The size is 4,37m (width) x 2,06m (height). I would like them to stack on the left hand side. I'd like the frames in black and charcoal, and installation included in the quote. The current glass sliding door, and sliding metal gate would need to be removed too, which I'd like included in the quote. I live in Durban North.
We have a carport but want to change the frames because it's rusting. Need to install and build a built in braai which will form part of the entertainment area. We also want to add to that and make another room. The carports had plans years back but not sure if it is approved (but it is installed). Plans could be at Athlone Department. Everything else needs plans. Currently have a braai but needs to be broken down. Artificial grass to also be installed by the entertainment area.
The project consists of two parts. The first is a garage attached to the house with a garage door. The second part is a boundary wall and gate. We need the current structure dismantled and a new wall erected. The gate will have a small pedestrian gate attached to it and it will be a sliding gate. The attached pictures show the design we are going for.
