The roof windows, and the wrong door

When visiting the house, it seemed that the doors was in place. We also saw that the roof windows on the side was in place.

This is what it looked like from the inside.

It was not until we came inside, that we noticed that the rest of the roof windows (including the window balcony) had also been installed.

We also saw that the front door was not in place, only the side light, and some provisory boarding in order to keep the weather out.

It turned out that the wrong door had been delivered, the one we got had the wrong kind of windows in it - a single round one, instead of three squarish ones. And it was supposedly a six week delivery time on the doors. We’ll have to wait and see.

The side door (no picture) is currently what they call a “construction door”; in order not to ruin the real door they put in a temporary one during the construction, so that it does not matter if it gets dented or scratched. I assume our construction door had been in use somewhere else, because it was quite scarred already.

So, this weekend we will not be able to get into the house, because it will be locked up, and we will actually not get the keys until the entire house is finished.

Of course, if we visit during working hours, and ask nicely, Dan the Builder might just let us in to take a few more pictures.

  1. Jag har en idol - Dan the Builder!
    Så var snäll mot honom, för det var väl inte hans fel, det där med dörren?

  2. Nej då, han bara snickrar ihop alla delarna som generalentreprenören beställt enligt konstruktörens ritningar.

    Och han såg på ritningarna att det skulle vara en annan sorts dörr, så han lät bli att montera den felaktiga. Så får vi se hur länge den riktiga dröjer... Kanske nån på ett annat bygge råkat få "vår" dörr?
