New steel sills manufacture

bl52krz · 24th April 2018, 18:41

Just been browsing my life away, again my wife would say. Noticed that a company in Poland,Aparts Group Brzezowski, Klodzko, Poland, are making galvanised metal sills £49.00 if anyone is interested. Perhaps Matt DMGRS might be interested?

Mk 1 or Mk 2 ? The Mk 1's would be very popular. Do they go right underneath?

No difference between them both 😉

I thought that the drainage holes were redesigned on the Mk 2 ?

Not sure tbh, doesn’t matter as the bits that need to fit will still fit 👍

Galvanising isn’t such a good idea though on something that needs to be welded on, I’d have preferred it to be just plain old mild steel.

With the amount of sills that have been showing signs of rot perhaps a mod can pin this post somewhere until we get a definitive answer

Yes they go right underneath. They are a full sill by the look of it, full length also.

That's one way to get galvyflu. (metal fume fever)

Mild steel would have been a better choice after all the oem sills have lasted well.
