When consulting about doors and windows in Malaysia, many homeowners encounter the same confusion:
Both are “aluminum alloy doors and windows”, but the price is much different. Where exactly is it expensive? What money should be spent and what can be saved? As long as the quotation structure is clear, it is not easy to be misled.
1、 The price of doors and windows is not only calculated based on “per square foot”
Many merchants only quote one unit price, but in reality, the price is composed of multiple components:
Profile system
glass configuration
Hardware accessories
Installation and waterproofing
It’s easy to be attracted by low prices just by looking at the unit price.
2、 The thickness of the profile has a significant impact on the price
In the Malaysian market:
Low price of thin profiles
Thickened profiles have significantly higher costs
Thickness directly affects stability and lifespan.
3、 Glass configuration determines performance differences
Common configurations include:
Single layer glass
insulated glass
Laminated glass
The difference in insulation and sound insulation effects is significant, and the price naturally varies.
4、 Hardware systems are often overlooked
Many low-priced doors and windows:
Use regular pulleys
The lock structure is simple
In the short term, it looks cheap, but in the long term, the maintenance cost is high.
5、 Is the installation cost worth it?
In Malaysia, professional installation typically includes:
waterproof treatment
hemming
debug
Save installation costs and make it easier to encounter problems in the later stage.
6、 How to determine if the quotation is reasonable?
Suggest paying attention to:
Is the configuration clearly written
Does it include installation and warranty
Is it a local team
