What is your point Already made my point clear...people know things so you know not just you..not sure why you still lingering on this?? While people depending in their pockets chooses whatever they want...one man's food is another man's poison...i dont fancy this at all... would be too heavy as prison gate....this is what i used for my house below...it works for me...cheers

hehehehehehehe. You don't know what's going on bro


I have seen someone who used wrought iron pipe with 14 guage pan front and back. That door is a heavy as eh.
Another one use 6mm pan and U channel instead of 3by1½ pipes. This door na four people load am for motor.

That your door is a cheap something and going out of model. The attached picture is my painter working last Sunday

dongc:
alright man, i am not so far away from home at least i know whats up and how things works and unnecessary bureaucracy....again you are mentioning wrought iron up and down like its a thing for the plates ?are they not marketing galvanized steels sheets to you and call it wrought iron. those design are engraving or cuts not molds....enough said....

i do wish you well man i hope you get jobs here so to show case all those your fine designs....all the best and good luck...ciao

I just got this picture from an iron dealer in Onitsha. The price of this go buy at least three doors and we're just talking about the pan alone oh. Let's say you decide to pair it with wrought pipe and frame it with at least 16mm pan because of the weight. At the back will be translucent glass or another pan. We're looking at upwards of 90,000. But one thing is that it will last longer than any foreign door you know about that costs less than 500,000

kopell:
You should understand that the guy no very well what is taking about, he already posted what others are not familiar with to proof his point . It is better to listen and learn, most people on this platform are professionals in different levels that one can ever imagine.

exactly why I asked. This is a faceless forum where you can learn and unlearn.

dongc:
This is someone else thread i do not want to derail it with irrelevance but trust me i know about metal works...spent more than 5years at pressverket...i am highly skilled engineer and work at a known car company in Gothenburg...google that you will find out which....

cheers.

see bros. One thing you need to understand is the Nigerian terrain for doing business no good. Unfortunately for we the consumers, we pay the price but those importers are enjoying it. I don't sell these stuff, all I do is buy and work with them. To import the machines you talked about and get the mould making these designs no be small thing around here

dongc:
Is that relevant or you need to know my job to access if I am knowledgeable to know anything I am saying?? If let me know why you need that information...i would tell you what i do

I need to know your job to know if you're knowledgeable enough to know these things.

PS I'm not an iron dealer. I'm a welder. I just buy these materials and work with them.

Mgbadike80:
it's for an extended family of about 20 people only.

four tanks of 1000 liters or five tanks of 750 liters. The height of the building will determine the height of the tank

Mgbadike80:
please, what size of water storage tank can last a family needs for two weeks if filled up? it's for village use and i wouldn't want it to be refilled more than once or twice during the two week period. thanks

what's the size of the building and the number of people in the family. Do you intend to give neighbors a tap or two

Rivers State see your mate

I don't understand why you should be telling people that their pastor is a scam. Wetin concern you,them beg you for advice. It's their money and so they will decide what to do with it. No be person Dem born man e say e want be woman. Na ordinary money paper we're talking about here. Biko dey well

It's Sunday and we are working round the clock to ensure we make deliveries and not delay your projects.

My painter doing his work

amosblisz:
Is the Versace design a door? if yes what make? Nigeria or.....

yes boss. It's made from wrought iron. From start to finish is wrought iron but depending on your budget,we can use normal 1.5mm pipes which will reduce the price significantly too.

I just got this picture from a dealer in Onitsha

InaNla:
Like he performed in Lagos


Bloody capitalist!

what's wrong with capitalism

Bikonu why are we like this. Like is stealing and corruption printed into our DNA. I buy face masks for #50. Why should someone supply same for #20500. We need a strong person who will be willing to sanction the death of anyone found guilty of corruption. This issue has gone on for far too long

nurain150:
Yes he his what you called.him..yes he his this he his that.
Look at what happened in computer village both the guy and the girl had fault indecent dressing among our tennagers is Norm I see 13 year old already sexualizing.It what the media teaches us.Had it been you were a more knowledgeable person without shallow views and feminist thread.You should have seen better.But it a pity that people like you think they have mouth.Any way I leave the reply for Op.
Let me burst your brain Goan watch Netflix cuties.And see what the world is turning to,. Nevertheless the girl is very stupid to follow a guy home at that age.It not called rape it called consent.And as for the guy it their type that will still be branching jpint at 50.Op you have no blame for starting this thread.Only feminist will say you had.

Bros eh. With people like you, there's a big problem in Nigeria aswear. Make I no lie you

Thanks for the enquires, we're glad it comes for it encourages us to do more.

