10 months ago I completed a house in Issan. At the time I bought what I thought was good bathroom fixtures (chrome finish from Germany) and good doors. The wood with carving that you have all seen.
These were bought from a major home improvement store.
Here is the problem:
Doors are very warped (had applied stain and polyurethane when new) All fixtures are very corroded, and I am unable to fix that.
Does anyone have any idea what would cause these problems, and what I can do in the future?
I will have to get new doors, so I guess metal framed glass.
Any suggestions?
Thai doors? They wrap.... did you paint them on both sides? A good door is made of oven dry wood. If not, it wrap. You can buy cheap board doors...... instead of spending so much money to full hard wood doors. Yah, you can buy real doors, indeed ping ping..... up to you.

Aluminum slide doors perhaps?

The moisture in the air in Thailand is....70 till 90% or what? Everything gets f@cked up here, nothing stays nice, everything cracks.

Lower your expatiations, it's Thailand. I did the same, think Thai. Save your money.
