Sidetrack from but I did the same with my renovation contractor, and ended up screwing everything. Because many contractors only specialize in 1 or 2 things, so end up they sub out to the cheapest subcons who will bring problems. Maybe for ID and cabinetry it will be ok though.

Well he's kinda a reputable ID, won a few (local) awards here and there.

They have their own carpentry yard. And yes i have went to a few of their current projects to see the finishing, not just look at photos.

The only gripe was he is very resistant to certian ideas form me which he feels will "spoil" his art piece hahaha... like how I insist on fans he keep trying to convince me no tongue.gif

I was thinking how to cut this mesh thing and came up with an idea.
Put a thick sharp rail in the mesh to create bigger hold, then use pliers to start cutting. I wonder if the shops let me try my idea.

Surely this is possible.
But cutting this mesh is definitely slower than conventional metal grille.
Anyway, if you are aiming for high security, mesh is not the product.

Sure cost a bomb! My friend introduced me to Mesh Secure (Majestec I guess) and I called David... so I quickly did measurements of the windows I wanted to install and roughly calculation it is at least 25k to cover all openings sweat.gif but well not an official quote yet.Intermediate terrace house je, minimal windows versus semi-d or bungalows. He did recommend to install only on open and close windows while those fixed ones just go with secure tint instead... but looks a bit weird.

But on the side note, how's the quality so far? Build is good? I'm also looking for competitors to compare prices. My new home is a gated and guarded, will be fitted with alarm and CCTV so am thinking to grab these mesh instead of grill so it doesn't look like so "confined" with the metal bars.

These are the alternatives I googled in Malaysia...

I see... so its a matter which has better quality then given similar pricing.

Glass plus mesh, meaning you changed the whole window? Instead of add on?

Hmm guess I will get all of them to quote me... and probably should wait for one of the fairs then see if any special deals.

During the first MCO, I managed to secure a super deal for RM57 psqft from an unknown vendor.

Immediately ordered for my folding side and swing front doors, total 130sqft.

The outcome is definitely much better than those security mesh grille from mosquito net vendors. Visually, I don't see much difference comparing to panther protect product too. No idea with optima.

Anyway, the deal is over and price is back to about RM100 psqft. If you are looking for great deal, it may happen anytime during this pandemic.

Yes, changed the existing glass window as well. Got the laminated glass for my bedroom as it has very good sound insulation ...
