You are never gonna stop them using the toilet, they can leave as many notes/signs whatever but the tradies will still use it. The tradies used by building companies dont…

I have a Waldorf 48 with the void around the stairs, all the heat from downstairs goes straight up the void...

Does the latch have an lock/unlock mechanism on the door face, or does…

Thanks!
So that wasnt an upgrade or anything like that?
Have you asked PD yet about it?

Wouldnt mind seeing a pic of it if you could get one.

It must be a seperate latch assembly?
I dont see how the paradigm lock could catch seeing as it doesnt seem to have a spring behind the bolt?

Hey Deefeez,

Ours was $2619, that was 1meter high dwarf wall rendered and then 700mm high modwood decking. Is this how yours was supposed to be?

Today is 11months since our site cut.... PCI Set for mid june and handover end of june....Im skeptical to say the least

Lucky you, we were told at electrical the only option was the triangle downligh things underneath the cupboards. (this was back in the hopetoun days tho)

Just to add to the confusion... Standards and tolerances states:

Just seen there is a new Waldorf 50. Anyone got any pics?

I went Polar white in standard laminate in my laundry... The rest of the house cabinets are polar white in colourtech. I really regret going to standard laminate in there.…