Good morning and enjoy the new week

coldcandy:
Oga, just paste the price on your product and negotiate the transportation to where ever.
I remember you posting that you have not gotten any sales from this forum. That should tell you that your modus oparandus isnt working. Your location is already a minus. How do one transport one gate from nnewi to lagos or abuja?

I don't know how to explain this thing to you oga. My work is per your requirement. Iron comes in different sizes and quality. What you want is different from what another person wants. There's 1mm to 5mm pan and same thing goes about pipes too. There's no way they can all be same prices. There are also different types of pipes from wrought to the usual ones we all use. These things affect the prices. If there's something I posted that you like, contact me and we will see how we can make it fall into your budget. I don't sell finished products like cars rather I buy raw materials to make them so I can't pretty much fix the price.


Your choice is what determines my price. Thanks for your understanding.


About the transport issue, my location maybe far from you but it's close to another person. Just like you say Nnewi is far from you, that's how I feel about you being far from me but one advantage I have is that Nnewi is a transport hub due to the Nkwo market. A door from here to Lagos is less than 3k and I know this, even with the addition of transport fare, it's cheaper than what they sell in places like Lagos and Ogun State. Why not contact me and we will work things out

And about my job, it will definitely come. No rushing in this life

Focusmind:
My brother, na small build on kobo kobo basis. Just that I love nature die. My compound before I started was waterlogged with aquatic life. You would be hearing sounds of frog and other small marine lives

During foundation, I left a tiny portion of that swamp water as I would want to culture it an make it a tiny fish pond just to watch the fishes swim because that was what I met when I bought the land. I saw tiny fish fingerlins, (I hope I got the name right) and frogs. Even monitor lizards.

nature is the biggest work of art and the most beautiful too

TheSourcerer:
It is why when we hear reports of mass murder, like Nikolas Cruz’ murder of 17 students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida in the US state of Miami, we are often shocked.

It is so easy to overlook when one does not know that this is a reality that we have lived, albeit in a different form, in the past, and more recently that we would permit ourselves to admit.

Here are 5 of the deadliest mass killings in Nigerian history, for those who wish to remember that death has always been a part of our history.

1. Odi Massacre: (Death Toll: 43–2,500)

On November 20, 1999, soldiers of the Nigerian army clashed with local militias and civilians in Odi, a town with a predominantly Ijaw population, in Bayelsa State.

The clash came against the backdrop of ongoing conflicts by the people of the Niger-Delta and their rights to the proceeds of their region’s oil wealth.

In the weeks before, the conflict had taken on a fatal dimension; twelve members of the Nigerian police were murdered by a gang near Odi, seven on November 4 and the remainder in the following days.

To quell the conflict, soldiers were sent into the town. It is from here that the accounts of what happened swerve in different directions.

The locals claim that the soldiers came into the town and murdered the inhabitants, including hundreds of women and children.

The army claims that the soldiers were ambushed on their way to the town.

Either way, on entering the town, they became locked in a fierce gun battle with the resident militants. There are claims that the militants used civilians for cover.

When the army was finished, every building in the town, except the Anglican church and the local health centre, had been burned to the ground.

The government put the death toll at 43, claiming that eight soldiers had been killed. Nnimmo Bassey, Executive Director of Environmental Rights Action, claims that nearly 2500 civilians were killed

The massacre happened during the tenure of President Olusegun Obasanjo and till this day, the people of the South-South accuse him of ordering the raid.

The Odi massacre left a scar on the residents of that region, and it has been referenced in movies and songs by Timaya and African China.

this is a sad one but it tells you what the military are capable of doing when on orders. Imagine that no single house was left standing in the whole town. That's very scary

Focusmind:
What you have there is what I have in mind. I am not a fan of covering the whole compound with concrete.

If I see way sef, I will grass the whole compound. Only the section where my car will park will be concrete. The walk way is going to be grass and concrete slabs at regular intervals of the walkway.

We are not used to green environment in Nigeria as we lack maintenance culture in Nigeria. People are here saying lack of time. What lack of time? Bring out 1hour on Saturday or Sunday and you will keep your lawn well mowed. I am also a core environmentalist.

Since I am on a kobo kobo budget, I have already planted coconut trees and other plants round the compound for them to be growing pending when there is money to continue with the building.

My fence is not plastered. I planted wall carpet grass and the grass have started covering the fence wall. My intention is that the whole wall will be covered green. Though it will take years to cover the whole fence. I am ready to use the long scissors to be trimming them down once in a while.

