WA Window import

Hi all,
starting a new build in WA soon and I'm looking for someone to share a container , importing windows and doors from Chinese Co Feilong group anyone interested please contact me

Bugger, I'm looking to import same to Brisbane

Have you checked container prices lately
they have skyrocketed not to forget the shipping delays.
Local manufactured windows in contrast are now cheap

Thanks for the info can you recommend a local supplier that is likely to match on price and quality

I was talking with an acquaintance in the industry, he was a BDM for a window manufacturer that sourced there windows out of China, he gave it away after 6 months as it was to hard to deal with the manufacturing arm in China, kept stuffing up sliding panels and fixed panels and hinged doors the wrong side etc. Would take another 10 weeks to replace the wrong products and shipping was on the importer, container freight has doubled in price. What happens when a lock or rollers or hinges die? I'm not sure you will get replacements, also have to make sure that they are to Australian standards.

If you go local there are some great manufacturer's, Jason Windows have the majority of the perth market, open windows and doors make a very nice frame as well, I would stick clear of Upvc as they aren't proven in Australian conditions but that's only IMO.

Good luck

Affinity Windows is another option in WA

Not the greatest window and terrible after sales
