Estimation of gates or steel for doors or Window grills depends upon the length and width of the structure.
It also depends upon the design that we adopted for construction and types of joints example welding etc. So the estimation of steel gates is different for different sizes.
For small-sized windows, less quantity of steel is required thus cost decreases. and for big windows, a large amount of steel is required which increases cost.
In market door grills are of following types:
So the estimation cost of door grills is depended upon square feet area, design and types of materials used.

Rebate is a top edge cut on the stone so that it does not allow the rainwater to penetrate inside the stone mortar or joint and flows quickly from the horizontal surface of stone masonry.
Throating is a groove provided inside the cornice, sill, and coping to prevent water flows with the wall surface and allows it to discharge away from the wall surface. It protects walls from the impact of rainwater.
Chases is a stones course provided at the top of the wall. It also protects from rainwater. It is generally constructed in an ornamental design.
