hi all, i was being quoted RM5,000 for a 7'x7' powder coated aluminium folding glass door. is this price reasonable? normally how do they calculate? by sqft?

yes, they calculate by sqft. depends on which frame/glass/imprint/tint that you choose.

the previous rate i know from homedec by honglee is 75/sf that was in oct-nov.

You need to know what is the quality, thickness of glass, thickness of aluminum, Lock, hinge.. All this make price so much difference. From RM 30++ to RM 100++ / square feet.

How about the quality and the strenghten? Since the frame is aluminium holding the glass and always sliding moving, the toughness and strengthen need to be strong. And the locking device too.

Well if quality is your priority then go for the brand Fujisash.
Solid construction with cleverly concealed hinges, exceptional
sound proofing, minimal air/odour transfer and water sealed.
Its Japanese technology with a factory in Butterworth and a sales/
marketing office in SS23 Tmn SEA PJ.

I nearly opted for Fascina which is Upvc construction but decided to
go for Fujisash due to the savings. Nearly 65k was spent on folding/
sliding doors & windows for my hse reno.....no regrets.

Is it including installation?

RM65k ! I will regret.

I intruduce by a Japanese salesman about their YKK folding doors and windows. Famous and common in Japan. The windows and door look tough and the parts look different from ordinary folding door.

Eh... I thaught YKK is famous of their zip.

Many type of folding spread malaysia market which alot of it is self modified just to save costing.(try modified a kancil become BMW 5 series then u know what i mean)Aluminium brand name like Fujisash and LB are most practical all time and the most important is free maintenance.While installer with superb quality finishing is like Premium window, Le diament i saw before their job is like this ( but aint cheap) So choose wisely ask from your installer what kind of aluminium they using and what kind of roller,lockset,hinges and flush butt.Good luck
Price range 30 to 80 per sqft might get you modified thing while 100 to 180 per sqft will get you nice quality folding door.

what's the actual size? thinking of doing something similar.

can share where you get this? currently looking for sliding door to replace the current one, any website for your door supplier?

I was quoted Onitek sliding door for my Kitchen Base Aluminium Sliding Door 2 x 4 fts RM450
Bathroom folding door RM330
And a dark tinted Aluminium sliding window RM450 with hole for ventilation fan.
expensive?

I saw the aluminium glass door at homedec - reliance home and sun way aluminium. Definitely sun way was better, very solid. The price from sun way is rm100 per sqft, and rm120 per sqft if painted like wood grain. I was quoted by my contractor for rm160 per sqft for LB aluminium. Not sure what is the difference.

Hello
We are door supplier in Malaysia,
You can visit our website for different type of door:
For Sliding Door, Folding Door, Aluminium Door and Glass Door
Thank you.

Guys i like the big folding door like some poster above have shown. It give a lot of natural lighting and when open up can give spacious kind of feeling. However my concern is on security. It will be ugly to grill the big door and it beats the purpose of having unobstructed view to my garden. Any suggestions how do you guys overcome the security issues?

Hi,
Does anybody have a security comparison between Fujisash and AMAX (316 stainless steel mesh door from Australia). I'm interested in getting a security door to replace my glass aluminium door. I don't want to put in a grille (it'll look very ugly).

I've not been able to get any reliable information on Fujisash at all, but AMAX was in the recent home fair in Sunway and I'm planning to visit their showroom in Kota Damansara soon.

Fujisash, contact SKB Shutters located in Kota Dsara

Thanks. I visited their website and it seems like they'll be in Archidex. Looks like I have a few stalls to visit there

another option
http://arxtech.com.my/web/

Thanks! Quite far though, in Sungai Buloh...hmmm. I look at their catalog first.

go to archidex next month for promo
they are part of Sunway/Optima windows
the good thing about their doors, all the hinges are hidden, you cant see the hinges on either side
its very well made.

dont go to Sungai Buloh there, its not a showroom and you will never find that place LOL cause I went there before, its like really out in the boonies

Great . I just called Jerry and we're arranging an appointment. In terms of rough quotation, the pricing is equivalent to Amax, but it does have glass.

glass and mesh together? how much per sq ft?
jerry was my sales person too

Nah, glass is ~ RM80/sqft, mesh is RM125/sqft. Now it's only whether I trust Australian, Italian, or Japanese products more....