I don't know your house but I will want to be an occupant. How you defined it dey totori me already

Liftkid:
Girls dey your hood nah

who asked you?

I said some are single are searching,did I make it personal

Una dope like this together. Make your sisters know some people are still single and searching

EgunMogaji2:
I have no issues with you Sir and we can't all be the same. I am sure that your business model works for you. It won't work for me.

Good luck Sir.

PS: I don't negotiate my on my services and sales and it has cost me some sales I'm sure. But my business model is to have one fixed price.

my business model is to ensure that everyone I come across leaves happier than he or she came. So whenever you need my services, just hit me up. I will give you one fixed price which I promise will be very comparably competitive.


Thanks for your advice. We're still willing to learn more

spyder880:
Then starting the decking of this house..........

just so you know boss we still in the business of making your home secure and yet look beautiful. Whenever you want, holla at us and we will present our services. This pent house will be needing quality works which is what we intend to do for you

dongc:
.we have many oswak cnc cutter that can engrave and cut up 4 inch thick metal in 3sec.....those importers and marketers are just reaping people off ..i tire oo [b]i know machines are expensive but they are investment which would yield over time [/b]but they intend to milk people in deceit and as soon as possible before people bust their bubble .
impatience is driving them to extra high prices...soon other would join the business with cheaper and efficient machine....church go dimiss

if you don't mind me asking, what do you do for a living

EgunMogaji2:
You’ll never have my business then. No biggie to you I’m sure.

well actually it's a biggie to me that you don't even make enquires about my work.

Negotiations are norms. Let's take for instance, my cost of working for someone around me isn't same for me working afar cause I will have to factor cost of transport and other things. The most important part is that you tell me what you can pay and if it's ok for me, I will do a diligent job which you will appreciate.


The picture in question, you can choose for the legs to be 3" while another person will want something with 2". They can't be the same price sir

padi94:
Well by Nigerian standard... cos this isn't an achievement for a country that earns over 100billion dollars annually.

What can we say, but thank God this is done

please how do we earn over $100bn annually. How much is our annual budget which includes insane borrowing and loan repayment plans

n3xt:
This is one area I have issues. I don’t know how to negotiate. Just give me most reasonable pricing and let me know if there are any other things that makes your job different.

Two of my close friends lost a bid on my ongoing project because of pricing. One wanted to do plastering for 1.8m and the person who got the job charged 800k.

Maybe me sha

I don't about plastering business but when it comes to my work, you will have to negotiate. Someone might want same thing as you but with less customization and his choice of materials less. Meanwhile someone else will be willing to go all out to get the best.

So how I run my business is to play out all the scenario and customization which are possible and then let you choose. But whatever thing you choose is EXACTLY what I will use

n3xt:
True. That’s the bitter pill.

well in the face of the competition and plethora of goods, some will still want to pay premium and get premium services. So I hope when you invest in this business, you can be one of those


Modified post.

Just imagine what Nigeria structures will look like if these type of works adorn them.
To think we came from the last picture on this post some years back to here is ama

n3xt:
I’m investing in that biz soon.

Nigerians just like milking people dry. I learnt a sheet is done 40k and above here.

hehehehehehehe. Demand is driving the prices crazy. Once there are more investors, two things are certain. The prices and quality will drop. The later is the biter pill the society will have to swallow

n3xt:
My hand can’t reach this now. I have a 16 metre sidestep to do.

you know there's always a room for negotiation. And this is a new product in the market so importers are making a kill until it becomes rampant. Why not contact us so we can reach a favorable place for us both.

Thing about this product is that you can't help yourself but love it

n3xt:
I really love your work and business acumen. Keep it up bro! Your big job is coming.

On this particular job, the local welder got the upper hand with his pricing and nearness to the site. He’ll be mobilized this morning.

How much per linear metre is the sidestep below? I really wish you would handle this job but the other guy too na my gee �

Thanks for your understanding bro.

for you to appreciate my works is enough for me at this point. And the price for the rails is 65,000 per meter depending on your customization.

Our business is open to criticism and suggestions. What do you think we should do to improve this brand and be better. We're open to hearing your advice

siralos135:
Do you make tank stand?
To carry a tank of 2000 litres capacity.
What's the price and can you travel to make it?

sorry for the late reply sir. Yes we do standing tanks. So far it's standing tanks,we must travel to your site to do it. Contact me on 07032fourfour6904 so we can discuss better.

Attached is the picture of what I think you want. But the height and quality of materials will determine the final price
