putting a door in where a window is

[Sammie]

hi,

in order for me to get to my balcony i have to climb out my window! sounds strange i know but i was told that was the duplex design, funny thing is i'm the ONLY one who has not got a door to their balcony even though my balcony is bigger than some!.

My question is does anyone know how much it would cost for me to put a door in place of the window? I have a 10 year home bond on the structure of the duplex but would putting in a door make this invalid??

thanks

Hi Sammie, you could be looking at 2k+ depending on which company you go for as prices vary from company to company.
Your Homebond warranty should not be affected by changing a window to a door as its a very straight forward knock out to accommodate patio doors/French doors.
Just be wary of who you get to do the work as cheapest is not always best.

Good Luck

thanks for your reply. the builders are still working on site so i might see if they have any suggestions.
