👍🏻 Will consider then
I never explore ss before, so won't know the grade given to me, but i see some neighbour 304 more shiny and nicer physically
Mild steel nowadays very soft and low quality, how's yours?

i went for powder coat-ed

because no point to spend 2x on condo door

Why say so?

I see quite many of theirs neighbour also use SS, probably 30-40% there

But some maybe cheaper grade, 2k+, after few yrs seems very dull colour, lower grade i guess

because no matter how it will still degrade and went bad ..just slower than powder coat

Depends on the ss grade mostly
304 i think can last easily 20-30 yrs

with 2x price

i rather after 15 years ; replace another powder coat grill with much better design

Thats true, depends on preferences too

Bear in mind, 15 yrs later mild steel grill maybe more expensive than the stainless steel price now, with much less quality too

true

but if count in value if offset with inflation ..thats about the same

and we might have technology breakthrough will offered cheaper and much stronger than degraded steel
