chookchook2, thank you, I was having an anxiety attack thinking I was about to make a horrible mistake both visually and financially, my builders who were hanging the doors said they were going against everything by hanging them with the shorter panels at the top, (upside down) M.M didn't want to get involved and frankly couldn't see a difference? neither could my daughter? I have an older Queenslander home and the doors were already being cut down to a non standard size, I thought this made them more obvious, like hobbits were living here? I had to post on FB to get another opinion as well because he was going to charge me by the hour and the cost of 3 new doors, but he managed to flip them over and trim them again to fit. I am so glad I stayed to keep an eye on things, otherwise right now I would be terribly disappointed. I still can't upload the finished pics?

Hi Sarah, You can go for alternative stone cladding from Boral called Cultured Stone. They are great products and can be installed by most stone masons on brick or rendered walls.

Thanks guys, I appreciate your help! I tell you what, it goes to show how important photography is, I looked at the Parisi website, although the basins may be nice they do not 'sell' themselves like Omvivo does with their photographs.
