| Post subject: | Security Doors |
I want to replace my warped wooden front door with a proper security door. I also want to replace the door frame and side windows with glass block. I did a search on "puertas de seguridad costa rica" and called RamDoors. The guy answered in Spanish and quickly switched to very good English. He quoted me $1,389 for the door itself. Now, I know I can buy one in EPA for about $600. I asked him if that included the frame and all labor. He said NO, just the door! I'm not sure what I should be looking at in prices but I suspect this guy is on the high side. Does anyone have experiences good or bad? |

I decided on a company called Besafe Doors. They quoted me about $900 for the door (wood with metal reinforcement). It has spines that go up, down and sideways. They are also taking out the frame and surrounding wood and windows and installing glass block. The whole job is around $1500. This amounts to $900 for the door, $100 in weatherproof paint, $350 in materials (glass block, gurder and cement) and $250 in labor. they say it will take 2 full days to install. The other quotes I received were closer to $2,000. I had a guy quote me $600 just for labor. |
