Most metal companies do screen doors. They will come and measure and install either a sliding or push to open door like this one. A double door like this would cost about 6,500 Baht installed. The metal pattern used will normally be the same pattern as the window security metal in the house. (23-Aug-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

There are various companies that do security metal and screen installation. A 100 square meter house will run about 20,000 Baht to have security metal and screen installed throughout. Security metal comes in a number of different patterns, which can be selected from a book or designed by the customer. One advantage to a simple design like the one shown is it is easy to clean, having a minimum of surfaces. (08-Jul-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

They measure and cut it on-site and then install it. After installation they will caulk each window opening. Window installation in a 100 square meter house will cost about 3500 Baht. The window glass can be ordered in various tints.dozerSep 28, 2011
