Hi, I've been asking around and most of the window dealer/contractor said at least $3-4k to install this type of window. I'm looking not more than $1k. I don't need good and expensive material. I just want a window that has no other features but a window. Attached image(s)

I don't need good and expensive material. I just want a window that has no other features but a window. Obviously the cost of the window depending on the size of it. I am not sure what is your dimension so can't comment on the price. One thing for sure if you have a large area it won't be cheap even with standard casement window. Mine is 8x6ft and 8x4ft for the kitchen and is definitely more than that! This post has been edited by bhtan: Jun 2 2011, 09:54 AM

Aluminum window is depends mainly on this items :-
A) Aluminium profile and thickness
B) aluminum coating (powder coated, N.A or etc)
C) glazing thickness and tinted
Maybe you can ask your contractor to specified this items prior making any decision..
Hope this help.. Cheers

Few more thing to take note :- A) quantity of the window B) location as well as the height of the window location By the way, how about hacking and demolition of the existing wall? Included?

Sorry fren, in this case I guess you are not familiar with Aluminium product or maybe your contractor trying make a fast want.. This post has been edited by sl2007: Jun 2 2011, 10:11 AM

Hi Vincent,
I'm sorry to say that I can't provide you any contact.. Actually I'm a consultant in Construction industry.. Since I'm on a long holiday now, just try to help out anyone herewith..
By the way, there is another trick on this, does your Contractor include Sub-Frame?
Feel free to drop me a PM if you need any assistant, cheers...

you didn't mention any dimension, but i just made one for my toilet push up from bottom to top .. got my indonesian guy to do it .. the glass panel cost rm110 .. plus workmanship another 50-80 bucks ...
i also got a quote from reliance metal industries recently,
size 30" x 60" rm550 size 30 x 69 rm695 size 30 x 37 rm280
this is customized size for my drying area which is currently just using grilles.
i have yet to compare the prices with other alternatives.

The boss'a name is Tam Poon Sing, an elderly hakka man. 019-2102492. On hindsight, the price for the larger window -- which i did only a replacement glass which cracked, cost rm190 much more than a totally new much smaller toilet window at rm110. But i am happy with the overall price. Try to nego. This was my first time there, for your info.  Parking is a real prob by the way.  Happy renovating! Attached thumbnail(s)
