Just an update on height of the shower as im over 180cm tall. Found that with the shower height on the pole had to be right up against the shower which has been annoying.

Good news is that it's easily fixed. Unsrew a Phillips head move the angle of the holder them tighten. Job done...

Hi Bruce

I’m sure I want to like this post, but am a little confused by what bit you changed.

Do you have a adjustable rail shower or a rose on a fixed arm?

Cheers
Charlotte

Hi guys, just a quick question (someone confused us at the homeshow)

For the alfresco sliding doors, do we get additional lines outside the doors by default? if we need to add flyscreens or security doors in the future? I was at the homeshow and asked invsi guard about their security sliding doors for alfresco doors and they asked me to check with PD if they are adding in the extra rails outside...

can someone check in the existing build or has someone added crimsafe/invisiguard to their alfresco sliding doors?

What type of sliding doors are you getting standard or boutique

You need to speak to A&L windows. My understanding of the boutique doors is you can only have the s curve type flexible screen that does not come with crimsafe. Crimsafe with a lock is an option on standard doors.

I do not believe they come as standard, we have added flycreens to our sliding doors, so we will get the doors with the extra rail.
I understand PD will only install the doors with the extra rail if your purchase the fly screens, otherwise they only install the basic door frame.

OH NO... our file was supposed to be handed over to construction last week, because of the changes we made last month its now pushed to end of April..

Dont think I can request any more changes.. the area we are going to construct is in the west and brand new ... thought adding crimsafe to alfresco and rumpus sliding doors was a good idea..

Dunno what the guys are crimsafe/invisi guard are gonna say!!!!!! such a drama.. didnt even think to ask these questions to PD. they should take the responsibility to educate first home buyers like us....

We purchased our screens from A&L and the price includes delivery and installation.

We have a 2 panel for a 3 panel sliding door. You can get standard or locking and choose from std fiberglass, petscreen or crimsafe screens.

If you give your address they will have all your window details.

A&L website say you can get flyscreens for boutique sliding doors, although they have limited sizes

Fongeo · Apr 08, 2018 3:21 pm

Is this for the boutique ones or the normal. Inphaze has done it on his normal ones.

Correct we have fly screens on our standard sliding doors
I have just read on the A&L website that they do have fly screen options available for a limited range of the Boutique sliders. One of our friends had Boutiques installed during a Reno, but forgot to ask for flyscreend and was not able to add them afterwards because the additional rail was not present.

We have Boutique sliding doors and didn’t even think about the need for fly screens and now it is too late to add them.

They do curtain doors but I dont think they are in crimsafe and I dont think you can lock them.
