If you need new windows for your house here in Aruba, I can HIGHLY recommend Builder Systems. I ordered the windows and they were finished on time. Their installer is a separate contractor and he has done a great job getting them into the old shack I live in here. It's not been easy as every one of the old windows is a little different and getting the opening squared off is a serious challenge. Nonetheless, the project has gone well.

I have two doors that will be installed next week. These vinyl framed like the windows and quite sturdy.

Here's a quick link to the old and new: http://bentpage.wordpress.com/2010/0...ore-and-after/

Looking forward to someday being done with this shack.

All the windows and doors are now securely fitted. A very nice finish job by the installer and his helper. I worked with them most of the day to lend an extra hand. It was tricky going given the old walls. Once the new concrete thoroughly dries, I'll be able to paint the place and it'll start to look like a lived-in casa as opposed to a choller house.

Bon dia.
