Automatic Motorised Gates

Automatic gates were once an expensive luxury, however, these days they have become very affordable and low maintenance.  If you are currently in the process of building a house and would like to enhance you property with an automatic gate, please contact us to get a quotation.  We can also retrofit existing gates, be they slide open or swing open.

We recently took a small job to supply and fit an automatic motorised gate for a client in Laos.  We were asked to construct the gate frame, fit the motor and gear equipment and complete all of the necessary wiring.  Wooden planks will be added to complete the gate by the owner at the same time as his boundary wall is completed by his current builder in Laos.

We have also installed automatic gates to our two projects in Thip Thani.

5 Bedroom detached home

It has been a while since I lost posted to the blog, primarily because we have been so busy with our latest projects.  One of which is the design of this large 5 bedroom family home which is soon to be built just outside Nong Khai town centre.

The client came to us with pictures of a number of houses that they liked and we designed the home taking design cues from those initial ideas, whilst designing a custom floor plan specific to their requirements.  The house has 315 sq.m of internal area and features two large bedroom suites on the second floor, plus two on the ground floor.  There is also guest accommodation with lounge, bedroom and bathroom, located above the car parking area complete with it's own stairs access from the main house.

River front pool villa

Another project that we carried out the design for was a pool villa situated right on the Mekong river between Nong Khai and Tha Bo.  This two ensuite bathroom home consisted of large open plan living area set around a decked pool area enjoying views across the mekong river.  For a better view of the river, the home also featured a shaded roof top terrance.

Low cost 2 bedroom bungalow

We were recently approached by a client who had a plot of land in Laos on which he wanted to build a relatively low cost 2 bedroom bungalow.  He had already arranged a local builder, but wanted us to carry out the design and engineering of the home and produce a set of plans.  The home consists of two bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, large living spaces and both an indoor and outdoor kitchen with two balconies.  We have completed all of the plans the client is due to begin construction with his own builder soon.

Nong Khai Design Services

At Nong Khai Design, we offer a complete design and build service and can take your dream home, develop the design, carry out necessary structural engineering, submit plans for planning approval and build your home.  We can also help you find the land on which to build.  Once built we offer interior design and garden landscaping services.   However, we can also help you with any particular phase of the design and build process, whether you already have plans and just need a builder, or maybe you have a builder and need a set of plans.

I tend to blog here specifically about our own projects, but I shall start to add more of the projects in which we are involved shortly under the category of 'Other Projects'.
