out of present 'slums', via 'outside-in' methodology.

Can you teach him the 'inside-out' method?

Hi,

Just curious.

Has HDB ever gave approval for this? If yes, is the owner obliged to restore the door to its original state when selling the unit?

Cheers!

One degree tilting already very 'jialat'.

Perhaps residential door design should follow that of air-bridge's, can tilt at any angle till you 'huat huat huat' or 'can't recognise own home'?
