gravelrash Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Just received a quote for rationel to supply windows and doors- 23m of glass total which includes a 4m bi-fold and quoted £17500...is this excessive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeSharp01 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Rationel is usually competitive, I think if you go back to Rationel itself, rather than the agent you got the quote from, and ask them pass you on to another agent so you can get another quote. Or just send your spec to an Internorm or Gaulhofer and see how it compares with their equivalents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProDave Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 That does sound a lot for 3 windows and 3 large door sets. My guess is the doors are the expensive bit. I paid about £8K a few years ago for one French door pair, two single doors, and 10 windows of varying sizes. The first price given was not their "best price" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 We have 71m2 of windows (including two 2.8m x 2.4m sliders) and 8m2 of entrance doors on order currently from Rationel (through a local dealer). Including installation and cills we are paying £380 / m2. Cills were about £1,500 from memory and although the current dealer hasn't split it out, from a quote from an earlier Rationel dealer (who went bust) the installation was about £5,000. So without installation and cills we'd pay about £300 / m2 supply only. Yours seem very expensive @ £760 / m2 supply only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taff Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Haven’t quite worked out cost per meter however we purchased these for 30k installed. Aluminium clad. Not sure if price is good or not! Scared to look. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All in we're about £380 per sqm for Auraplus triple that includes some large panes with angled cuts and two sets of 4830 x 2100 sliders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got Rationel windows and doors (will dig out the £/m2 when I get chance) but our agent advised an alternative to Rationel bi-folds as they were 're-badged' from a different manufacturer, so we've got Solarlux bi-folds.
