Hello, I am in the process of ordering grilles for my house. I was told that it will be more expensive if I use flat thin mild steel bar compared to those hollow mild steel bars. Is this true?

yes..flat thin mild steel is more padat, usually the rate is just slightly maybe extra RM2 per ft. i oso did the flat 1 but u need to consider if you have kids running around and climbing it as it will bengkok easily...Pro - more solid and heavy and look abit invisible  Cons - can bengkok easily if kids start to climb

Thank you, folks for the confirmation. I was told by my contractor that it is 25% more compared to hollow mild steel. Not sure if it is correct or not.

Ya, I reckon that if the flat mild steel bar is too long without support, it will bend easily, but IMO it looks nicer for grilles compared to hollow mild steel bar.
