    Just go in for 8mm or 10mm frame less tempered glass door. That will give u exactly the vibe u want. 'Fa eka to eka so'

    I hear your pain and frustration.
    Why should you pay for their mistake.
    Some of these artisans in ghana or Africa do not think through before doing a project .

      hmm when you don’t use their services too someone somewhere who don’t know anything about building would say “support local business”

    They should have kept the full glass and change the frame bring the pivots in the middle to and down that will be neat two way entry. The next will be sliding also an option

    I don't see (technically) how dividing the glass could have solved the issue. Like they noticed, the pivot system is really the issue. It is not strong enough to hold the frame holding the glass. Adding more profile (extra weight to solve a weight bearing issue --- the math is not mathing for me) was silly for them to start with. That is a problem with our artisans - they do not think issues through before starting to fix the problem. I am sorry for your pain, Elvis.

    I think it is high time we started demanding what we paid for. Artisans get away with "Fa nu sah" mentality we have in Ghana and that needs to stop. You mess it up, you should fix it.

      ​@@ElvisBenson; unfortunately, that is the reason why I am getting my finishing stuff done in China. Ghana artisan will say "I can do it" and then mess it up, the factory that worked on my pivot door and the window factories I am dealing with in China started the process with designs. Show me you can do it, don't tell me.

  • @Bilegagn
    @Bilegagn 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Could it also be because of the kind of hinge used? I say get the hinge from somewhere or outside and let them make it a straight glass as you wanted it to be. Settling makes the artisans too comfortable to NOT want to improve with things they’ve never done before. If I need it, we will have to search high and low to find it and use it. Sometimes you gotta stand your grounds and be the elephant with its back to wall for the elephant fight

      Local artisans never learn or do more research they always use their outmoded theories to deal with any issue…i messed up by allowing them get away with this hmm.