I need a more detailed look at their design.

Hi all,

Pls PM details, price and Contact. I am keen to get aluminium sliding mosquito door, and exploring replacing my aluminium glass sliding door.

Thanks

You can contact Arxtech (posting a few posts above). I got a quote of roughly RM 125/sqft. It's likely to range from RM70 to RM 145 / sqft, depending on how secure you want the mosquito door, and the design.

What did u get? Can share with picture ??

Well, I didn't get it. My wife thinks it's too expensive. For my side door, it reached 13k.....

I need more $$$ first.

Just visited Fujisash, it is not "mesh steel" sliding door but soft mesh similar to insect screen.

Hi guys,

anybody know how much will it cost to have this sort of door?

You can check out arxtech, web link is posted here, in earlier posts. Call them

I went to their factory in SG buloh, not easy to locate.

Seen this door there, aluminium framework with steel mesh, price around RM 145 sqft, I asked for the door in the gallery, price is RM 6-7K for 5 ft wide.

Hi cwtien,

I went to their SG buloh factory, located in SG buloh, feels like a movie set on post doomday in earth. Those who are used to pavilion mall will get a shock.

Got their quotation at RM 125sqft for steel mesh sliding door, and with my long sliding glass door now at 22 ft, it will cost me RM 18K for full added protection. Got quotation for wrough iron galvanised powercoated grille from 3 Kim, about RM 7.3K and mosquito net from vitally, comes up to RM 2.5K: total RM 10 K.

So it is 18 k solution vs 10 k solution. But the arxtech guy said that they can build 4 panels of mesh sliding door, instead of 6 panels (currently, my condo got 6 panels of glass sliding door), leaving 2 fixed end glass panel unprotected but offered armorshield film to protect the glass from another vendor armorshield. 4 panel of steel mesh comes up to RM 12K. Now RM 12k vs RM 10k solution. With motion detector spotlight and alarm system, thief will be long gone before reaching the glass sliding door.

I think for a condo it is fine as thief need to pass main security with registration, and use passcard with CCTV to gain entrance to main building, not for house.

wow, that is not a cheap door. Oh well, thank you very much for the reply. Will try to find arxtech and 3Kim to see if they have better options

Try magestec at curve 2nd floor, they have a cheaper similar door coz mesh steel is 0.9 mm, see their video for demo. But arxtech is 1.2 mm mesh steel. According to majestec, 0.9 is good enough.

To be honest, more probably don't really need all this security thingy. There are many ways of entering the house other than through glass. Also depend on your area and security guard. I am staying in 2 stories terrace, some neighbours doesn't even bother on grill and just normal glass.

Fujisash is in Taman Megah area, it is a mosquito net aluminium Japanese firm.

SKB Shutters are not keen on home property owners, tried to make several appointments ... But sales guys only available during weekdays Looks like they are more into commercial properties lime the shutters for shoplots

Your area is GnG ? Mind to PM which area is it ?wondering whether I can do the same for.my neighborhood

Yea is GnG. My area in Puchong. My neighbor even better with all wooden frame and 100% no grill

Hi,

anybody know supplier who sell this kind of Japanese sliding door? Thanks for the help !

Was in the home love expo and check out some of the folding door. So far mostly quote for RM65 per sq feet. Is really crazy expensive

Thanks to this forum, I just did my aluminium window with Superior Home & Shower in Bandar Puteri Puchong.

Pretty good workmanship, the window was solid and sturdy. Got a really good price as well, HALF of what other shops quoted me.

The salesperson Tommy (0173246091) was very friendly and professional.

Highly recommended!
