Should the windows (awning/sliding) windows have locks on them or was this an upgradeable item? Our windows went in yesterday and had a squizz today and noticed there were not locks. For some reason i thought it was just as standard feature. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the quick responses guys! We too have the complete promo. i know on the flyer in the fine print it only states the flyscreens being included (excl louvre and bifold) but for some reason i thought they were included. I seem to think i saw them on display at Hopetoun (although i could be wrong) so didn't think further about it. Otherwise, i'll have to visit bunnings and do the old dowel stick trick for the time being Cheers, M Building Waldorf 44 with PD Feel free to follow our build progress - http://melnrobsknockdownrebuild.blogspot.com/ Re: Porter Davis homes 1779May 15, 2011 5:47 pm We had our electric appointment a few days ago and were informed that we are no longer allowed to have down lights in the house because of a new legislation. Is this true ? has this legislation affected people who have finished electrical appointment but are yet to start their construction ? Cheers, J & C Re: Porter Davis homes 1780May 15, 2011 6:09 pm Hi J & C, No down lights at all, that’s odd!! We had our electrical over a week ago now we didn’t get any down lights so cant help you there sorry but we were told we couldn’t have as many flood lights as we wanted because there would be too many watts which will make our house not a 5 star house so we took one off and replaced with a junction box in instead (If we put one in later its ok). I think if you pay your $1000 deposit after May then all PD houses are now 6star homes so this may affect it, but I am only guessing!
